Subject: [PATCH] Make efi-pstore return a unique id
Date: Sat, 02 Nov 2013 00:14:26 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ppqk6qvx.fsf@redhat.com> (raw)


Pstore fs expects that backends provide a uniqued id which could avoid
pstore making entries as duplication or denominating entries the same
name. So I combine the timestamp, part and count into id.
