# HG changeset patch # User Matt Wilson <msw@xxxxxxxxxx> # Date 1349118165 -3600 # Node ID ffac3db27e2ea6b8f393bcca3d6eb40d5d05b9d1 # Parent ef898f37a560d56e1559e2acb12b49baeb3f25b8 xen/console: introduce a 'w' debug-key that dumps the console ring This patch adds a new 'w' debug-key, chosen from the limited remaining keys only due to its proximity to 'q', that dumps the console ring to configured console devices. It's useful to for tracking down how an unresponsive system got into a broken state via serial console.
