  • Add additional fields for RFC 5424 messages (log.syslog.version,
    log.syslog.msgid, log.syslog.data)
  • Add log.syslog.hostname, log.syslog.appname, and log.syslog.procid
    for hostname, process name, and process ID fields present in syslog
    messages, respectively. These fields are added since it is not always
    known that user wants these values copied to the more general ECS fields
    (host.hostname, process.name, process.pid).

LGTM! Thanks for making the adjustments.

Should these changes go into 8.2?

If we could do that, that would be great! The associated syslog parser/processor is also targeting 8.2.
