2 * linux/kernel/printk.c
4 * Copyright (C) 1991, 1992 Linus Torvalds
6 * Modified to make sys_syslog() more flexible: added commands to
7 * return the last 4k of kernel messages, regardless of whether
8 * they've been read or not. Added option to suppress kernel printk's
9 * to the console. Added hook for sending the console messages
10 * elsewhere, in preparation for a serial line console (someday).
12 * Modified for sysctl support, 1/8/97, Chris Horn.
13 * Fixed SMP synchronization, 08/08/99, Manfred Spraul
15 * Rewrote bits to get rid of console_lock
