+Subject: kmsg - export "continuation record" flag to /dev/kmsg
 
+In some cases we are forced to store individual records for a continuation
+line print.
+
+Export a flag to allow the external re-construction of the line. The flag
+allows us to apply a similar logic externally which is used internally when
+the console, /proc/kmsg or the syslog() output is printed.
+
