[PATCH v3 0/2] powerpc/xmon: Paged output for paca display

From: Sam Bobroff <hidden>
Date: 2015-10-08 00:51:26



Changes v2 -> v3:

Moved the pagination implementation from xmon.c to nonstdio.c where it's much
easier to do and the code is significantly simplified.

As it's now trivial to do, add the capability to truncate the output or to stop
pagination and dump the rest of the output.

Changed function naming scheme to read more easily (e.g.
xmon_start_pagination()).


Changes v1 -> v2:

* Removed pagination parameters from commands, replaced with new command to set
  page size. This works better for multiple commands and produces simpler code.
* Switched from encoding the page position in the command buffer to using some
  globals. Saves some memory and is less invasive to the command code.
* Added a patch to paginate the kernel log buffer display.

[PATCH v3 1/2] powerpc/xmon: Paged output for paca display

From: Sam Bobroff <hidden>
Date: 2015-10-08 00:51:26

The paca display is already more than 24 lines, which can be problematic
if you have an old school 80x24 terminal, or more likely you are on a
virtual terminal which does not scroll for whatever reason.

This patch adds a new command ".", which takes a single (hex) numeric
argument: lines per page. It will cause the output of "dp" and "dpa"
to be broken into pages, if necessary.

Sample output:

(Based on a similar patch by Michael Ellerman [off-list ref]
"[v2] powerpc/xmon: Allow limiting the size of the paca display".
This patch is an alternative and cannot coexist with the original.)

[PATCH v3 2/2] powerpc/xmon: Paginate kernel log buffer display

From: Sam Bobroff <hidden>
Date: 2015-10-08 00:51:26

The kernel log buffer is often much longer than the size of a terminal
so paginate it's output.

So what about making it "#" rather than "." ?

Sure, although we'll have to do a better job than the other commands in the help text ;-)
(They use "#" to indicate a hex number and "##" is just going to be confusing.)

Do you want me to respin? (I'm happy for you to just adjust the patch.)

Cheers,
Sam.

Not that's fine I'll fix it up here.

I also converted some things to bool that could be, final patch is below.
