Tested on Linux/DCO (my "float victim"), and it now is much less confusing - there's clear "this is for a given peer" messages that include a prefix, and there's low-level DCO informational messages which often come in asynchronously, not related to the current mi peer. With M_NOIPREFIX these never get a prefix - and where relevant, they print the peer-id anyway
+ msg(D_DCO_DEBUG | M_NOIPREFIX, "%s: parsing message for peer %u...", __func__, peer_id); (and D_DCO_DEBUG is "verb 7", so there's enough messages that link peer-id to a given client instance) I'm not sure if we shouldn't do a bit larger rehaul of this, like always include M_NOIPREFIX in the very definition of D_DCO_DEBUG (and all other D_* levels that are similar in nature) - the whole "prefix" thing has been there from day one, and we haven't really spent much thought on it (yet) - but that might be a 2.8 topic, do what Selva has wanted to do for a long time, and go with a fine comb over all the msg() and --verb levels... The sig.c change is one of those places - ideally, everybody who raises a signal has the proper prefix beforehand (or resets it) - but for "DCO has an error to raise" this is not really straightforward. I have changed the commit message from "on float" to "on debug messages", as this affected peer stats just as well - basically, any asynchronous DCO event that wants to print infos. Yet again, mail-archive.org is trying to annoy me - claiming there is no such mail. So, linking to sourceforge.net archive, again.
