I believe there are 6 bits left in the unsigned int use for the line number and flags in struct _ddebug Assuming the use of a mechanism like pr_debug_level(level, fmt, ...) would you be OK with something like this to enable a level or bitmask test of dynamic debug logging output? where the output is controlled by something like echo 'file level +p' > /dynamic_debug/control to enable dynamic debug output only at level or higher or maybe match a bitmap of (modulo all the rest of the code necessary to use it?) --- include/linux/dynamic_debug.h | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/include/linux/dynamic_debug.h b/include/linux/dynamic_debug.h index abcd5fde30eb..616dbb2b5921 100644 --- a/include/linux/dynamic_debug.h +++ b/include/linux/dynamic_debug.h @@ -38,6 +38,8 @@ struct _ddebug { #define _DPRINTK_FLAGS_DEFAULT 0 #endif unsigned int flags:8; + unsigned int level:5; + unsigned int level_is_bitmask:1; #ifdef CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL union { struct static_key_true dd_key_true;
