DMESG(1) User Commands DMESG(1)
NAME
dmesg - print or control the kernel ring buffer
SYNOPSIS
dmesg [options]
dmesg --clear
dmesg --read-clear [options]
dmesg --console-level level
dmesg --console-on
dmesg --console-off
DESCRIPTION
dmesg is used to examine or control the kernel ring buffer.
The default action is to read all messages from kernel ring buffer.
OPTIONS
The --clear, --read-clear, --console-on, --console-off and --console-level options are mutually exclusive.
-C, --clear
Clear the ring buffer.
-c, --read-clear
Clear the ring buffer contents after printing.
-D, --console-off
Disable printing messages to the console.
-d, --show-delta
Display the timestamp and time delta spent between messages. If used together with --notime then only the time delta without the
timestamp is printed.
-e, --reltime
Display the local time and delta in human readable format.
-E, --console-on
Enable printing messages to the console.
-F, --file file
Read log from file.
-f, --facility list
Restrict output to defined (comma separated) list of facilities. For example
dmesg --facility=daemon
will print messages from system daemons only. For all supported facilities see dmesg --help output.
-H, --human
Enable human readable output. See also --color, --reltime and --nopager.
-h, --help
Print a help text and exit.
-k, --kernel
Print kernel messages.
-L, --color
Colorize important messages.
-l, --level list
Restrict output to defined (comma separated) list of levels. For example
dmesg --level=err,warn
will print error and warning messages only. For all supported levels see dmesg --help output.
-n, --console-level level
Set the level at which logging of messages is done to the console. The level is a level number or abbreviation of the level name.
For all supported levels see dmesg --help output.
For example, -n 1 or -n alert prevents all messages, except emergency (panic) messages, from appearing on the console. All levels
of messages are still written to /proc/kmsg, so syslogd(8) can still be used to control exactly where kernel messages appear. When
the -n option is used, dmesg will not print or clear the kernel ring buffer.
-P, --nopager
Do not pipe output into a pager, the pager is enabled for --human output.
-r, --raw
Print the raw message buffer, i.e., do not strip the log level prefixes.
Note that the real raw format depends on method how dmesg(1) reads kernel messages. The /dev/kmsg uses different format than sys-
log(2). For backward compatibility dmesg(1) returns data always in syslog(2) format. The real raw data from /dev/kmsg is possible
to read for example by command 'dd if=/dev/kmsg iflag=nonblock'.
-S, --syslog
Force to use syslog(2) kernel interface to read kernel messages. The default is to use /dev/kmsg rather than syslog(2) since kernel
3.5.0.
-s, --buffer-size size
Use a buffer of size to query the kernel ring buffer. This is 16392 by default. (The default kernel syslog buffer size was 4096 at
first, 8192 since 1.3.54, 16384 since 2.1.113.) If you have set the kernel buffer to be larger than the default then this option
can be used to view the entire buffer.
-T, --ctime
Print human readable timestamps. The timestamp could be inaccurate!
The time source used for the logs is not updated after system SUSPEND/RESUME.
-t, --notime
Do not print kernel's timestamps.
-u, --userspace
Print userspace messages.
-V, --version
Output version information and exit.
-w, --follow
Wait for new messages. This feature is supported on systems with readable /dev/kmsg only (since kernel 3.5.0).
-x, --decode
Decode facility and level (priority) number to human readable prefixes.
