PAM logs(PAMlog.txt.0) are not logging under /rdklogs/logs

Hi Z-Ravindra Reddy Gundam ,

CcspPandm component routes the logs to /rdklogs/logs/PAMlog.txt.0 .For this you need to convert all C/C++ logging statements(like printf) to use standard logging functions CcspTraceInfo, CcspTraceWarning,CcspTraceError etc. CcspTraceXxxx functions are based on open-source 'log4c'.By using the above apis the logs are automatically written to logfiles. After conversion to standard logging functions ,you can verify the logs under /rdklogs/logs/PAMlog.txt.0.

You can also confirm that the log rotation service in your device is active and working as expected  by using the command ' systemctl status rdkbLogMonitor ' .Sample output from rpi:

root@RaspberryPi-Gateway:~# systemctl status rdkbLogMonitor

If Logrotation is not working ,then you can add the following code changes in uploadSTBLogs.sh file by replacing the mv command with cp:

diff --git a/lib/rdk/uploadSTBLogs.sh b/lib/rdk/uploadSTBLogs.sh
index fef8e10..284eac6 100644
