Currently if you are in xmon without an oops etc. to view the kernel version you have to type "d $linux_banner" - not necessarily obvious. As this is useful information, append to the output of "e" command.
Example output: $mon> e cpu 0x1: Vector: 0 at [c0000000f879ba80] pc: c000000000081718: sysrq_handle_xmon+0x68/0x80 lr: c000000000081718: sysrq_handle_xmon+0x68/0x80 sp: c0000000f879bbe0 msr: 8000000000009033 current = 0xc0000000f604d5c0 paca = 0xc00000000fdc0480 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x01 pid = 2467, comm = bash Linux version 4.4.0-rc2-00008-gc51af91c3ab3-dirty (rashmica@circle) (gcc version 5.1.1 20150629 (GCC) ) #45 SMP Wed Nov 25 10:25:12 AEDT 2015 Signed-off-by: Rashmica Gupta <rashm...@gmail.com> --- Added example output and word wrapping. arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c b/arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c index df05bd2fca07..6d3d9d031aea 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c @@ -1528,6 +1528,8 @@ static void excprint(struct pt_regs *fp) if (trap == 0x700) print_bug_trap(fp); + + printf(linux_banner); } static void prregs(struct pt_regs *fp) -- 2.5.0 _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
