 Controlling dynamic debug Behaviour
-===============================

+Debug messages during boot process
+==================================
+
+To be able to activate debug messages during the boot process,
+even before userspace and debugfs exists, use the boot parameter:
+ddebug_query="QUERY"
+
+QUERY follows the syntax described above, but must not exceed 1023
+characters. The enablement of debug messages is done as an arch_initcall.
+Thus you can enable debug messages in all code processed after this
+arch_initcall via this boot parameter.
+On an x86 system for example ACPI enablement is a subsys_initcall and
+ddebug_query="file ec.c +p"
+will show early Embedded Controller transactions during ACPI setup if
+your machine (typically a laptop) has an Embedded Controller.
+PCI (or other devices) initialization also is a hot candidate for using
+this boot parameter for debugging purposes.
