Subject: [PATCH 11/12] printk: track previously logged message in log_store()
Centrally track information about the previous message in log_store()
instead of doing it from formatting code spread over various places.
To be able to format the current message correctly, encode the necessary
information within the current message's flags:
LOG_NOCONT: Print a newline before the prefix.
LOG_PREFIX: Print a prefix before the message.
LOG_NEWLINE: Print a newline after the message.
We do not always know in time, whether we should store a message with a
newline at the end or not. However, a missing newline is addressed by a
LOG_NOCONT stored with the next message.
Thus, when logged messages are processed in order without any skips,
we generate an nicely formatted output.
(When there are skips, e. g., the log buffer overflowed before the next
message in sequence was retrieved, the output might end up with a
missing newline and/or header or an additional newline. OTOH, the
current code just silently ignores skipped messages...)
