| |
There is the requirement from new Android that kernel image (GKI) and kernel modules are supposed to be built at differnet places. Some people want to enable dynamic debug for kernel modules only but not for kernel image itself with the consideration of binary size increased or more memory being used.
By this patch, dynamic debug is divided into core part (the defination of functions) and macro replacement part. We can only have the core part to be built-in and do not have to activate the debug output from kenrel image.
