I'm happy to have the help. I'm thinking that rather than instrument 
one build or a specific test case, we should add something to 
yocto-autobuilder-helper on a test branch, that way we can run an 
"a-full" or "a-quick" target on the autobuilder under the test and see
if we can get any interesting data.

The autobuilders have a shared output directory we could use to collate
the information, it is exported to the environment as 
OEQA_DEBUGGING_SAVED_OUTPUT in config.json in -helper.

I think we therefore need:

a) poky-contrib branch with this change in
b) yocto-autobuilder-helper branch with the config enabled in config.json
c) a further patch to collect up any interesting data and save it to
OEQA_DEBUGGING_SAVED_OUTPUT as a post build event handler for further
analysis. We may be able to patch the existing results collection script
to do this in helper? Obviously the naming of the files on 
OEQA_DEBUGGING_SAVED_OUTPUT needs to be multi build safe.

Does that sound like a reasonable approach?

Cheers,

Richard
