Not CC'ing critical voices it not very nice. 8-) As I replied to v1 of this series, IHMO we should not encourage userspace tools to use kmsg as their poor-man's syslog. Everything what this series does in kernel space can also be done in userspace. Just my two cents. -- Thanks, //richard -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
