I am looking for assistance in running netconsole. I am trying to run the statically linked version since I am trying to record the screen dump that occurs with crashes during boot. In summary, my netconsole appears to work fine, but it hangs before the output matches that presented by dmesg. If I run the module version, it behaves as expected printing messages from "modprobe floppy" and others suggested on the net. The static version is silent, until I issue a command to generate a panic, "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger". I have looked at the code and get lost trying to determine what is not happening. This is too early in the boot process and there are too many spinlocks. I assume that this is interrupt driven, but cannot isolate the logic. I am currently running opensuse 42.3 with a 4.18.7 kernel. This situation is repeatable. The command on the linux boot line includes: netconsole=64001@192.168.7.60/eth0,64001@192.168.7.55/34:e6:d7:01:2a:dd The command at my receiver is: sudo nc -v -u -l 64001 | tee netconsole.log AS indicated before, all the above appears to work until the hang, so I think my setup is correct. Is there anybody that would venture to experiment and see if this also happens to somebody else? I have tried asking on kernelnewbies and even sent an email to the maintainer, but have received no adequate response. Any suggestion would be appreciated. I will offer any other info I may have omitted. Don -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
