Message-Id: <1255295071-13664-3-git-send-email-bernhard@bwalle.de> Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2009 23:04:31 +0200 From: Bernhard Walle <bernhard@...lle.de> To: akpm@...uxfoundation.org Cc: alan@...rguk.ukuu.org.uk, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, Bernhard Walle <bernhard@...lle.de> Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Always print panic message on current console The kernel offers with TIOCL_GETKMSGREDIRECT ioctl() the possibility to redirect the kernel messages to a specific console. However, since it's not possible to switch to the kernel message console after a panic(), it would be nice if the kernel would print the panic message on the current console.
