  • 95b570c9c   Taint kernel after WARN_ON(condition) ... Browse Code »

    The kernel is sent to tainted within the warn_on_slowpath() function, and
    whenever a warning occurs the new taint flag 'W' is set. This is useful to
    know if a warning occurred before a BUG by preserving the warning as a flag
    in the taint state.

    This does not work on architectures where WARN_ON has its own definition.
    These archs are:
    1. s390
    2. superh
    3. avr32
    4. parisc

    The maintainers of these architectures have been added in the Cc: list
    in this email to alert them to the situation.

    The documentation in oops-tracing.txt has been updated to include the
    new flag.

  • bcdcd8e72   Report that kernel is tainted if there was an OOPS ... Browse Code »

    If the kernel OOPSed or BUGed then it probably should be considered as
    tainted. Thus, all subsequent OOPSes and SysRq dumps will report the
    tainted kernel. This saves a lot of time explaining oddities in the
    calltraces.

  • dcecc6c70   doc/oops-tracing: add Code: decode info ... Browse Code »

    Add info that the Code: bytes line contains or (wxyz) in some
    architecture oops reports and what that means.

    Add a script by Andi Kleen that reads the Code: line from an Oops report
    file and generates assembly code from the hex bytes.
