+If <type> is dependent on a config option for its size (e.g., sector_t,

Raw pointer value SHOULD be printed with %p. The kernel supports
the following extended format specifiers for pointer types:
For printing struct resources. The 'R' and 'r' specifiers result in a
printed resource with ('R') or without ('r') a decoded flags member.
+ Passed by reference.
Physical addresses types phys_addr_t:
specifier to use reversed byte order suitable for visual interpretation
of Bluetooth addresses which are in the little endian order.
+ Passed by reference.
+
IPv4 addresses:
%pI4 1.2.3.4
host, network, big or little endian order addresses respectively. Where
no specifier is provided the default network/big endian order is used.
+ Passed by reference.
+
IPv6 addresses:
%pI6 0001:0002:0003:0004:0005:0006:0007:0008
print a compressed IPv6 address as described by
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5952
+ Passed by reference.
+
IPv4/IPv6 addresses (generic, with port, flowinfo, scope):
%pIS 1.2.3.4 or 0001:0002:0003:0004:0005:0006:0007:0008
specifiers can be used as well and are ignored in case of an IPv6
address.
+ Passed by reference.
+
Further examples:
%pISfc 1.2.3.4 or [1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8]/123456789
Where no additional specifiers are used the default big endian
order with lower case hex characters will be printed.
+ Passed by reference.
+
dentry names:
%pd{,2,3,4}
%pD{,2,3,4}
equivalent of %s dentry->d_name.name we used to use, %pd<n> prints
n last components. %pD does the same thing for struct file.
+ Passed by reference.

struct va_format:
%pV
Do not use this feature without some mechanism to verify the
correctness of the format string and va_list arguments.
-u64 SHOULD be printed with %llu/%llx:
+ Passed by reference.
+
+struct clk:
- printk("%llu", u64_var);
+ %pC pll1
+ %pCn pll1
+ %pCr 1560000000
-s64 SHOULD be printed with %lld/%llx:
+ For printing struct clk structures. '%pC' and '%pCn' print the name
+ (Common Clock Framework) or address (legacy clock framework) of the
+ structure; '%pCr' prints the current clock rate.
- printk("%lld", s64_var);
+ Passed by reference.
bitmap and its derivatives such as cpumask and nodemask:
%*pb output the bitmap with field width as the number of bits and %*pbl
output the bitmap as range list with field width as the number of bits.
