Linux kernel source tree
The usage of in_interrupt() in drivers in is phased out. rtl_dbg() a printk based debug aid is using in_interrupt() in the underlying C function _rtl_dbg_out() which is almost identical to _rtl_dbg_print(). The only difference is the printout of in_interrupt(). The decoding of in_interrupt() as hexvalue is non-trivial and aside of being phased out for driver usage the return value is just by chance the masked preempt count value and not a boolean. These home brewn printk debug aids are tedious to work with and provide only minimal context. They should be replaced by trace_printk() or a debug tracepoint which automatically records all context information. To make progress on the in_interrupt() cleanup, make rtl_dbg() use _rtl_dbg_print() and remove _rtl_dbg_out().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
