Linux kernel stable tree (mirror) https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/atom?h=linux-4.20.y 2017-05-18T14:59:06+00:00 2017-05-18T14:59:06+00:00 Julius Werner jwerner@chromium.org 2017-05-02T22:16:29+00:00 urn:sha1:7918cfc46cfad784b2aafdbbc690a96af0ae78d0 This patch redesigns the interface between the generic memconsole driver and its implementations to become more flexible than a flat memory buffer with unchanging bounds. This allows memconsoles like coreboot's to include lines that were added by runtime firmware after the driver was initialized. Since the console log size is thus no longer static, this means that the /sys/firmware/log file has to become unseekable.

One containing the architecture-independent part and the other one containing the EBDA specific part. This prepares the integration of coreboot support for the memconsole. The memconsole driver is now named as memconsole-x86-legacy. Signed-off-by: Thierry Escande <thierry.escande@collabora.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
