I had a closer look. It happens on all archs, if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y. crypto/zlib.c has: #define pr_fmt(fmt) "%s: " fmt, __func__ If CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is set, include/linux/kernel.h has: #define pr_debug(fmt, ...) do { \ dynamic_pr_debug(pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); \ } while (0) include/linux/dynamic_debug.h has: #define dynamic_pr_debug(fmt, ...) do { \ static struct _ddebug descriptor \ __used \ __attribute__((section("__verbose"), aligned(8))) = \ { KBUILD_MODNAME, __func__, __FILE__, fmt, DEBUG_HASH, \ DEBUG_HASH2, __LINE__, _DPRINTK_FLAGS_DEFAULT }; \ if (__dynamic_dbg_enabled(descriptor)) \ printk(KERN_DEBUG KBUILD_MODNAME ":" fmt, \ ##__VA_ARGS__); \ } while (0) So in crypto/zlib.c, | pr_debug("avail_in %u, avail_out %u\n", req->avail_in, req->avail_out); is expanded to | do { | do { | static struct _ddebug descriptor | __attribute__((__used__)) | __attribute__((section("__verbose"), aligned(8))) = { | "zlib", | __func__, | "crypto/zlib.c", | "%s: " "avail_in %u, avail_out %u\n", ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is the actual format string | __func__, ^^^^^^^^^ But this is the first parameter, which should not be here!!! | 55, | 33, | 150, | 0 | }; | if (({ | int __ret = 0; | if (__builtin_expect(!!((dynamic_debug_enabled & (1LL << 55)) && | (dynamic_debug_enabled2 & (1LL << 33))), 0)) | if (__builtin_expect(!!(descriptor.flags), 0)) | __ret = 1; | __ret; | })) | printk("<7>" "zlib" ":" "%s: " "avail_in %u, avail_out %u\n", __func__, | req->avail_in, req->avail_out); | } while (0); | } while (0); Due the the superfluous `__func__', all field members are shifted by one position, and compilation breaks. Apparently inside dynamic_pr_debug(), `fmt' is: "avail_in %u, avail_out %u\n", __func__ instead of only the part before the comma: "avail_in %u, avail_out %u\n" For the non-CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG case, pr_debug() is expanded correctly: DEBUG is defined: #define pr_debug(fmt, ...) \ printk(KERN_DEBUG pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__) and the line is expanded to: | printk("<7>" "%s: " "avail_in %u, avail_out %u\n", __func__, req->avail_in, req->avail_out); DEBUG is not defined: #define pr_debug(fmt, ...) \ ({ if (0) printk(KERN_DEBUG pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); 0; }) and the line is expanded to: | ({ if (0) printk("<7>" "%s: " "avail_in %u, avail_out %u\n", __func__, req->avail_in, req->avail_out); 0; }); Why doesn't it work for dynamic_pr_debug()? BTW, Martin: Is `#define pr_fmt(fmt) "%s: " fmt, __func__' a valid and intended usage of your pr_fmt() infrastructure? Thanks!
