Only useful if you have 9 a platform level driver that registers with pstore to 10 provide the data, so you probably should just go say "Y" 11 (or "M") to a platform specific persistent store driver 12 (e.g. ACPI_APEI on X86) which will select this for you. 13 If you don't have a platform persistent store driver, 14 say N. 15 16 config PSTORE_DEFAULT_KMSG_BYTES 17 int "Default kernel log storage space" if EXPERT 18 depends on PSTORE 19 default "10240" 20 help 21 Defines default size of pstore kernel log storage. 22 Can be enlarged if needed, not recommended to shrink it. 23 24 config PSTORE_COMPRESS 25 bool "Pstore compression (deflate)" 26 depends on PSTORE 27 select ZLIB_INFLATE 28 select ZLIB_DEFLATE 29 default y 30 help 31 Whether pstore records should be compressed before being written to 32 the backing store. This is implemented using the zlib 'deflate' 33 algorithm, using the library implementation instead of using the full 34 blown crypto API. This reduces the risk of secondary oopses or other 35 problems while pstore is recording panic metadata. 36 37 config PSTORE_CONSOLE 38 bool "Log kernel console messages" 39 depends on PSTORE 40 help 41 When the option is enabled, pstore will log all kernel 42 messages, even if no oops or panic happened. 43 44 config PSTORE_PMSG 45 bool "Log user space messages" 46 depends on PSTORE 47 select RT_MUTEXES 48 help 49 When the option is enabled, pstore will export a character 50 interface /dev/pmsg0 to log user space messages.
