[PATCH v2 2/5] pstore/platform: pass max_reason to kmesg dump

From: Pavel Tatashin
Date: Tue May 05 2020 - 11:45:39 EST


Add a new field to pstore_info that passes information about kmesg dump
maximum reason.

This allows a finer control of what kmesg dumps are stored on pstore
device.

Those clients that do not explicitly set this field (keep it equal to 0),
get the default behavior: dump only Oops and Panics, and dump everything
if printk.always_kmsg_dump is provided.
