The reviewers should not have to discover that for themselves. Certainly adding the function name to the printouts might be useful; however, your commit message says "instead of embedding functions name". That is obviously not true. None of the changes ever included the function name in the message.

Why would the function name be needed here? If the user has DBG_TRACE turned on, then the function where a COMP_SEND message is emitted will be known.
