[PATCH 5/5] drm/panic: Add panic description

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Now that kmsg dump callback has the description parameter, use it in
the user panic screen.
This is the string passed to panic(), like "VFS: Unable to mount root
fs on xxx" or "Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0xxxx".
It gives a hint on why the panic occurred, without being too cryptic.
