The reason I ask is that Ive proposed that the DRM_UT_<Categories> be replaced by a set of prefix strings; "drm:core:" "drm:kms:" etc. If the DRM_DEBUG_* etc api were converted to use pr_debug, then dyndbg could optimize away the drm_debug_enabled() overheads. dyndbg would enable those classes of drm-debug callsites using #> echo module drm format drm:kms: > /proc/dyndbg/control the patchset includes a macro to declare a bit-field to implement drm.debug https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/96328/ how would one (hope to) coordinate changes like this ?
