VMCORE-DMESG(8)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay bestie, welcome to VMCORE-DMESG(8) — the manual page for vmcore-dmesg, your new fave little vmcore whisperer. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

vmcore-dmesg  vmcore

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So vmcore-dmesg does one iconic thing: it extracts the dmesg from a vmcore and writes it to standard out. 💅 No cap, that's the whole vibe.

It works against either /proc/vmcore in a crash dump capture context, or a copy of /proc/vmcore that has been saved for later analysis. 🫶

And the slay detail? A single build of vmcore-dmesg should work against any linux vmcore written/created on any architecture. Literally cross-architecture main character energy. 👑
