Hi Badal, could you please be more specific about the questions and repeat them here?
I couldn't find from the provided url...

But as we chatted, this series doesn't change the behavior of that and
the comment of rate-limit is exactly to ensure this is documented. To
ensure it is clear dmesg is not an ABI. It should not be reliable in
any way or shape. It is simpler a helper.

On the wedge, the resolution buckets were removed, but I'm not sure
if there were more questions around that.

Our design goal here was to minimize the SIGIDs and make it per site
due to maintenability concerns.

There will be a field in the actual CPER with location and that can
also be printed in the msg if needed. In a matter of fact, this
is what we currently do anyway.

Increasing this to a per case id is a big no!

Thanks,
Rodrigo.
