That's fine. I left out the trailing semicolon/space. The pr_fmt could be something like: #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ":%d:%s: " fmt, current->pid, __func__ or add a "pid:" descriptor prefix if you like too: #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ":pid:%d:%s: " fmt, current->pid, __func__ > > it's better to use a consistent style for > > these logging functions ideally with terminating > > newlines so there isn't a mix of code with > > and without those newlines.

Over time, people come along and add messages while not reading the code very closely so using the kernel style with newlines can help avoid these trivial defects. cheers, Joe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
