Subject: [PATCH 2.6.23] SysRq: print hotkey info while pressing undef key,
try 3
Compared to try 2, there are some little changes according to Valdis and Frans'
feedbacks.
For SysRq, we just can get hot key list from Documentation/sysrq.txt
, but in the most of cases, the user can't access it by hand on
using SysRq to debug, so it is better for SysRq to provide an online
help for the users.
SysRq has already provided a similiar help before this patch, but it
is not so clear that the user doesn't know what happened and what
he/she should do.
In addition, that funtion has a big loop with another big loop
embedded which is very inefficient, it is intended to skip some hot
key help info for such a function as "Changing Loglevel", just print
a help info for this, that is very unnecessary. In fact, the key '0'
- '8' have different results the user should know.
This patch adds this online help function, it'll print the whole hot
key list and corresponding function descriptions, it can print the new
defined hot key without any changed needed.
The output is below on pressing an undefined hot key before this patch:
SysRq : HELP : loglevel0-8 reBoot Crashdump tErm Full kIll saK showMem
Nice powerOff showPc show-all-timers(Q) unRaw Sync showTasks Unmount
shoW-blocked-tasks
But after applying this patch, the output is:
SysRq :
this hot key isn't defined.
SysRq Help Information:
Hot Key Function Description
======= ====================
0-8 Changing Loglevel To 0-8
b Resetting
c Trigger a crashdump
e Terminate All Tasks
f Manual OOM execution
i Kill All Tasks
k SAK
m Show Memory
n Nice All RT Tasks
o Power Off
p Show Regs
q Show Pending Timers
r Keyboard mode set to XLATE
s Emergency Sync
t Show State
u Emergency Remount R/O
w Show Blocked State
