printk: create pr_<level> functions
Using functions instead of macros can reduce overall code size by eliminating unnecessary "KERN_SOH<digit>" prefixes from format strings. defconfig x86-64: $ size vmlinux* text data bss dec hex filename 10193570 4331464 1105920 15630954 ee826a vmlinux.new 10192623 4335560 1105920 15634103 ee8eb7 vmlinux.old As the return value are unimportant and unused in the kernel tree, these new functions return void. Miscellanea: - change pr_<level> macros to call new __pr_<level> functions - change vprintk_nmi and vprintk_default to add LOGLEVEL_<level> argument [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix LOGLEVEL_INFO, per Joe] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/e16cc34479dfefcae37c98b481e6646f0f69efc3.1466718827.git.joe@perches.com Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
