Here's a simple proposal. Define an option PRINTK_TSC
What it does: each time printk would print a newline, it will instead print this: (16 hex digits of TSC)\n Here's another simpler option: Define a new format letter, T, such that %T as a format means "time". first option allows comprehensive timing, but it will slow things down a bit. Second option allows us to completely tailor the printing of time, but you have to explicitly add %T when you want time printed.
