This proper definition is obtained by setting 'DEBUG', and thus i need to define this before the kernel.h include. We can solve #2 by defining an explicit definition for dynamic_dbg_enabled() when only CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG within cpufreq.h. roughly: #ifdef CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG #define cpufreq_debug_printk(flag) if (cpufreq_debug & flag) __cpufreq_debug_printk() However, the way i have it now I don't need two definitions for cpufreq_debug_printk.... If we could pull the subsystem specific header in dynamic_printk.h for each subsytem that would do the trick and be really clean, but i'm not sure of an easy way to do that... -Jason -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
