I understand the scope of the usage of this new interface. I don't think
I am able to explain the problem I see with this interface as it gets
used more and more from acpi drivers. Let me try another way.
If understand the this patch set, if and when acpi drivers that
currently use pr_* interfaces switch to using acpi_pr_*, the execution
path goes from a what printk() does to the following:
acpi_pr_*
- setup static buffer
- calls acpi_get_name()
- acpi_get_name() calls acpi_ut_validate_buffer() and then calls
acpi_ns_handle_to_pathname()
- acpi_ns_handle_to_pathname() calls acpi_ns_validate_handle() followed
by acpi_ns_get_pathname_length() and so on.
I think this should give you a good idea of my concern. I think
acpi_pr_* full functionality should be enabled under special cases such
as some acpi_debug level setting or some other way, and not for default
case. I propose the following:
Make acpi_pr_* versions execute the full path to do acpi_get_name()
conditionally and not as a default case.
To illustrate my point further, I currently see the following ACPI
messages in my dmesg buffer on my laptop. I haven't taken the time to
evaluate how many of them originate from acpi drivers, however I would
not want to see all of these becoming acpi_pr_* versions that do more
than what pr_* does today. I hope this explains my concern clearly.
