Add a prefixing macro to dev_<level> uses similar to the pr_fmt prefixing macro used in pr_<level> calls. This can help avoid some string duplication in dev_<level> uses. The default, like pr_fmt, is an empty #define dev_fmt(fmt) fmt Rename the existing dev_<level> functions to _dev_<level> and introduce #define dev_<level> _dev_<level> macros that use the new #define dev_fmt Miscellanea: o Consistently use #defines with fmt, ... and ##__VA_ARGS__ o Remove unnecessary externs Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
