Author: markj Date: Mon Jan 15 00:29:17 2018 New Revision: 327980 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/327980 Log: Create a branch for integrating changes needed for netdump. netdump is a facility that allows the kernel to transmit a kernel dump over UDP to a remote server, instead of saving it to local media. This is useful for diskless systems and for centralized collection of kernel dumps in a lab environment. This implementation will provide a kernel netdump client, including hooks for some NIC drivers, and support for configuration with dumpon(8). Some extensions to the mbuf allocator make it possible to allocate mbufs/clusters after a panic using a pre-allocated pool; this is done without imposing any runtime overhead in the regular allocator and without having to modify driver tx/rx code. The netdump server component is available in the ports tree as ftp/netdumpd. Added: - copied from r327979, head/ Directory Properties: user/markj/netdump/ (props changed)
