I was using "+++++"/"#####"/"*****" to filter different EC log entries which makes debugging easier.
And, if we changed this from pr_info into pr_debug, then we will have nothing in the suspend/resume logs for the EC device.
While there are plenty of such log entries for each of other devices.
So I really doubt what's the meaning of such a change.
Could it improve anything or just make debugging more difficult for developers?

Thanks and best regards

IMO, it's better to introduce such kind of code in the head of ec.c:

#ifdef DEBUG_FILTER
#define EC_LOG_DEV "+++++"
#define EC_LOG_CMD "*****"
#define EC_LOG_EVT "#####"
...
#else
#define EC_LOG_DEV
#define EC_LOG_CMD
#define EC_LOG_EVT
#endif

And wrap the pr_info, pr_debug using filter enabled new macros - ec_info, ec_debug so that we won't see the filters in the normal dmesg output and the filters are still available for the developers.

[PATCH 1/2] ACPI / EC: Cleanup logging/debugging splitter support.

[Lv Zheng]

This patch refines logging/debugging splitter support so that when DEBUG is
disabled, splitters won't be visible in the kernel logs while they are
still available for developers when DEBUG is enabled.

This patch also refines the splitters to mark the following handling
process boundaries:
  +++++: boundary of driver starting/stopping
         boundary of IRQ storming
  =====: boundary of transaction advancement
  *****: boundary of EC command

[PATCH 1/2] ACPI / EC: Cleanup logging/debugging splitter support.

[Lv Zheng]

This patch refines logging/debugging splitter support so that when DEBUG is
disabled, splitters won't be visible in the kernel logs while they are
still available for developers when DEBUG is enabled.

This patch also refines the splitters to mark the following handling
process boundaries:
  +++++: boundary of driver starting/stopping
         boundary of IRQ storming
  =====: boundary of transaction advancement
  *****: boundary of EC command
         boundary of EC query
  #####: boundary of EC _Qxx evaluation

The following 2 log entries are originally logged using pr_info() in order
to be used as the boot/suspend/resume log entries for the EC device, this
patch also restores them to pr_info() logging level:
 ACPI : EC: EC started
 ACPI : EC: EC stopped

In this patch, one log entry around "Polling quirk" is converted into
ec_dbg_raw() which doesn't contain the boundary marker.

It'd be nice to comment/document these 3 letter descriptions
a bit better here in the source code.

Maybe:

#define EC_DBG_SEP	" "
#define EC_DBG_DRV	"+++++"		/* drivers start/stop */
#define EC_DBG_STM	"====="		/* irq storm */
#define EC_DBG_REQ	"*****"		/* ec command boundary */

[PATCH 2/2] ACPI / EC: Add GPE reference counting debugging messages.

[Lv Zheng]

This patch enhances debugging with the GPE reference count messages added.

This kind of log entries can be used by the platform validators to validate
if there is an EC transaction broken because of firmware/driver bugs.

No functional changes.
