Subject: block_dump - full path ?

Message-ID: <899288751@web.de> (raw)

Hi, 

i came across the nice debugging feature sysctl vm.block_dump=1 which leaves information on read/write in dmesg for every process.

Sep  5 20:11:15 neoware kernel: kjournald(423): WRITE block 155542512 on sda2
Sep  5 20:11:15 neoware kernel: kjournald(423): WRITE block 155542520 on sda2
Sep  5 20:11:15 neoware kernel: kjournald(423): WRITE block 155542528 on sda2
Sep  5 20:11:19 neoware kernel: pdflush(14): WRITE block 144498288 on sda2
Sep  5 20:11:19 neoware kernel: pdflush(14): WRITE block 144916496 on sda2
Sep  5 20:11:19 neoware kernel: pdflush(14): WRITE block 144917376 on sda2
Sep  5 20:11:19 neoware kernel: pdflush(14): WRITE block 144704600 on sda2

is it possible to log the full path of the process ?

i assume it is a missing feature, correct ?

what about adding full path support, to be enabled with "sysctl vm.block_dump=2" ?

regards
roland
