CONFIG_LOG_MINIMAL

Enable minimal-footprint logging

Type: bool

Help

Enable minimal logging implementation. This has very little footprint overhead on top of the printk() implementation for standard logging macros. Hexdump macros are also supported, with a small amount of code pulled in if used. Build time filtering is supported, but not runtime filtering. There are no timestamps, prefixes, colors, or asynchronous logging, and all messages are simply sent to printk().

Direct dependencies

LOG

(Includes any dependencies from ifs and menus.)

Defaults

No defaults. Implicitly defaults to n.
