Subject: [PATCH v3 18/22] sys-rq: Add option to soft dump
Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2010 13:30:32 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101214213032.17022.76191.stgit@mike.mtv.corp.google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101214212846.17022.64836.stgit@mike.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.
Signed-off-by: Mike Waychison <mikew@google.com>

Changelog:
- v3
- Added a note to Documentation/sysrq.txt about the command.
TODO: Figure out a better letter? Can we reuse 'v'?
