linux - dmesg 没有记录任何东西

Question

dmesg 打印的日志从两个月前就没有更新了，即使我们上周有很多进程被 OOM 杀死。

什么是 dmesg 源以及如何查看系统日志是否正常工作？

dmesg 输出:

服务器时间似乎有一段时间是错误的(2016 年)(我不知道为什么)，但现在已修复:

Answer 1

什么是dmesg 源码:dmesg 读取存储在内核缓冲区which log_buf 中的日志。dmesg 立即读取 printk 缓冲区并将其转储到 shell。

cat/proc/kmsg 可用于查看日志是否存储在 printk 缓冲区中，该缓冲区在存储时不断读取 printk 日志。

但是由于您上周尝试过终止进程并在 dmesg 中显示这些日志，因此我建议您检查系统的日期和时间设置。
