Did you know you could enable debugs as whole module too? Also per function or source file, not only per line you seems to use.

I'm not against using pr_debug(), but the patch that converted from printk to pr_debug() made a crappy job, because it didn't replace all occurrences of IR_dprintk() with pr_debug(). Instead, it did: #define IR_dprintk(level, foo) if (level >= debug) pr_debug(foo) So, if you do: module rc-core +p > .../dynamic_debug/control it won't work, because debug is zero. And, if you load rc-core with debug=1, it also doesn't work. It is the worse of both worlds. So, the hole point is that we should either remove IR_dprintk macro everywhere or to remove pr_debug(). I took the shortest way, as the hole point were to make the debug useful again, for me to be able to test some of the IR patches I merged. Btw, in the specific case of rc-core debug, the debug flag is used on all RC raw decoders, and not only by the core. I think that IR_dprintk is more intuitive than pr_debug in this particular usecase, especially since it takes a longer time to be able to enable the "level 1" type of messages on all 9 IR decoders, and such "level 1" type of debug activation can't easily be scriptable, as there's no way to do something like: module rc-core ir* +p level=1 > .../dynamic_debug/control Regards, Mauro > > > > That doesn't make sense! > > > > So, revert to the old way, as a single line is changed, > > and the debug parameter will now work as expected. > > > > Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <m.chehab@samsung.com> > > --- > > include/media/rc-core.h | 2 +- > > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > > > diff --git a/include/media/rc-core.h b/include/media/rc-core.h > > index 3047837db1cc..2c7fbca40b69 100644 > > --- a/include/media/rc-core.h > > +++ b/include/media/rc-core.h > > @@ -26,7 +26,7 @@ extern int rc_core_debug; > > #define IR_dprintk(level, fmt, ...) \ > > do { \ > > if (rc_core_debug >= level) \ > > - pr_debug("%s: " fmt, __func__, ##__VA_ARGS__); \ > > + printk(KERN_DEBUG pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); \ > > } while (0) > > > > enum rc_driver_type { > > > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

The hole point of IR_dprintk() is that, once a level is given at debug parameter, all enabled IR parsers will show their debug messages. While converting it to dynamic_printk might be a good idea, right now it just makes very hard to debug the drivers, as one needs to both pass debug=1 or debug=2 to rc-core and to use the dynamic printk to enable all the desired lines. That doesn't make sense! So, revert to the old way, as a single line is changed, and the debug parameter will now work as expected.
