Subject: [PATCH] add syslog printing to xmon debugger.
From: Linas Vepstas <linas@austin.ibm.com>
Patch-mainline: Not yet
This patch 'dmesg'/printk log buffer printing to xmon. I find this
useful because crashes are almost always preceeded by interesting
printk's. This patch is simple & straightforward, except for one
possibly controversial aspect: it embeds a small snippet in
kernel/printk.c to return the location of the syslog. This is
needed because kallsyms and even CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL is not enough
to reveal the location of log_buf. This code is about 90%
cut-n-paste of earlier code from Keith Owens.
