Subject: [PATCH] Cleanup oops/bug reports on i386
Date: Wed, 08 Aug 2007 18:16:54 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <46B9D056.9040406@openvz.org> (raw)

Typically the oops first lines look like this:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
 printing eip:
c049dfbd
*pde = 00000000
Oops: 0002 [#1]
PREEMPT SMP 
...

Such output is gained with some ugly if (!nl) printk("\n"); code and
besides being a waste of lines, this is also annoying to read. The
following output looks better (and it is how it looks on x86_64):

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
printing eip: c049dfbd *pde = 00000000
Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP 
...
