Re: [PATCH] pstore: pass reason to backend write callback

From: Chen Gong
Date: Tue Nov 15 2011 - 21:59:43 EST


ä 2011/11/15 7:29, Kees Cook åé:
This allows a backend to filter on the dmesg reason as well as the pstore
reason. When ramoops is switched to pstore, this is needed since it has
no interest in storing non-crash dmesg details.

We ever talked about it here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/20/468.
Matthew's patch is good enough if pstore_write can be cleaned.
