Nov 24 21:04:52 <rob_w> o/
Nov 24 21:05:13 <rob_w> ive come here as i ve a kernel issue but no logs about it .. 
Nov 24 21:06:10 <rob_w> so my situation is desperate and getting worse ... what wonders could i achive with a non-intrusive hardware logger ?
Nov 24 21:07:11 <rob_w> my system is cortex-a8 .. any chances ?
Nov 24 21:08:32 <roxfan> what kind of issue? and what kind of device?
Nov 24 21:09:58 <rob_w> the issue is that my linux freezes without any frther notice
Nov 24 21:10:15 <rob_w> its a all omap3530 and omap3730 devices 
Nov 24 21:11:00 <rob_w> they run custom design embedded boxes 
Nov 24 21:11:18 <rob_w> and i am unsure if its hw or software or both 
Nov 24 21:11:27 <rob_w> very random but constant 
Nov 24 21:11:49 <rob_w> had to fire up the hw watchdog now to at least get back into buisness
Nov 24 21:12:00 <rob_w> but no trace yet 
Nov 24 21:12:40 <rob_w> some sort of worst case , which i could imagine myself for me
Nov 24 21:16:30 <roxfan> well, if it's a custom device i guess it should have jtag brought out
Nov 24 21:16:50 <roxfan> with jtag you can connect and see where it's stuck
Nov 24 21:17:14 <rob_w> yeah .. tomorrow will tell if will have that option 
Nov 24 21:17:31 <rob_w> otherwise my company will go down in flames ;-)
Nov 24 21:18:05 <rob_w> i terms of linux i would assume that syslogging to serial console is the closest i could do, right ?
Nov 24 21:18:35 <rob_w> logging to any device or filesystem seems to me farther away , right ?
Nov 24 21:22:07 <roxfan> yeah, serial is probably the least problematic
Nov 24 21:33:06 <rob_w> k cool
