Hi List,

I'm having a little problem with controlling logging levels.

Here I've set console_loglevel to 1 as shown below:

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

But /proc/kmsg still shows messages with lower priority levels such as
KERN_INFO and KERN_DEBUG with <6> and <7> tagged to the beginning of
the messages.

As I understand it, the kernel only logs message that have a priority
level less that console_loglevel.
Why then would it log info and debug messages of a lower priority?

Thanks,
-Joel
