Hi,
LGTM, I appreciate this change. For testing, I fed  your sample output to this:

     perl -MData::Dumper -nae  's/^.+scmi_msg_dump:// && print Dumper
{ (map { split /=/; } split" ") }' < scmi.txt

which gives this

$VAR1 = {
          'pt' => '15',
          'seq' => '0000',
          'pyld' =>
'000000000800000009daffffffffffff008268d4c075fd1611daffffffffffff008268d4c075fd1619daffffffffffff008268d4c075fd16',
          'msg_id' => '01',
          's' => '0',
          't' => 'NOTI'
        };
which is what I wanted.   BTW, if I ever write a script that would
take this SCMI trace text and
decode it to nice cmd names and arguments -- where would I submit such a script?

Thanks and Regards,
Jim Quinlan
