But even in real life those headers provide quite important information on what is user's HW and SW configuration. That said for more generic use-cases especially when we have just a few cores I'd say those messages really make sense. What we may also do for example add "ccflags += -DDEBUG" in arch/arc/Makefile so all pr_debug() instances again start to print messages in console. But do it say only if !EzChip's platform is selected. So it keeps everything as it is for non-EzChip cases and makes you guys happy as you no longer see those 4096 headers. Let's see what Vineet says. -Alexey
