Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 2/5] netconsole: extract message fragmentation into send_msg_udp()
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 04:17:25 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260123-nbcon-v4-2-46a5cf567926@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260123-nbcon-v4-0-46a5cf567926@debian.org>
Extract the message fragmentation logic from write_msg() into a
dedicated send_msg_udp() function. This improves code readability
and prepares for future enhancements.
The new send_msg_udp() function handles splitting messages that
exceed MAX_PRINT_CHUNK into smaller fragments and sending them
sequentially. This function is placed before send_ext_msg_udp()
to maintain a logical ordering of related functions.
No functional changes - this is purely a refactoring commit.
