Subject: [RFC] Linux Kernel Dump Test Module

Hi,

Please find below a patch for a simple module to test Linux Kernel Dump 
mechanism. This module uses jprobes to install/activate pre-defined crash
points. At different crash points, various types of crashing scenarios 
are created like a BUG(), panic(), exception, recursive loop and stack 
overflow. The user can activate a crash point with specific type by
providing parameters at the time of module insertion. Please see the file
header for usage information. The module is based on the Linux Kernel
Dump Test Tool by Fernando <http://lkdtt.sourceforge.net>.

This module could be merged with mainline. Jprobes is used here so that the 
context in which crash point is hit, could be maintained. This implements
all the crash points as done by LKDTT except the one in the middle of 
tasklet_action(). 


Please review and comment.

Thanks
Ankita


o This patch implements the Linux Kernel Dump Test Module, to test Linux 
  kernel crashdumping mechanisms. The detailed usage information is in
  drivers/misc/lkdtm.c
