Can you flesh that design out a bit for me, I don't entirely get how it's going
to work.

The kernel gets the rtas hotplug events (in rtasd.c) and spits them out to
userspace, which then writes them back in ?

Why is this different between phyp and KVM?

Internally to the kernel you mean?

That is really confusing, but I think it's just a diff artifact?

I don't see how that can happen?

struct pseries_errorlog {
	__be16 id;			/* 0x00 2-byte ASCII section ID	*/
	__be16 length;			/* 0x02 Section length in bytes	*/
	uint8_t version;		/* 0x04 Section version		*/
	uint8_t subtype;		/* 0x05 Section subtype		*/
	__be16 creator_component;	/* 0x06 Creator component ID	*/
	uint8_t data[];			/* 0x08 Start of section data	*/
};

Should you be checking for length == 0 instead ?

Also I think the code will probably end up cleaner if you do the endian
conversions immediately when you read the hp_elog, rather than passing it
around in BE and having to remember to convert at all the usages.

Please add:

  default:
	pr_warn_ratelimited("Unknown resource ..")

Or something.

Why + 1 ? It's not null-terminated AFAICS.

If you start with a struct rtas_error_log * you shouldn't need any casts.

  else
	error message at least please

Why are we putting it in /proc, can't it go in /sys/kernel like the mobility
stuff?

static ?

EOPNOTSUPP is a bit more standard.
