I agree. For the userspace issues, I wonder where the right place to
document debugging tips is. Centralizing them in a single location has
upsides, but there are also upsides in splitting that information and
storing it alongside the relevant guides. For instance, I wrote some
time ago a detailed guide on how to configure media pipelines (see
https://git.ideasonboard.org/doc/mc-v4l2.git/tree/). Getting a -EPIPE
error when starting the pipeline is one of the most commonly encountered
issue (https://git.ideasonboard.org/doc/mc-v4l2.git/tree/configuring-pipelines.rst#n237),
and the guide explains how to solve by walking the user through pipeline
configuration theory, as well as pointing to the relevant debugging
tools.
