Currently the debugging code is under #ifdef DEBUG, which
means when we want to debug, we have to re-compile the source
code with -DDEBUG. This is not convenient, we want to have
a generic --debug option so that we can enable debugging code
without re-compiling.
This patch moves the arch-specific --debug to generic place
and moves code under #ifdef DEBUG to --debug on x86.
BTW, the size of kexec binary increases very little after this patch.
Hi Cong,
In general I am happy with making kexec easier to use. However, it would
be nice not to make kexec-tools even bigger than it already is. Its size
already seems to be an issue for some people on ARM at least. Do you
have some feeling for the change in binary size on architectures other than
i386?
Hi,
I only tested the patches on x86 and ppc.
Sorry I don't have a chance to test it on ARM, on ARM it just adds a
small function dump_memory_ranges(), if this would be a problem,
feel free to drop patch 3/5. :)
Hi,
As per my post to the ppc patch, it did not seem to compile for me.
I did compiling and run tests on ppc64 if you mean ppc32 by "ppc".
I will push the remaining patches. For reference before and after
sizes for the non-ppc architectures are as follows.
Ok, I will re-send the ppc patch soon. Thank you!
