    scsi: lpfc: add support to retrieve firmware logs · d2cc9bcd
    James Smart authored
    This patch adds the ability to read firmware logs from the adapter. The driver
    registers a buffer with the adapter that is then written to by the adapter.
    The adapter posts CQEs to indicate content updates in the buffer. While the
    adapter is writing to the buffer in a circular fashion, an application will
    poll the driver to read the next amount of log data from the buffer.
    
    Driver log buffer size is configurable via the ras_fwlog_buffsize sysfs
    attribute. Verbosity to be used by firmware when logging to host memory is
    controlled through the ras_fwlog_level attribute.  The ras_fwlog_func
    attribute enables or disables loggy by firmware.
