I recently ran into this problem that the new log buffer is a pain to dump from qemu gdb. fwiw there's already some kdump macros in Documentation/kdump Since you obsoleted them you could remove those (and for log buffer they do not work anymore) I don't like the lx-* prefixes. -Andi -- ak@linux.intel.com -- Speaking for myself only -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
