From b0aad7a99c1df90c23ff4bac76eea9cf25049e9e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aruna Balakrishnaiah Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2013 13:53:10 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] pstore: Add compression support to pstore Add compression support to pstore which will help in capturing more data. Initially, pstore will make a call to kmsg_dump with a bigger buffer and will pass the size of bigger buffer to kmsg_dump and then compress the data to registered buffer of registered size. In case compression fails, pstore will capture the uncompressed data by making a call again to kmsg_dump with registered_buffer of registered size. Pstore will indicate the data is compressed or not with a flag in the write callback.
