Subject: [PATCH v13 14/36] dyndbg: reduce verbose/debug clutter
Date: Wed,  8 Apr 2026 14:01:49 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260408200211.43821-15-jim.cromie@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260408200211.43821-1-jim.cromie@gmail.com>

currently, for verbose=3, these are logged (blank lines for clarity):

 dyndbg: query 0: "class DRM_UT_CORE +p" mod:*
 dyndbg: split into words: "class" "DRM_UT_CORE" "+p"

 dyndbg: op='+'
 dyndbg: flags=0x1
 dyndbg: *flagsp=0x1 *maskp=0xffffffff

 dyndbg: parsed: func="" file="" module="" format="" lineno=0-0 class=...
 dyndbg: no matches for query
 dyndbg: no-match: func="" file="" module="" format="" lineno=0-0 class=...
 dyndbg: processed 1 queries, with 0 matches, 0 errs

That is excessive, so this patch:
 - shrinks 3 lines of 2nd stanza to single line
 - drops 1st 2 lines of 3rd stanza
   3rd line is like 1st, with result, not procedure.
   2nd line is just status, retold in 4th, with more info.

New output:

 dyndbg: query 0: "class DRM_UT_CORE +p" mod:*
 dyndbg: split into words: "class" "DRM_UT_CORE" "+p"
 dyndbg: op='+' flags=0x1 *flagsp=0x1 *maskp=0xffffffff
 dyndbg: no-match: func="" file="" module="" format="" lineno=0-0 class=...
 dyndbg: processed 1 queries, with 0 matches, 0 errs

Also reduce verbose=3 messages in ddebug_add_module

When modprobing a module, dyndbg currently logs/says "add-module", and
then "skipping" if the module has no prdbgs.  Instead just check 1st
and return quietly.

no functional change
