[PATCH] wl12xx: allow runtime changing of debug_level

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently, the debug level is set in compilation time (by the DEBUG_LEVEL
const). This method has the advantage of compiling only the relevant
messages, while optimizing out the unused ones.

In order to allow runtime control over the debug_level, while optimizing
out messages when debug messages are not needed, we combine some methods:
1. use dynamic_debug (pr_debug) rather then printk.
2. add debug_level module param in order to set debug level during insmod.
3. add debug_level sysfs file in order to allow dynamic control over the
   debug level.

Since patches for pr_debug_hex_dump() implementation haven't been applied yet,
we are still temporarly using print_hex_dump().
