pstore/blk: Support non-block storage devices

2020-06-01T02:49:00+00:00

Add support for non-block devices (e.g. MTD). A non-block driver calls pstore_blk_register_device() to register iself. In addition, pstore/zone is updated to handle non-block devices, where an erase must be done before a write. Without this, there is no way to remove records stored to an MTD.

pstore/zone: Provide way to skip "broken" zone for MTD devices

2020-06-01T02:48:56+00:00

One requirement to support MTD devices in pstore/zone is having a way to declare certain regions as broken. Add this support to pstore/zone. The MTD driver should return -ENOMSG when encountering a bad region, which tells pstore/zone to skip and try the next one.

pstore/zone: Introduce common layer to manage storage zones

2020-05-30T17:34:03+00:00

Implement a common set of APIs needed to support pstore storage zones, based on how ramoops is designed. This will be used by pstore/blk with the intention of migrating pstore/ram in the future.
