[Bug 1336462] Re: Make apport collect some Power information

 

Hi Martin 
Thanks for your comment 
Off course the print statement will disappear.

I will attach the /tmp/test.apport

As for the 2 questions I raised and the wondering you have here is what the developer of the initial query tool (in sosreport) answered:
 
> Mostly for /proc/device-tree/  as a tar file or separated file
question ?:

We should copy this dir as is. (cp -r /proc/device-tree <dest dir>). Then
we can tar <dest dir>.

/proc/device-tree contains all device related information. We need this to
debug kernel related bugs, not required for user space issues like package
installation etc.

NVRAM contains vital information about host etc.. This is required for
debugging kernel/platform related bugs, not for user space.

Title:
  Make apport collect some Power information

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  On power/ppc64el system, we would need to enhance current apport reporting tool which some information like file content or commands output including
            "/proc/device-tree/"
              "/proc/loadavg"
              "/proc/locks"
             "/proc/misc"
              "/proc/swaps"
              "/proc/version"
              "/dev/nvram"
              "/var/log/platform"
              "ppc64_cpu --smt"
              "ppc64_cpu --cores-present"
              "ppc64_cpu --cores-on"
              "ppc64_cpu --run-mode"
             "ppc64_cpu --frequency"
             "ppc64_cpu --dscr"

  Readme says : For complete instructions, see /usr/share/doc/apport/package-hooks.txt but
  cat: /usr/share/doc/apport/package-hooks.txt: No such file or directory

  Do I understand correctly I would need to create a file (for example)
  named : /usr/share/apport/general-hooks/power.py ?

  Other questions:
  Do you have common functions to put output of commands in logfile ?
  do you have common functions to copy config file tree content to log file or should I create the list of file and copy content of each file to the logfile ?
