Subject: [PATCH] fix 'dynamic_debug' cmd line parameter
Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2008 12:05:14 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081027160514.GA3161@redhat.com> (raw)
hi,
In testing 2.6.28-rc1, I found that passing 'dynamic_printk' on the command
line didn't activate the debug code. The problem is that dynamic_printk_setup()
(which activates the debugging) is being called before dynamic_printk_init() is
called (which initializes infrastructure). Fix this by setting setting the
state to 'DYNAMIC_ENABLED_ALL' in dynamic_printk_setup(), which will also
cause all subsequent modules to have debugging automatically started, which is
probably the behavior we want.
thanks,
-Jason
