Reducing the kernel size by making it less verbous looks fine, but I think the option is misnamed and that could lead to confusion. A newbie like me would understand that option as "reduce the kernel features to gain space", not the amount of traces. So I would rename it something like "VERBOSE_LESS" ?
The plan is to have the option reduce size in other code as needed, not just to reduce the number of messages in the kernel.
Also, could it be possible to make such changes like this latest one in another development branch, so that we could have a stable master branch, as the official Linux, so that we could review, test, validate and mature the changes on our different platforms before merging them ?
ELKS isn't stable enough to justify adding branches for the sake of having a "stable master" branch. It was only with the release of 0.2.0 that it could be considered remotely close to "stable." Even since then, I've fixed numerous problems with the code. I'd prefer not to call anything "stable" until ELKS is at a point that version 1.0 is justifiable. There are only two people actively working on the ELKS code base right now, so that's going to take some time. -Jody -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-8086" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
