I have attached a kernel module (out of tree build) that can do oops, bug,
warn, and panic on demand. It is not
part of the mainline nor is it in a kernel package at this point, mainly
because it should be for internal testing _only_.
README and build script included.
In addition, I noticed today that for some reason, key portions of the oops/bug
messages are not sent to
/var/log/messages. They are placed in /var/log/kern.log however. The impact
of this is that the log scanner cannot
find the start of the sequence. Since the use of "/var/log/messages", either
the kerneloops code has to be changed
by adding an additional conf file parameter or /etc/syslog.conf has to be
changed to send all kernel messages to
/var/log/messages rather than the select set it does now:
*.=info;*.=notice;*.=warning;\
auth,authpriv.none;\
cron,daemon.none;\
mail,news.none -/var/log/messages
It would be a good idea to change the url to point elsewhere than
kerneloops.org when testing...
