Description

Jobs run prior to TQ write into ramdisk records (because that's what's available), and when it comes up we write new records into /crypt/debug/*, but we currently don't move from the former to the latter. But we should, because otherwise those records are lost on reboot.

Research direction

Locate the code that writes job records to the ramdisk and the code that writes new records under /crypt/debug/*. Start by tracing startup and reboot-related record handling, then determine how existing ramdisk records should be moved into encrypted storage; done means pre-TQ records are preserved after reboot and new records continue using the encrypted location.
