Message-ID: <20070605215242.GA16967@google.com>

Subject: [PATCH] Make i386 kernel show the segfaults in kernel dmesg, like x86_64.
Hello,
This patch makes the i386 behave the same way that x86_64 does when a
segfault happens. A line gets printed to the kernel log so that tools
that need to check for failures can behave more uniformly between
different kernels. Like x86_64, it can be disabled by setting
debug.exception-trace sysctl variable to 0 (or by doing
echo 0 > /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace)
Same behaviour can be extended to other architectures, if needed.
cheers,
Masoud.
