Subject: [PATCH 05/14] pstore: Add console log messages support
Date: Fri, 18 May 2012 15:25:00 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120518222500.GE23089@lizard> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120518222314.GA9425@lizard>
Pstore doesn't support logging kernel messages in run-time, it only
dumps dmesg when kernel oopses/panics. This makes pstore useless for
debugging hangs caused by HW issues or improper use of HW (e.g.
weird device inserted -> driver tried to write a reserved bits ->
SoC hanged. In that case we don't get any messages in the pstore.
Therefore, let's add a runtime logging support: PSTORE_TYPE_CONSOLE.
