Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] kexec: add kexec flag to control debug printing
Date: Fri, 19 Dec 2025 17:31:32 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251219093134.2268620-3-maqianga@uniontech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251219093134.2268620-1-maqianga@uniontech.com>

The commit cbc2fe9d9cb2 ("kexec_file: add kexec_file flag to control
debug printing") added the kexec_file flag to control debug printing.
However, for arm64, after commit 6f8c1da071a4 ("kexec_file, arm64: print
out debugging message if required"), when using the kexec_load interface,
the kexec_image_info function is called to print debug message, but
it uses kexec_dprintk, which is only available under kexec_file,
then when specifying 'kexec -d', kexec_load interface will print nothing.

For riscv, commit eb7622d908a09 ("kexec_file, riscv: print out debugging
message if required") remove kexec_image_info(), because the content has
been printed out in generic code in kexec_file_load, but not in kexec_load.

Therefore, in order to solve the two problems mentioned above, for this
patchset, several things need to be done:

1. Enabling kexec_dprintk is available for kexec_load.
2. Add some debugging message of the deleted kexec_image_info
   to generic code.
3. Remove duplicate debugging prints for arm64

Since kexec_load and kexec_file_load are not triggered simultaneously,
we can unify the debug flag of kexec and kexec_file as kexec_dbg_print.

In this way, kexec_dprintk is available for kexec_load and kexec_file_load.

The following are the key points of the specific changes:

1. rename kexec_file_dbg_print to kexec_dbg_print
2. Add KEXEC_DEBUG
3. Initialize kexec_dbg_print for kexec
4. Set the reset of kexec_dbg_print to kimage_free
