Message-ID: <458BC905.7050003@bx.jp.nec.com> Date: Fri, 22 Dec 2006 21:01:09 +0900 From: Keiichi KII <k-keiichi@...jp.nec.com> To: mpm@...enic.com CC: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: [RFC][PATCH -mm 0/5] proposal for dynamic configurable netconsole From: Keiichi KII <k-keiichi@...jp.nec.com> The netconsole is a very useful module for collecting kernel message under certain circumstances(e.g. disk logging fails, serial port is unavailable). But current netconsole is not flexible. For example, if you want to change ip address for logging agent, in the case of built-in netconsole, you can't change config except for changing boot parameter and rebooting your system, or in the case of module netconsole, you need to reload netconsole module. So, I propose the following extended features for netconsole. 1) support for multiple logging agents. 2) add interface to access each parameter of netconsole using sysfs. This patch is for linux-2.6.20-rc1-mm1 and is divided to each function. Your comments are very welcome.
