From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: "Stephen M. Cameron" Subject: [PATCH 0/2] hpsa: add sysfs host attribute to indicate whether reset_devices is honored Date: Tue, 08 Mar 2011 17:09:52 -0600 Message-ID: <20110308230749.22291.56200.stgit@beardog.cce.hp.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: james.bottomley@hansenpartnership.com Cc: linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, smcameron@yahoo.com, thenzl@redhat.com, akpm@linux-foundation.org, mikem@beardog.cce.hp.com List-Id: linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org At Redhat's request, this adds a sysfs host attribute to indicate whether the reset_devices kernel parameter can be honored by the device. This enables kexec tools to warn the user if they attempt to designate a non-resettable device as the dump device. If the device is not resettable, kdump won't work. --- Stephen M.
