I've been able to find some info regarding 2.6.38¹, but that doesn't seem to apply to 2.6.32, as there is no /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug directory after mounting the debufgs: # mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/ # ll /sys/kernel/debug/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 40 root root 0 abr 3 19:58 bdi drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 0 abr 3 11:47 hid drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 abr 3 11:47 kprobes drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 abr 3 12:07 kvm drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 abr 3 11:47 mce -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 abr 3 11:47 sched_features drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 0 abr 3 11:47 tracing drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 abr 3 11:47 usb drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 abr 3 11:47 x86 and therefore I can't issue: # echo 'file buffer.c line 1160 +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control ¹http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/dynamic-debug-howto.txt -- Huella de clave primaria: 0FDA C36F F110 54F4 D42B D0EB 617D 396C 448B 31EB
