[PATCH 0/7] tty core debug patches

[Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com>]

Hi Greg,

This patchset replaces the printk(KERN_DEBUG) uses in the tty core
with a common tty_debug(tty, ...) base macro, folding in the common
elements of tty name and function name.

The many inline #ifdef TTY_SOME_DEBUG_FLAG printk's are replaced
with macro equivalents which reduce to tty_debug().

Several important improvements include:
* patch 1/7 adds the tty count to the tty_open() message
* patch 6/7 improve the ldisc messages to aid in state debugging
* patch 7/7 adds pmtx open (which helps clarify when the master was opened)

An important outcome of a single tty_debug() macro is that it can
be trivially changed to use a different debug facility than console;
for example, for some of my torture tests using the ftrace facility
is much less intrusive. I would expect that to remain a local change though.

Regards,
