From 456b565cc52fbcdaa2e19ffdf40d9dd3b726d603 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Kagstrom Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2009 14:09:18 +0200 Subject: core: Add kernel message dumper to call on oopses and panics The core functionality is implemented as per Linus suggestion from http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2009-October/027620.html (with the kmsg_dump implementation by Linus). A struct kmsg_dumper has been added which contains a callback to dump the kernel log buffers on crashes. The kmsg_dump function gets called from oops_exit() and panic() and invokes this callbacks with the crash reason.
