[vbox-dev] VirtualBox internal log functions

Hello everyone:

      I am reading the source code of virtualbox for several days. And
I found a series of functions with the prefix of 'Log', such as
Log2(), LogBackdoor() and so on. Nearly all of them called the
function 'RTLogBackdoorPrintf ' in the internals. According to the
comments for '', it writes the formatted string into some backdoor
ports.

      It seems that they are used for some logging works. However my
question is, how to get the logs which were generated by these logging
functions. Are there any logging related files on the disk, or
something else?

      Thanks in advance.
