Hi,
Regarding dmesg. I believe it will still show up in it. It can be
controlled by /proc/sys/kernel/printk settings. As per man 5 proc:
/proc/sys/kernel/printk
The four values in this file are console_loglevel, default_mes-
sage_loglevel, minimum_console_level and default_con-
sole_loglevel. These values influence printk() behavior when
printing or logging error messages.
Regards,
Ramesh
