Usage:
- Dynamic debugging is controlled via the 'dynamic_debug/ddebug' file,
+ Dynamic debugging is controlled via the 'dynamic_debug/control' file,
which is contained in the 'debugfs' filesystem. Thus, the debugfs
filesystem must first be mounted before making use of this feature.
- We refer the control file as: <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/ddebug. This
+ We refer the control file as: <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control. This
file contains a list of the debug statements that can be enabled. The
format for each line of the file is:
From a live system:
- nullarbor:~ # cat <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/ddebug
+ nullarbor:~ # cat <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
# filename:lineno [module]function flags format
fs/aio.c:222 [aio]__put_ioctx - "__put_ioctx:\040freeing\040%p\012"
fs/aio.c:248 [aio]ioctx_alloc - "ENOMEM:\040nr_events\040too\040high\012"
