Subject: [PATCH V2] printk: add ignore_loglevel as module parameter.
Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2011 11:07:59 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1314068879.1749.10.camel@ymzhang> (raw)
We are enabling some power features on medfield. To test suspend-2-RAM
conveniently, we need turn on/off ignore_loglevel frequently without rebooting.
Below patch adds a module parameter, so users could change it by:
/sys/module/printk/parameters/ignore_loglevel
Thanks Andrew and Young. I added document info and module param desc.

ignore_loglevel [KNL]
Ignore loglevel setting - this will print /all/
kernel messages to the console. Useful for debugging.
+ We also add it as printk module parameter, so users
+ could change it dynamically, usually by
