Vadim, David, I would appreciate if one of you could also
take a look at this patch.

Access suggests reading, but this is a write-only file please make this more clear.

Also please document the accepted prefixes for log levels here / document
the log format.

Please replace 0x0a with '\n' .

Why len + 1, this seems intended to assume some separator
between prefix and the actual message? But if that is
the case please also check that the expected separator
character is there.

Otherwise this looks good to me.
