[PATCH V3 1/2] powerpc/powernv: new function to access OPAL msglog

Andrew Donnellan andrew.donnellan at au1.ibm.com
Thu Feb 11 18:36:19 AEDT 2016


Currently, the OPAL msglog/console buffer is exposed as a sysfs file, with
the sysfs read handler responsible for retrieving the log from the OPAL
buffer. We'd like to be able to use it in xmon as well.

Refactor the OPAL msglog code to create a new function, opal_msglog_copy(),
that copies to an arbitrary buffer. Separate the initialisation code into
generic memcons init and sysfs file creation.

Changes V2->V3:
- incorporate comments from Joel Stanley
- opal_msglog_sysfs_init() now bails out if opal_memcons isn't set

Changes V1->V2:
- Incorporate comments from mpe
- Move the memcons pointer out of the bin_attribute struct
- Decouple memcons init from sysfs init
