I agree. I take KERN_UNSUPRESSED like a nice trick how to pass the information about the unsupressed printk context via printk_safe and printk_nmi per-CPU buffers. The single line in sysrq __handle_sysrq() seems to be the only location where KERN_UNSUPRESSED can be used directly. Best Regards, Petr
