Hi Pekka,
Right now, you can not enable them dynamically from the boot command
line (only via the debugfs file). However, Thomas Renninger, has posted
a series to add back the boot-time functionality, see:
Subject: [patch 0/3] Dynamic Debug providing early boot debug messages via
boot parameter
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=127970474426120&w=2
So I intend to queue those up for 2.6.36, and also update the
documentation.
thanks,
-Jason
