Currently, if ``print_hex_dump_debug()``/``print_hex_dump_bytes()`` calls can be dynamically enabled per-callsite. +If you do not want to enable dynamic debug globally (i.e. in some embedded +system), you may set ``CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE`` as basic support of dynamic +debug and add ``ccflags := -DDYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE`` into the Makefile of any +modules which you'd like to dynamically debug later. + If ``CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG`` is not set, ``print_hex_dump_debug()`` is just shortcut for ``print_hex_dump(KERN_DEBUG)``. |
