Could someone clarify what is supposed to be standard syslog
integration in systemd? I.e. am I right, that

- syslog.socket activates built-in systemd syslog implementation
systemd-kmsg-syslogd which simply dumps everything to /dev/kmsg

- at some point "real" syslog service is started which either takes
over or creates new /dev/log.

Is it correct?

So questions

1. as there can be only one /dev/log socket activation, real syslog
need not (and should not) supply it. It sould conflict with default
syslog.socket. Am I right?

2. how can real syslog service "take over" /dev/log? Code example? I
am not fond of idea to leave unused daemon hanging around.

Thank you!
