This introduces mtdpstore, which is similar to mtdoops but more powerful. It uses pstore/blk, and aims to store panic and oops logs to a flash partition, where pstore can later read back and present as files in the mounted pstore filesystem. To make mtdpstore work, the "blkdev" of pstore/blk should be set as MTD device name or MTD device number. For more details, see Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk.rst This solves a number of issues: - Work duplication: both of pstore and mtdoops do the same job storing panic/oops log. They have very similar logic, registering to kmsg dumper and storing logs to several chunks one by one. - Layer violations: drivers should provides methods instead of polices. MTD should provide read/write/erase operations, and allow a higher level drivers to provide the chunk management, kmsg dump configuration, etc. - Missing features: pstore provides many additional features, including presenting the logs as files, logging dump time and count, and supporting other frontends like pmsg, console, etc. Signed-off-by: WeiXiong Liao <liaoweixiong@allwinnertech.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200511233229.27745-11-keescook@chromium.org/ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1589266715-4168-1-git-send-email-liaoweixiong@allwinnertech.com Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
