Subject: [PATCH v2 12/14] printk: encode formatting in message flags
Currently, the formatting code has to look at the previously printed
message in order to determine the correct layout of the current message.
This is rather tedious. But now, that we centrally track information
about the previous message in log_store(), we can encode the necessary
information to correctly format a message within the current message
flags.
The flags have the following meaning during formatting:
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...)
