I'm interested in improving oops logging for ppc.
Two enhancements come to mind:

1. Log a few bytes of instruction space like other
architectures do, e.g.
http://lists.linuxppc.org/linuxppc-dev/199812/msg00109.html

2. Log module names and address ranges, as Andrea Arcangeli
proposed in
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=102772338115172&w=2
and currently implements with the patch
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/kernels/v2.4/2.4.23pre6aa3/90_module-oops-tracking-3

Is anyone aware of improvements along those lines,
or does anyone have objections to this sort of change,
before I dive in and implement them for the latest 2.4 for ppc?

(See also my post today to lkml,
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=106608037825960&w=2
about making ksymoops aware of Andrea's enhanced oops logging. )

Thanks!
