Hi Edward, thanks for the patch.
How can I try the dmesg using /dev/kmsg with the caller support?
I tried the latest one [1] and "dmesg -S" prints them but "dmesg" doesn't.
# ./dmesg -S

I would like to make the log format consistent with "dmesg" output.
# ./makedumpfile --dump-dmesg /proc/kcore a
The dmesg log is saved to a.
makedumpfile Completed.
