    UBUNTU: SAUCE: s390: kernel message catalog · a2dc5b76
    Martin Schwidefsky authored
    BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1628889
    
    
    
    Add support for automatic message tags to the printk macro
    families dev_xyz and pr_xyz. The message tag consists of a
    component name and a 24 bit hash of the message text. For
    each message that is documented in the included kernel message
    catalog a man page can be created with a script (which is
    included in the patch). The generated man pages contain
    explanatory text that is intended to help understand the
    messages.
    
    Note that only s390 specific messages are prepared
    appropriately and included in the generated message catalog.
    
    This patch is optional as it is very unlikely to be accepted
    in upstream kernel, but is recommended for all distributions
    which are built based on the 'Development stream'
