I'm fine with requiring embedded to turn this off where appropriate. It seems that keeping cifs KERN_DEBUG output for normal kernels is pretty cost free. 120KB ain't much these days. I do think that Al Viro & Ted Ts'o should be pinged about their vfs tracing thoughts. (cc'd) MIT seems to bounce my emails, so maybe you could ask Ted directly. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
