"<7>" is KERN_DEBUG in <include/linux/kernel.h>, used with printk. Are you
using printk in the following forms?
printk(KERN_DEBUG "A debug message.\n");
Yes, exclusively.
Perhaps you have something looping that's outputting KERN_DEBUG with a
null message? Or one of your diagnostic printk statements includes
KERN_DEBUG with no actual message?
No, they are all KERN_DEBUG<space>"some string here", almost all with
some formatted output as well. Could I be overloading the printk
output buffer, as in possibly too tightly repeated/looped code to be
able to output it all?
Remember, if you have a string in a variable without a KERN_*
prependation, you can do this.
printk(KERN_DEBUG "%s\n", debug_message);
Haven't tried that one - they're all of the form above.
Thanks again.
