From d999bd9392dea7c1a9ac43b8680b22c4425ae4c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Feng Tang Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2019 15:28:17 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] panic: add options to print system info when panic happens Kernel panic issues are always painful to debug, partially because it's not easy to get enough information of the context when panic happens. And we have ramoops and kdump for that, while this commit tries to provide a easier way to show the system info by adding a cmdline parameter, referring some idea from sysrq handler.
