How about using KERN_DEBUG and augmenting the dmesg store so that the level that is saved is configurable? Even compile time configurable seems reasonable to start. But axeing out even the possibility of boot time info seems bad to me.


Like this?
(14) Kernel log buffer size (16 => 64KB, 17 => 128KB) Available at least in 2.6.0-test3 under "General setup"


Yes, except I was thinking for loglevel rather than size. Is a loglevel option - as in only save printk's above level X in dmesg - already available? I've seen other emails fly by on the printk system before so this could well already be available. I haven't checked but was assuming from the emails I'd seen so far that this didn't exist and was merely suggesting this thinking it'd be an easy addition to the dmesg store.
