+ * hex_dump_to_buffer - convert a blob of data to "hex ASCII" in memory
+ * @buf: data blob to dump
+ * @len: number of bytes in the @buf
+ * @rowsize: number of bytes to print per line; max 64
+ * @groupsize: number of bytes to print at a time (1, 2, 4, 8; default = 1)
+ * @linebuf: where to put the converted data
+ * @linebuflen: total size of @linebuf, including space for terminating NUL
+ * @ascii: include ASCII after the hex output
+ *
+ * hex_dump_to_buffer() works on one "line" of output at a time, i.e.,
+ * 16 or 32 bytes of input data converted to hex + ASCII output.
+ *
+ * Given a buffer of u8 data, hex_dump_to_buffer() converts the input data
+ * to a hex + ASCII dump at the supplied memory location.
+ * The converted output is always NUL-terminated.
+ *
+ * E.g.:
+ * hex_dump_to_buffer(frame->data, frame->len, 16, 1,
+ * linebuf, sizeof(linebuf), true);
+ *
+ * example output buffer:
+ * 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 4a 4b 4c 4d 4e 4f @ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO
+ *
+ * Return:
+ * The amount of bytes placed in the buffer without terminating NUL. If the
+ * output was truncated, then the return value is the number of bytes
+ * (excluding the terminating NUL) which would have been written to the final
+ * string if enough space had been available.

+ * print_hex_dump - print a text hex dump to syslog for a binary blob of data

+ * Given a buffer of u8 data, print_hex_dump() prints a hex + ASCII dump

+ *
+ * print_hex_dump() works on one "line" of output at a time, i.e.,
+ * 16 or 32 bytes of input data converted to hex + ASCII output.
+ * print_hex_dump() iterates over the entire input @buf, breaking it into
+ * "line size" chunks to format and print.
