For each PF do the following: 1- Allocate memory for the tracer strings database and read the strings from the FW to the SW. These strings will be used later for parsing traces. 2- Allocate and dma map tracer buffers. Traces that will be written into the buffer will be parsed as a group of one or more traces, referred to as trace message. The trace message represents a C-like printf string. First trace of a message holds the pointer to the correct string in strings database. The following traces holds the variables of the message.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
