List and description of areas for the SAL debug macros

This is a list of areas that are used by the SAL_INFO family of macros. See basic log functionality for details about this functionality.

If you need a debug area in some code, first check this list and use the appropriate area if it exists. This list is not definite, if you need a new area, use it and add it to an appropriate section with an explanation. Generally, use the name of the relevant code module as the first area segment. Please keep all entries sorted.

This list should give you an overview of which areas to enable when debugging certain functionality.
