[PATCH 5.7 094/112] Drivers: hv: Change flag to write log level in panic msg to false

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

 



From: Joseph Salisbury <joseph.salisbury@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 77b48bea2fee47c15a835f6725dd8df0bc38375a upstream.

When the kernel panics, one page of kmsg data may be collected and sent to
Hyper-V to aid in diagnosing the failure.  The collected kmsg data typically
 contains 50 to 100 lines, each of which has a log level prefix that isn't
very useful from a diagnostic standpoint.  So tell kmsg_dump_get_buffer()
to not include the log level, enabling more information that *is* useful to
fit in the page.

Requesting in stable kernels, since many kernels running in production are
stable releases.
