[PATCH printk] Flush console log from kernel_power_off()

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

 



Kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y can lose significant console output
and shutdown time, which hides shutdown-time RCU issues from rcutorture.
Therefore, make pr_flush() public and invoke it after then last print
in kernel_power_off().
