It's what is done in the generic kernel code for page table entries. printk(KERN_ALERT "BUG: Bad page map in process %s pte:%08llx pmd:%08llx\n", current->comm, (long long)pte_val(pte), (long long)pmd_val(*pmd)); The places where this matters, there isn't any alignment between lines to worry about: printk(", *pmd=%08lx", pmd_val(*pmd)); printk(", *pte=%08lx", pte_val(*pte)); printk(", *ppte=%08lx", pte_val(pte[-PTRS_PER_PTE])); in show_pte() are examples of what need changing. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
