i note in include/linux/printk.h: static inline void console_silent(void) { console_loglevel = CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_SILENT; } except i see no reference to "console_silent" anywhere else in the entire kernel code base. any idea what its purpose is? rday _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
