[PATCH v3 1/3] ACPI / debugger: Add kernel flushing support

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

 



This patch adds debugger log flushing support in kernel via .ioctl()
callback. The in-kernel flushing is more efficient, because it reduces
useless log IOs by bypassing log user_read/kern_write during the flush
period.
