[PATCH v9-resend 03/54] dyndbg: reword "class unknown, " to "class:_UNKNOWN_"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When a dyndbg classname is unknown to a kernel module (as before
previous patch), the callsite is un-addressable via >control queries.

The control-file displays this condition as "class unknown,"
currently.  That spelling is sub-optimal/too-generic, so change it to
"class:_UNKNOWN_" to loudly announce the erroneous situation, and to
make it exceedingly greppable.

NB: pr_debugs are only alterable via >control, and to protect class'd
debug's from unintended alteration, "class name" must be given to
change them.  Classmaps map known classes to reserved .class_ids (the
1..64 val range per module).
