kmsg - export "continuation record" flag to /dev/kmsg
In some cases we are forced to store individual records for a continuation line print. Export a flag to allow the external re-construction of the line. The flag allows us to apply a similar logic externally which is used internally when the console, /proc/kmsg or the syslog() output is printed. $ cat /dev/kmsg 4,165,0,-;Free swap = 0kB 4,166,0,-;Total swap = 0kB 6,167,0,c;[ 4,168,0,+;0 4,169,0,+;1 4,170,0,+;2 4,171,0,+;3 4,172,0,+;] 6,173,0,-;[0 1 2 3 ] 6,174,0,-;Console: colour VGA+ 80x25 6,175,0,-;console [tty0] enabled Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
