The patch titled Subject: dynamic_debug: move pr_err from module.c to ddebug_add_module has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is dynamic_debug-move-pr_err-from-modulec-to-ddebug_add_module.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/dynamic_debug-move-pr_err-from-modulec-to-ddebug_add_module.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/dynamic_debug-move-pr_err-from-modulec-to-ddebug_add_module.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: dynamic_debug: move pr_err from module.c to ddebug_add_module This serves two purposes: First, we get a diagnostic if (though extremely unlikely), any of the calls of ddebug_add_module for built-in code fails, effectively disabling dynamic_debug. Second, I want to make struct _ddebug opaque, and avoid accessing any of its members outside dynamic_debug.[ch].
