H A D | dev-kmsg | 085a3a8f Mon Sep 02 06:18:16 CDT 2019 James Byrne <james.byrne@origamienergy.com> ABI: Update dev-kmsg documentation to match current kernel behaviour
Commit 5aa068ea4082 ("printk: remove games with previous record flags") abolished the practice of setting the log flag to 'c' for the first continuation line and '+' for subsequent lines. Now all continuation lines are flagged with 'c' and '+' is never used.
Update the 'dev-kmsg' documentation to remove the reference to the obsolete '+' flag. In addition, state explicitly that only 8 bits of the <N> syslog prefix are used for the facility number when writing to /dev/kmsg.
