That is, one or the other is always set, but they are never both set at the same time in a log record flags field. What follows is a great deal of explanation that aims to prove this assertion. Having that knowledge allows us to simplify a bit of logic, and with a little more work (in follow-on patches) it allows us to do without a flag value, simplifying things. Log record flags are held in the "cont" continuation buffer, as well as in "syslog_prev" and "console_prev". Those are discussed later. Other than that, log record flags are only set in log_store(): msg->flags = flags & 0x1f; There are 5 places log_store() is called: twice from cont_flush(); and three times from vprintk_emit(). Only two single-flag values are ever passed to cont_flush(): LOG_CONT; and LOG_NEWLINE. That passed-in value is provided to log_store() either as-is, or modified to include LOG_NOCONS. There are thus four possible flag combinations supplied to log_store() by cont_flush(): LOG_CONT; LOG_NEWLINE; LOG_CONT|LOG_NOCONS; or LOG_NEWLINE|LOG_NOCONS. The first call vprintk_emit() makes to log_store() passes a flags value of LOG_PREFIX|LOG_NEWLINE. The second and third calls pass a locally-computed "lflags" value, possibly with LOG_CONT added. The only possible flag combinations held in "lflags" are: 0; LOG_NEWLINE; LOG_PREFIX; or LOG_NEWLINE|LOG_PREFIX. If LOG_NEWLINE is not set, LOG_CONT flag is added in the call to log_store(). So there are four possible flag combinations supplied by vprintk_emit(): LOG_CONT; LOG_NEWLINE; LOG_PREFIX|LOG_CONT; or LOG_PREFIX|LOG_NEWLINE. Therefore log_store() is never provided (so never records) a flag value that contains both LOG_CONT and LOG_NEWLINE, and one of those flags is always present. Meanwhile, the "cont" flags field is only ever assigned value 0, or a value passed to cont_flush(). The value of cont.flags is only ever *used* if cont.flushed is true, and that only gets set after the cont.flags field is assigned to the value passed to cont_flush(). As mentioned above, cont_flush() is never provided more than one flag value, and it's always either LOG_NEWLINE or LOG_CONT. Therefore, for all intents and purposes, cont.flags only ever holds LOG_NEWLINE or LOG_CONT. The only values assigned to "syslog_prev" and "console_prev" are the initial value LOG_NEWLINE or the flags value from a log record. So none of these ever hold LOG_CONT and LOG_NEWLINE at the same time. This proves that at LOG_CONT and LOG_NEWLINE are in fact mutually exclusive flags. This patch makes the following changes: - Changes two spots in msg_print_txt() so they no longer bother checking for LOG_NEWLINE once its known that LOG_CONT is set. - Changes two |= assignments in vprintk_emit() to be simple assignments instead, because the result is known to be the same and it makes it obvious no other flags are involved. - Assigns LOG_CONT to "lflags" in vprintk_emit() if it does not contain LOG_NEWLINE (rather than just adding it at the time of the call to log_store()). - Adds a short explanatory comment.
