+ * This adds a log which consist of an in-memory ring buffer. The idea
+ * is that the user can configure his logging in a way that critical
+ * messages get stored in the ring buffer, and that the last few
+ * critical messages can then always obtained by dumping the ring
+ * buffer. It can hence be used as a more generic version of the
+ * "show me the last N alarms" functionality.
