Hi
Here are a few patches to add the ability to output the decoding debug log only when there are decoding errors.
This is motivated by the fact that a full log can be very large, so just getting interesting bits is useful for analyzing errors.
If necessary, the size of output on error is configurable via perf config, and perf_config_scan() was added in the 1st patch to make that simpler.
The 2nd patch adds the new option flag to auxtrace.
There are a couple of very minor and essentially unrelated changes in patches 3 and 4.
The main Intel PT change is in patch 5 and there is a small example in the commit message.
