https://treeherder.mozilla.org/logviewer.html#/jobs?job_id=211191928&repo=autoland&lineNumber=2980 has in the header at the top a "Job" link which is https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?job_id=211191928&repo=autoland&searchStr=android%2C8.0%2Cpixel2%2Cdebug%2Cmochitests%2Ctest-android-hw-p2-8-0-arm7-api-16%2Fdebug-mochitest-media-3%2Cm%28mda3%29 It displays the ten most recent pushes and the jobs of the kind of the failing one are displayed but not the one which failed if it is older.

So counter-intuitively, the "revision" link is currently the link that (once bug 1506630 is fixed at least) is meant to point to the specific job. The "job" row is the same job row that appears in the job info panel on the main jobs view (the same React component is being used in both places to reduce code duplication). The entry in the job detail panel is meant to filter by last 10 jobs, so it is currently working as "expected". I do agree that this is confusing and would be something we should perhaps tweak though.

Perhaps the link from the log viewer to the jobs view should be a button on the log viewer toolbar, outside of the job info metadata?

Yeah, this is a good idea. I'll do this. Perhaps leave the revision link as well, since people may be used to that. But remove the link for filtering by the job signature/strings. Just make it text.
