实战-Android系统默认关闭内核打印

需求
出于性能考虑，系统默认关闭kernel 打印，需要查看是通过 dmesg 命令查看。

实现

 int console_printk[4] = {
-       CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT,       /* console_loglevel */
-       MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT,       /* default_message_loglevel */
-       CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_MIN,           /* minimum_console_loglevel */

+       CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_SILENT,        /* default_console_loglevel */
 };

原理
内核log等级定义：

common/include/linux/kern_levels.h
#define KERN_SOH	"\001"		/* ASCII Start Of Header */
#define KERN_SOH_ASCII	'\001'

#define KERN_EMERG	KERN_SOH "0"	/* system is unusable */
#define KERN_ALERT	KERN_SOH "1"	/* action must be taken immediately */
#define KERN_CRIT	KERN_SOH "2"	/* critical conditions */
#define KERN_ERR	KERN_SOH "3"	/* error conditions */
#define KERN_WARNING	KERN_SOH "4"	/* warning conditions */
#define KERN_NOTICE	KERN_SOH "5"	/* normal but significant condition */
#define KERN_INFO	KERN_SOH "6"	/* informational */
#define KERN_DEBUG	KERN_SOH "7"	/* debug-level messages */

#define KERN_DEFAULT	KERN_SOH "d"	/* the default kernel loglevel */

/*
 * Annotation for a "continued" line of log printout (only done after a
 * line that had no enclosing \n). Only to be used by core/arch code
 * during early bootup (a continued line is not SMP-safe otherwise).
 */
#define KERN_CONT	KERN_SOH "c"

/* integer equivalents of KERN_<LEVEL> */
#define LOGLEVEL_SCHED		-2	/* Deferred messages from sched code
					 * are set to this special level */
#define LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT	-1	/* default (or last) loglevel */
#define LOGLEVEL_EMERG		0	/* system is unusable */
#define LOGLEVEL_ALERT		1	/* action must be taken immediately */
#define LOGLEVEL_CRIT		2	/* critical conditions */
#define LOGLEVEL_ERR		3	/* error conditions */
#define LOGLEVEL_WARNING	4	/* warning conditions */
#define LOGLEVEL_NOTICE		5	/* normal but significant condition */
#define LOGLEVEL_INFO		6	/* informational */
#define LOGLEVEL_DEBUG		7	/* debug-level messages */

printk使用示例：

printk(KERN_ALERT "hello world");
printk(LOGLEVEL_ERR "hello world");
printk("hello world");//LOGLEVEL_DEBUG

printk打印消息控制

---
#define console_loglevel (console_printk[0])
#define default_message_loglevel (console_printk[1])
#define minimum_console_loglevel (console_printk[2])
#define default_console_loglevel (console_printk[3])
--
//console_loglevel只有当printk打印消息的log优先级高于
//default_message_loglevel printk打印消息时默认的log等级
//minimum_console_loglevel  console_loglevel可以被设置的最小值
//default_console_loglevel console_loglevel的缺省值

查看当前printk打印消息的log等级

cat /proc/sys/kernel/printk
4       4       1       7

4 4 1 7分别对用上面的console_loglevel、default_message_loglevel 、minimum_console_loglevel 、default_console_loglevel
显然，我们通过控制console_loglevel,即可控制打印的级别，
比如我们设置console_loglevel 为 0 （minimum_console_loglevel也必须为0），那么所有的console打印将都不会输出
我们设置console_loglevel 为7，那么所有的打印都可以输出打console控制台

实时控制内核打印级别

echo  0 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
echo  0 0 0 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
echo 7 4 1 7 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk

修改/proc/sys/kernel/printk的值实际上修改的是console_loglevel、default_message_loglevel 、minimum_console_loglevel 、default_console_loglevel 这四个对应的值

修改默认打印级别

common/include/linux/printk.h
#define CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_SILENT  0 /* Mum's the word */
#define CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_MIN	 1 /* Minimum loglevel we let people use */
#define CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_QUIET	 4 /* Shhh ..., when booted with "quiet" */
#define CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT 7 /* anything MORE serious than KERN_DEBUG */
#define CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG	10 /* issue debug messages */

#define console_loglevel (console_printk[0])
#define default_message_loglevel (console_printk[1])
#define minimum_console_loglevel (console_printk[2])
#define default_console_loglevel (console_printk[3])

common/kernel/printk/printk.c
int console_printk[4] = {
	CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT,	/* console_loglevel */
	MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT,	/* default_message_loglevel */
	CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_MIN,		/* minimum_console_loglevel */
	CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT,	/* default_console_loglevel */
};
