[PATCH v3 2/9] pstore: add debugfs support for causing dumps and panics

From: dragos . tatulea
Date: Thu Oct 18 2012 - 07:03:13 EST


From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx>

There are 2 debugfs files:

pstore/dump writing a kmsg dump reason code
will cause a dump to persistent
storage

pstore/panic writing anything will cause
a panic
