Geliang Tang 8cfc8ddc99 pstore: add lzo/lz4 compression support
Like zlib compression in pstore, this patch added lzo and lz4
compression support so that users can have more options and better
compression ratio.

The original code treats the compressed data together with the
uncompressed ECC correction notice by using zlib decompress. The
ECC correction notice is missing in the decompression process. The
treatment also makes lzo and lz4 not working. So I treat them
separately by using pstore_decompress() to treat the compressed
data, and memcpy() to treat the uncompressed ECC correction notice.

config PSTORE
tristate "Persistent store support"
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.

This option enables ZLIB compression algorithm support.

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
depends on HAVE_MEMBLOCK
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".
