Ugh. KERN_* is a string with a special character as a header, not
just an stringified number. Ok, I see how this fixes the bug, but
let's have a look at where kern_level comes from. i.e.
xfs_message.h:
extern __printf(3, 4)
void xfs_printk_level(const char *kern_level, const struct xfs_mount *mp,
const char *fmt, ...);
define xfs_printk_index_wrap(kern_level, mp, fmt, ...) \
({ \
printk_index_subsys_emit("%sXFS%s: ", kern_level, fmt); \
xfs_printk_level(kern_level, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__); \
})
#define xfs_emerg(mp, fmt, ...) \
xfs_printk_index_wrap(KERN_EMERG, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define xfs_alert(mp, fmt, ...) \
xfs_printk_index_wrap(KERN_ALERT, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define xfs_crit(mp, fmt, ...) \
xfs_printk_index_wrap(KERN_CRIT, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define xfs_err(mp, fmt, ...) \
xfs_printk_index_wrap(KERN_ERR, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
.....
IOWs, we define the level value directly in these macros, they
aren't spread throughout the code. Hence we should be able to use
some preprocessor string concatenation magic here to get rid of the
kstrtoint() call altogether.
extern __printf(3, 4)
-void xfs_printk_level(const char *kern_level, const struct xfs_mount *mp,
- const char *fmt, ...);
+void xfs_printk_level(const char *kern_level, const int log_level,
+ const struct xfs_mount *mp, const char *fmt, ...);
define xfs_printk_index_wrap(level, mp, fmt, ...) \
({ \
- printk_index_subsys_emit("%sXFS%s: ", kern_level, fmt); \
- xfs_printk_level(kern_level, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__); \
+ printk_index_subsys_emit("%sXFS%s: ", KERN_##level, fmt); \
+ xfs_printk_level(KERN_##level, LOGLEVEL_##level mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__); \
})
#define xfs_emerg(mp, fmt, ...) \
- xfs_printk_index_wrap(KERN_EMERG, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
+ xfs_printk_index_wrap(EMERG, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define xfs_alert(mp, fmt, ...) \
- xfs_printk_index_wrap(KERN_ALERT, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
- xfs_printk_index_wrap(ALERT, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define xfs_crit(mp, fmt, ...) \
- xfs_printk_index_wrap(KERN_CRIT, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
- xfs_printk_index_wrap(CRIT, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#define xfs_err(mp, fmt, ...) \
- xfs_printk_index_wrap(KERN_ERR, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
- xfs_printk_index_wrap(ERR, mp, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
....
Then xfs_printk_level() is passed the log level as an integer value
at runtime - the compiler does is all for us - and the code
is then simply:
if (log_level < LOGLEVEL_ERR &&
xfs_error_level >= XFS_ERRLEVEL_HIGH)
xfs_stack_trace();
Cheers,
Dave.
