[PATCH v4 7/8] powerpc/pseries: Read of-config partition via pstore

Aruna Balakrishnaiah aruna at linux.vnet.ibm.com
Thu Jun 6 04:52:10 EST 2013


This patch set exploits the pstore subsystem to read details of
of-config partition in NVRAM to a separate file in /dev/pstore.
For instance, of-config partition details will be stored in a
file named [of-nvram-5].
