Yes, many other bits of code use custom debugging macros. A good general form is to add a either a generic level or bitmask macro and use a single entry like: my_dbg([optional_ptr,] <level|bitmap>, fmt, ...) so that <level|bitmap> can be tested against some variable set by MODULE_PARM_DESC controls. So, CNETERR(...) might be lustre_dbg(ptr, NETERR, fmt, ...) though I don't know what use the ptr might have. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
