The output is in a single line and $90 also extract with value YES that displays correctly when we do need tried to remove the sapces
Actually I am facing a problem using if condition to check the value of $90 field as below:
The value display thru above printf is YES but the length is 158. My condition always fails and print the line after else.
Kindly advice.

putctl
putctl(9F) Kernel Functions for Drivers putctl(9F)NAME
putctl - send a control message to a queue
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/stream.h>
int putctl(queue_t *q, int type);
INTERFACE LEVEL
Architecture independent level 1 (DDI/DKI).
PARAMETERS
q Queue to which the message is to be sent.
type Message type (must be control, not data type).
DESCRIPTION
putctl() tests the type argument to make sure a data type has not been specified, and then attempts to allocate a message block. putctl()
fails if type is M_DATA, M_PROTO, or M_PCPROTO, or if a message block cannot be allocated. If successful, putctl() calls the put(9E)
routine of the queue pointed to by q with the newly allocated and initialized messages.
RETURN VALUES
On success, 1 is returned. If type is a data type, or if a message block cannot be allocated, 0 is returned.
CONTEXT
putctl() can be called from user or interrupt context.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Using putctl()
The send_ctl() routine is used to pass control messages downstream. M_BREAK messages are handled with putctl() (line 11). putctl1(9F)
(line 16) is used for M_DELAY messages, so that parm can be used to specify the length of the delay. In either case, if a message block
cannot be allocated a variable recording the number of allocation failures
is incremented (lines 12, 17). If an invalid message type is detected, cmn_err(9F) panics the system (line 21).
1 void
2 send_ctl(wrq, type, parm)
3 queue_t *wrq;
4 uchar_t type;
5 uchar_t parm;
6 {
7 extern int num_alloc_fail;
8
9 switch (type) {
10 case M_BREAK:
11 if (!putctl(wrq->q_next, M_BREAK))
12 num_alloc_fail++;
13 break;
14
15 case M_DELAY:
16 if (!putctl1(wrq->q_next, M_DELAY, parm))
17 num_alloc_fail++;
18 break;
19
20 default:
21 cmn_err(CE_PANIC, "send_ctl: bad message type passed");
22 break;

24 }
