Readers of the printk ringbuffer can use the continuous line interface
to read full lines. The interface buffers continuous line parts until
the full line is available or that line was interrupted by a writer
from another context.
The continuous line interface automatically throws out partial lines if
a reader jumps to older sequence numbers. If a reader jumps to higher
sequence numbers, any cached partial lines are flushed.
The continuous line interface is used by:
- console printing
- syslog
- devkmsg
devkmsg has the additional requirement that it must show a line for
every sequence number if the corresponding continuous line record was
not dropped. The continuous line interface supports this by allowing
the reader to provide a printk_record struct that will be filled in
with placeholder information (but no text) in case a full line is not
yet available.
Note that kmsg_dump does not use the continuous line interface.
The continuous line interface discards dictionaries of continuous lines.
