2008-05-14lib: create common ascii hex arrayHarvey Harrison
Add a common hex array in hexdump.c so everyone can use it. Add a common hi/lo helper to avoid the shifting masking that is done to get the upper and lower nibbles of a byte value. Pull the pack_hex_byte helper from kgdb as it is opencoded many places in the tree that will be consolidated.

2007-11-29hexdump: don't print bytes with bit 7 setRandy Dunlap
As Herbert Xu pointed out, bytes (chars) with bit 7 (0x80) set are true with isprint() but they may not be isascii() but be Unicode instead, so don't try to print them in hex dumps.

2007-08-11hex_dump: add missing "const" qualifiersAlan Stern
Add missing "const" qualifiers to the print_hex_dump_bytes() library routines.

2007-08-09hexdump: use const notationArtem Bityutskiy
Trivial fix: mark the buffer to hexdump as const so callers could avoid casting their const buffers when calling print_hex_dump(). The patch is really trivial and I suggest to consider it as a fix (it fixes GCC warnings) and push it to current tree.

2007-06-08hexdump: more output formattingRandy Dunlap
Add a prefix string parameter. Callers are responsible for any string length/alignment that they want to see in the output. I.e., callers should pad strings to achieve alignment if they want that. Add rowsize parameter. This is the number of raw data bytes to be printed per line. Must be 16 or 32. Add a groupsize parameter. This allows callers to dump values as 1-byte, 2-byte, 4-byte, or 8-byte numbers. Default is 1-byte numbers. If the total length is not an even multiple of groupsize, 1-byte numbers are printed. Add an "ascii" output parameter. This causes ASCII data output following the hex data output. Clean up some doc examples. Align the ASCII output on all lines that are produced by one call. Add a new interface, print_hex_dump_bytes(), that is a shortcut to print_hex_dump(), using default parameter values to print 16 bytes in byte-size chunks of hex + ASCII output, using printk level KERN_DEBUG.

2007-05-11lib/hexdumpRandy Dunlap
Based on ace_dump_mem() from Grant Likely for the Xilinx SystemACE CompactFlash interface. Add print_hex_dump() & hex_dumper() to lib/hexdump.c and linux/kernel.h. This patch adds the functions print_hex_dump() & hex_dumper(). print_hex_dump() can be used to perform a hex + ASCII dump of data to syslog, in an easily viewable format, thus providing a common text hex dump format. hex_dumper() provides a dump-to-memory function. It converts one "line" of output (16 bytes of input) at a time. Example usages: print_hex_dump(KERN_DEBUG, DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS, frame->data, frame->len); hex_dumper(frame->data, frame->len, linebuf, sizeof(linebuf)); Example output using %DUMP_PREFIX_OFFSET: 0009ab42: 40414243 44454647 48494a4b 4c4d4e4f-@ABCDEFG HIJKLMNO Example output using %DUMP_PREFIX_ADDRESS: ffffffff88089af0: 70717273 74757677 78797a7b 7c7d7e7f-pqrstuvw xyz{|}~.
