See the callers of received_SIGINT() for example. I see... And while I redo the test, I can see SIGINT work again, prompt the input > when type three ctrl+c. No idea why previous ctrl+c not working... I still get a another display issue regarding the ctrl+c. I use the "log" command to show the kernel dmesg, and always the message buffer is large which cannot be displayed in one screen. So I could see the below notice in the foot of the screen: -- MORE -- forward: <SPACE>, <ENTER> or j backward: b or k quit: q If I type "ctrl+c" when the message still not get fully displayed, eventually I would see the previous only one foot notice would show up several and keep growing. Like this: [ 413.741638] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 [ 413.749725] pgd = d3e90000 [ 413.752441] [00000000] *pgd=12109831, *pte=00000000, *ppte=00000000 -- MORE -- forward: <SPACE>, <ENTER> or j backward: b or k quit: q -- MORE -- forward: <SPACE>, <ENTER> or j backward: b or k quit: q -- MORE -- forward: <SPACE>, <ENTER> or j backward: b or k quit: q And when this abnormal happens, the <space> would be displayed normally as before, but when the whole message is drained out, the console prompt would not be displayed. And each <enter> after this abnormal, would lead to another such notice to be showed up like the message buffer itself. So is it a bug for the cmdline handling? > > Dave > Thanks, Lei -- Crash-utility mailing list Crash-utility@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/crash-utility
