I think it would be OK to split it at the end of the first sentence, like: pr_warn_once("DAMON debugfs interface is deprecated, so users should move to the sysfs interface (DAMON_SYSFS).\n"); pr_warn_once("If you depend on this and cannot move, please report your usecase to damon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and linux-mm@xxxxxxxxx.\n"); or would that [2 pr_warn_once() calls] not work for some reason? Or even: pr_warn_once( "DAMON debugfs interface is deprecated, so users should move to the sysfs interface (DAMON_SYSFS).\n"); pr_warn_once( "If you depend on this and cannot move, please report your usecase to damon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and linux-mm@xxxxxxxxx.\n"); although some people might gag at that one. -- ~Randy
