* pstore/ram_core: Factor persistent_ram_zap() out of post_init()Anton Vorontsov2012-06-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | A handy function that we will use outside of ram_core soon. But so far just factor it out and start using it in post_init().

* pstore/ram: Should update old dmesg buffer before readingAnton Vorontsov2012-06-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Without the update, we'll only see the new dmesg buffer after the reboot, but previously we could see it right away. Making an oops visible in pstore filesystem before reboot is a somewhat dubious feature, but removing it wasn't an intentional change, so let's restore it. For this we have to make persistent_ram_save_old() safe for calling multiple times, and also extern it.

* pstore/ram: Add ECC supportAnton Vorontsov2012-05-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | 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.cAnton Vorontsov2012-05-171-0/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.cAnton Vorontsov2012-05-161-0/+17
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).
