It's a leading ascii SOH and a standard ascii char '0' ... '7' or 'd'. #define KERN_EMERG KERN_SOH "0" /* system is unusable */ #define KERN_ALERT KERN_SOH "1" /* action must be taken immediately */ etc... > And if that changes the log-level to "2" instead of the default "4"? No it doesn't. It's not triggering that because devkmsg_writev does prefix parsing only on the old "<n>" form. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
