Re: LKCD in mainstream release?

[rbharata@xxxxxxxxxx]

Forgot to do "reply all" for the first time and hence the discussion
continued outside the lkcd mailing list.

Yes please, I had previously mentioned the SysRq idea to Matt but did
not get a response, guess he was already working on it.

Thanks

Simon,
Yes it is not present in the patch you are looking into. Infact I was

using

a patch which was sent out by Matt last month on the mailing list.  Here

he

had fixed some smp problems. This patch was meant for "willing to test"
crowd. I can send it to you if you want.

Bharata.

I can't seem to find it in the 2.4.4 patch
ftp://oss.sgi.com/www/projects/lkcd/download/3.1.3/v2.4-kernel-patches/lkcd-2.4.4.diff

am I looking at the wrong version?

Hi all,

Does any one have any idea when we can expect lkcd in the main kernel
release? It seems to be pretty stable now.

Also has anyone considered putting a hook into the SysRq  key sequence
to get it to crash on demand? I put one in on my system and find it very
useful in diagnosing hangs.

This is already present. ALT+SYSRQ+c is the sequence. But haven't seen

this

working(atleast in SMP), as, here the dumping is from interrupt context.
