Hi, During kernel panic, as the name suggests kernel is going to die. So its not a good idea to save logs at that time. However, you can Register your function in panic_notifier_list. Your function will be called during panic. In that function, you can modify how the device should reboot or any other suitable action. After arch_reset, ram dumps can be saved to mmc card either through bootloader or by using mini kernel concept (allow a separate kernel to boot which will save ram dumps into mmc). Old Ram data exists till kernel boots again after reset. Not sure how in your case ram content is cleared. Ram data is cleared only when battery is removed.
