linux.git/include/linux/pstore_ram.h, branch v3.5-rc1 Linux kernel source tree pstore/ram: Add ECC support 2012-05-17T15:51:59+00:00 Anton Vorontsov anton.vorontsov@linaro.org 2012-05-17T07:15:34+00:00 39eb7e9791866973dbb7a3a6d2061d70356c7d90 This is now straightforward: just introduce a module parameter and pass the needed value to persistent_ram_new().

staging: android: persistent_ram: Move to fs/pstore/ram_core.c 2012-05-17T15:50:00+00:00 Anton Vorontsov anton.vorontsov@linaro.org 2012-05-17T07:15:08+00:00 cddb8751c80348df75149f44fc3bf38d3dd1f3e6 This is a first step for adding ECC support for pstore RAM backend: we will use the persistent_ram routines, kindly provided by Google. Basically, persistent_ram is a set of helper routines to deal with the [optionally] ECC-protected persistent ram regions. A bit of Makefile, Kconfig and header files adjustments were needed because of the move.

ramoops: Move to fs/pstore/ram.c 2012-05-16T15:06:37+00:00 Anton Vorontsov anton.vorontsov@linaro.org 2012-05-16T12:43:08+00:00 1894a253db97059bc299b834b76f665bc6586b1d Since ramoops was converted to pstore, it has nothing to do with character devices nowadays. Instead, today it is just a RAM backend for pstore. The patch just moves things around. There are a few changes were needed because of the move: 1. Kconfig and Makefiles fixups, of course. 2. In pstore/ram.c we have to play a bit with MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX, this is needed to keep user experience the same as with ramoops driver (i.e. so that ramoops.foo kernel command line arguments would still work).
