[PATCH] cxl: Add CONFIG_CXL_DEBUG to drivers/cxl
Posted by Yuquan Wang 3 months, 2 weeks ago
CONFIG_CXL_DEBUG=y adds -DDEBUG to CFLAGS, which enables pr_debug()
and dev_dbg(). Users can use this config to open all cxl debug
messages.

There is no need for this.

Dynamic debugging can be turned on at run time.[1]

For example here is what run_qemu[2] adds to the cmdline to debug cxl with
cxl-test.

cxl_acpi.dyndbg=+fplm cxl_pci.dyndbg=+fplm cxl_core.dyndbg=+fplm
cxl_mem.dyndbg=+fplm cxl_pmem.dyndbg=+fplm cxl_port.dyndbg=+fplm
cxl_region.dyndbg=+fplm cxl_test.dyndbg=+fplm cxl_mock.dyndbg=+fplm
cxl_mock_mem.dyndbg=+fplm
