Announce: dumpfs v0.01 - common RAS output API
Quoted 4 lines · Keith Owens
Announcing dumpfs - a common API for all the RAS code that wants to save data during a kernel failure and to extract that RAS data on the next boot. The documentation file is appended to this mail.
...
I looked, but couldn't see any definition for RAS in your doc. Could you add one?
The fs/Kconfig hunk might be a nice place to define it, since naive users might see that text when configuring kernels.
http://www.kernelnewbies.org/glossary/#R does define it,
but it's so far down on
http://www.google.com/search?q=define%3Aras
that most people configuring a kernel might not be familiar with that sense.
