Hi Karel,

Just upgraded on one of my machines today, and I was surprised to
discover that only a small portion of my kernel log was printed by
dmesg.  "busybox dmesg" and "dmesg -r" both print the full log (~2000
lines), but plain "dmesg" prints only the first ~150 lines or so.  2.19
dmesg worked fine.

The last few lines printed by plain "dmesg" are:

  [...]
  ACPI: Added _OSI(Module Device)
  ACPI: Added _OSI(Processor Device)
  ACPI: Added _OSI(3.0 _SCP Extensions)
  ACPI: Added _OSI(Processor Aggregator Device)
  ACPI: EC: Look up EC in DSDT
  ACPI: Executed 1 blocks of module-level executable AML code
  ACPI: Actual Package length (234) is larger than NumElements field (3), truncated

Adding the -r option gives much more:

  [...]
  <6>ACPI: Added _OSI(Module Device)
  <6>ACPI: Added _OSI(Processor Device)
  <6>ACPI: Added _OSI(3.0 _SCP Extensions)
  <6>ACPI: Added _OSI(Processor Aggregator Device)
  <7>ACPI: EC: Look up EC in DSDT
  <4>ACPI: Executed 1 blocks of module-level executable AML code
  <4>ACPI: Actual Package length (234) is larger than NumElements field (3), truncated
  <4>
  <6>ACPI: Interpreter enabled
  <6>ACPI: (supports S0 S5)
  <6>ACPI: Using IOAPIC for interrupt routing
  <6>ACPI: Power Resource [ISAV] (on)
  <6>ACPI: No dock devices found.
  [...]

So it looks like it's tripping over the blank line in the log?

Cheers,
