Subject: 2.2.18: Patch to SysRq code
Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2000 14:28:01 +0000 (GMT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.21.0012121410110.5152-200000@MemAlpha.CX> (raw)

Hi Alan.
The enclosed patch deals with two problems relating to the Magic SysRq
function, as follows:
1. One of my pet peeves with SysRq as implemented is the apparently
random order theoptions as listed in the SysRq help list. This
patch sorts that list into case-insensitive alphabetical order.
2. According to the above-mentioned help list, the log level can be
set in the range 0 to 8. The code additionally allows log level
9 to be set, so this was added to the list.
Best wishes from Riley.
