Subject: [PATCH v1 04/12] sys-rq: Add option to soft dump
Date: Tue, 02 Nov 2010 18:29:49 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101103012948.4641.40943.stgit@crlf.mtv.corp.google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101103012917.4641.57113.stgit@crlf.mtv.corp.google.com>

It is very useful to provide some means to force the kernel logs to make it out
via the kmsg_oops implementations on the console.  Add a new option 'Y' to
sysrq to allow dumping of logs to kmsg_dumper drivers.
