| |
I need a way to cause the kernel to oops on demand. This needs to work with an arbitrary kernel version, and it would be preferable as a module. I recall that awhile back (possibly running 2.0.x), there was a joystick driver revision that had an action (unintended) like this. I suppose I could just modify the joystick driver to deference a null pointer when a button is pressed, but I thought I'd ask if anyone had built a module/patch for this purpose already.
