Commit Message

Joel Fernandes Aug. 15, 2023, 7:09 p.m. UTC
When debugging, it can be difficult to quickly find the ftrace dump
within the console log, which in turn makes it difficult to process it
independent of the result of the console output.  This commit therefore
copies the contents of the buffers into its own file to make it easier
to locate and process the ftrace dump. The original ftrace dump is still
available in the console log in cases where it is more convenient to
process it there, for example, when you have a script that processes
console output as well as ftrace-dump data.

Also handle the case of multiple ftrace dumps potentially showing up in the
log. Example for a file like [1], it will extract as [2].

[1]:
foo
foo
Dumping ftrace buffer:
---------------------------------
blah
blah
---------------------------------
more
bar
baz
Dumping ftrace buffer:
---------------------------------
blah2
blah2
---------------------------------
bleh
bleh

[2]:

Ftrace dump 1:
blah
blah

Ftrace dump 2:
blah2
blah2

Very good, and I did queue this one.

I fixed the indentation of the awk script.  Perhaps your text editor is
being too smart for our good?  ;-)

							Thanx, Paul

Thanks!  Yes the editor messing up is a possibility, I'll go look at
that, though the indent seems still messed up in your dev branch:

The line "/Dumping ftrace buffer:/ " has spaces, as does the "awk <
$1" line. Is that intentional?  All the following ones have tabs.

thanks,

 - Joel

Not intentional at all, thank you for catching it!

How about the fixup patch shown below, to be merged into the current
commit?
