Subject: [PATCH v3 22/22] netoops: Add a user programmable blob to the netoops packet.
Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2010 13:30:55 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101214213054.17022.64736.stgit@mike.mtv.corp.google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101214212846.17022.64836.stgit@mike.mtv.corp.google.com>

In our environment, it is important for us to capture motherboard name
and firmware version for consideration when analyzing netoops dumps.

We would like to collect this information in userland at system startup
(in platform specific ways) and plug this information into the netoops
driver via /sys/kernel/netoops/netoops_user_blob.

Files introduced:
  /sys/kernel/netoops/netoops_user_blob

Signed-off-by: Mike Waychison <mikew@google.com>
---
Changelog:
- v3
  - Rewritten to support an opaque user blob, rather than fw_version and
    board_name specifically.
