I got OOPS message and found the buggy piece of code. I wish I had the output of dmesg just before the crash. In other words, I want to view the last messages collected by the ring buffer used by dmesg. The log messages are certainly being appended to some logfile in the RAM. How can I find the address where the logfile is being created or how can I extract the logfile?
