kmsg_write returns with printk, so some programs may be confused by a successful write() with a return value different than the buffer length. # /bin/echo something > /dev/kmsg /bin/echo: write error: Inappropriate ioctl for device The drawbacks is that the printk return value can no more be quickly checked from userspace.
