1221655 - [fxos-device-service] Clear log

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Infrastructure, defect)

Description

[:Eli Perelman]

Should be able to wipe out logcat via service. Probably a DELETE request.

[:Eli Perelman]

Raptor has some special logic with regards to clearing logic and connecting to logcat. Here is a comment from the codebase:

// There are two issues with `logcat -c` on Android L: 1) it doesn't clear the
// buffer, and 2) it stops current logcat from outputting messages. This is a
// workaround to take a timestamp and use it in next logcat call, i.e. next
// start() invocation so we don't run |logcat -c| here.

So we may need to adapt the logic in the service to account for a workaround.
