printk: Provide a wake_up_klogd() off-case

2013-03-22T23:41:20Z

wake_up_klogd() is useless when CONFIG_PRINTK=n because neither printk() nor printk_sched() are in use and there are actually no waiter on log_wait waitqueue. It should be a stub in this case for users like bust_spinlocks(). Otherwise this results in this warning when CONFIG_PRINTK=n and CONFIG_IRQ_WORK=n: kernel/built-in.o In function `wake_up_klogd': (.text.wake_up_klogd+0xb4): undefined reference to `irq_work_queue' To fix this, provide an off-case for wake_up_klogd() when CONFIG_PRINTK=n. There is much more from console_unlock() and other console related code in printk.c that should be moved under CONFIG_PRINTK. But for now, focus on a minimal fix as we passed the merged window already.

dynamic_debug: dynamic hex dump

2013-01-17T20:19:09Z

Introduce print_hex_dump_debug() that can be dynamically controlled, similar to pr_debug. Also, make print_hex_dump_bytes() dynamically controlled Implement only 'p' flag (_DPRINTK_FLAGS_PRINT) to keep it simple since hex dump prints multiple lines and long prefix would impact readability. To provide line/file etc. information, use pr_debug or similar before/after print_hex_dump_debug() Signed-off-by: Vladimir Kondratiev Signed-off-by: Jason Baron Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

printk: Wake up klogd using irq_work

2012-11-18T00:01:49Z

klogd is woken up asynchronously from the tick in order to do it safely. However if printk is called when the tick is stopped, the reader won't be woken up until the next interrupt, which might not fire for a while. As a result, the user may miss some message. To fix this, lets implement the printk tick using a lazy irq work. This subsystem takes care of the timer tick state and can fix up accordingly.

printk: remove the now unnecessary "C" annotation for KERN_CONT

2012-07-31T00:25:14Z

Now that all KERN_ uses are prefixed with ASCII SOH, there is no need for a KERN_CONT. Keep it backward compatible by adding #define KERN_CONT "" Reduces kernel image size a thousand bytes. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Cc: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

printk: convert the format for KERN_ to a 2 byte pattern

2012-07-31T00:25:14Z

Instead of "<.>", use an ASCII SOH for the KERN_ prefix initiator. This saves 1 byte per printk, thousands of bytes in a normal kernel. No output changes are produced as vprintk_emit converts these uses to "<.>". Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Cc: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

printk: add kern_levels.h to make KERN_ available for asm use

Separate the printk.h file into 2 pieces so the definitions can be used in asm files. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Cc: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

printk: add generic functions to find KERN_ headers

2012-07-31T00:25:13Z

The current form of a KERN_ is "<.>". Add printk_get_level and printk_skip_level functions to handle these formats. These functions centralize tests of KERN_ so a future modification can change the KERN_ style and shorten the number of bytes consumed by these headers.
