There are substantial differences in the structure of the internal disks in macOS, iPadOS and iOS, as shown here. And there are at least 24 cryptexes now used to support AI.
If you only have access to the log files of a Mac or device and can’t create a logarchive of them, this new build offers a solution, plus detailed info about a logarchive to help you browse its contents.
LogUI can now read and browse saved logarchive packages, including those from other Macs, and iOS and iPadOS devices.
You can now save log extracts to JSON files, which LogUI can read in as a log extract. Also a new Reduce tool to filter unwanted log entries.
Applying a sequence of criteria to narrow search until you find your target. How incremental search can help. The role of predicates, and how to search the log.
This compares short time intervals obtained from log entry timestamps obtained from the log show command via Ulbow, those from LogUI using OSLog, and Mach Absolute Time.
By default, the log show command and Ulbow display log entries using the time zone set when they were written to the log. Bringing consistency in a new build of LogUI.
Getting the date and time stamp of log entries to use rounded microseconds, and how to ensure a log extract uses the current time zone throughout.
It turns out that ‘nanosecond’ times introduced in LogUI are largely artefact. Is higher resolution timing really needed, and how can it be obtained?
