When a module is built into the kernel the module_init() function becomes an initcall. Sometimes debugging through dynamic debug can help, however, debugging built in kernel modules is typically done by changing the .config, recompiling, and booting the new kernel in an effort to determine exactly which module caused a problem. This patchset can be useful stand-alone or combined with initcall_debug. There are cases where some initcalls can hang the machine before the console can be flushed, which can make initcall_debug output inaccurate. Having the ability to skip initcalls can help further debugging of these scenarios. Usage: initcall_blacklist=<list of comma separated initcalls> ex) added "initcall_blacklist=sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter and the log contains: blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init ... ... initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted ex) added "initcall_blacklist=foo_bar,sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter and the log contains: blacklisting initcall foo_bar blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init ... ... initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak printk text] Signed-off-by: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Cc: Richard Weinberger <richard.weinberger@gmail.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@fedoraproject.org> Cc: Rob Landley <rob@landley.net> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |
