config PSTORE
tristate "Persistent store support"
select CRYPTO if PSTORE_COMPRESS
default n
help
This option enables generic access to platform level
persistent storage via "pstore" filesystem that can
be mounted as /dev/pstore. Only useful if you have
a platform level driver that registers with pstore to
provide the data, so you probably should just go say "Y"
(or "M") to a platform specific persistent store driver
(e.g. ACPI_APEI on X86) which will select this for you.
If you don't have a platform persistent store driver,
say N.
config PSTORE_DEFLATE_COMPRESS

This option enables DEFLATE (also known as ZLIB) compression
algorithm support.

select CRYPTO_842
help
This option enables 842 compression algorithm support.

prompt "Default pstore compression algorithm"
depends on PSTORE_COMPRESS
help
This option chooses the default active compression algorithm.
This change be changed at boot with "pstore.compress=..." on
the kernel command line.
Currently, pstore has support for 6 compression algorithms:
deflate, lzo, lz4, lz4hc, 842 and zstd.
The default compression algorithm is deflate.

config PSTORE_CONSOLE
bool "Log kernel console messages"
depends on PSTORE
help
When the option is enabled, pstore will log all kernel
messages, even if no oops or panic happened.
config PSTORE_PMSG
bool "Log user space messages"
depends on PSTORE
help
When the option is enabled, pstore will export a character
interface /dev/pmsg0 to log user space messages. On reboot
data can be retrieved from /sys/fs/pstore/pmsg-ramoops-[ID].
If unsure, say N.
config PSTORE_FTRACE
bool "Persistent function tracer"
depends on PSTORE
depends on FUNCTION_TRACER
depends on DEBUG_FS
help
With this option kernel traces function calls into a persistent
ram buffer that can be decoded and dumped after reboot through
pstore filesystem. It can be used to determine what function
was last called before a reset or panic.
If unsure, say N.
config PSTORE_RAM
tristate "Log panic/oops to a RAM buffer"
depends on PSTORE
depends on HAS_IOMEM
select REED_SOLOMON
select REED_SOLOMON_ENC8
select REED_SOLOMON_DEC8
help
This enables panic and oops messages to be logged to a circular
buffer in RAM where it can be read back at some later point.
Note that for historical reasons, the module will be named
"ramoops.ko".
For more information, see Documentation/admin-guide/ramoops.rst.
config PSTORE_ZONE
tristate
depends on PSTORE
help
The common layer for pstore/blk (and pstore/ram in the future)
to manage storage in zones.
config PSTORE_BLK
tristate "Log panic/oops to a block device"
depends on PSTORE
depends on BLOCK
select PSTORE_ZONE
default n
help
This enables panic and oops message to be logged to a block dev
where it can be read back at some later point.
For more information, see Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk.rst
If unsure, say N.
config PSTORE_BLK_BLKDEV
string "block device identifier"
depends on PSTORE_BLK
default ""
help
Which block device should be used for pstore/blk.
It accepts the following variants:
1) <hex_major><hex_minor> device number in hexadecimal representation,
with no leading 0x, for example b302.
2) /dev/<disk_name> represents the device name of disk
3) /dev/<disk_name><decimal> represents the device name and number
of partition - device number of disk plus the partition number
4) /dev/<disk_name>p<decimal> - same as the above, this form is
used when disk name of partitioned disk ends with a digit.
5) PARTUUID=00112233-4455-6677-8899-AABBCCDDEEFF representing the
unique id of a partition if the partition table provides it.
The UUID may be either an EFI/GPT UUID, or refer to an MSDOS
partition using the format SSSSSSSS-PP, where SSSSSSSS is a zero-
filled hex representation of the 32-bit "NT disk signature", and PP
is a zero-filled hex representation of the 1-based partition number.
6) PARTUUID=<UUID>/PARTNROFF=<int> to select a partition in relation
to a partition with a known unique id.
7) <major>:<minor> major and minor number of the device separated by
a colon.
NOTE that, both Kconfig and module parameters can configure
pstore/blk, but module parameters have priority over Kconfig.
config PSTORE_BLK_KMSG_SIZE
int "Size in Kbytes of kmsg dump log to store"

help
This just sets size of kmsg dump (oops, panic, etc) log for
pstore/blk. The size is in KB and must be a multiple of 4.

pstore/blk, but module parameters have priority over Kconfig.
config PSTORE_BLK_MAX_REASON
int "Maximum kmsg dump reason to store"

help
The maximum reason for kmsg dumps to store. The default is
2 (KMSG_DUMP_OOPS), see include/linux/kmsg_dump.h's
enum kmsg_dump_reason for more details.

pstore/blk, but module parameters have priority over Kconfig.

This just sets size of pmsg (pmsg_size) for pstore/blk. The size is
in KB and must be a multiple of 4.
