This patch introduces to mmcpstore. The functioning of mmcpstore is
is similar to mtdpstore. mmcpstore works on FTL based flash devices
whereas mtdpstore works on raw flash devices. When the system crashes,
mmcpstore stores the kmsg panic and oops logs to a user specified
MMC device.

It collects the details about the host MMC device through pstore/blk
"blkdev" parameter. The user can specify the MMC device in many ways
by checking in Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk.rst.

The individual mmc host drivers have to define suitable polling
subroutines to write kmsg panic/oops logs through mmcpstore.

To enable the writing of panic and oops logs, a Cavium specific MMC
polling method is defined and thereby ensure the functioning of mmcpstore.

I don't like that changes to host drivers are needed to support this,
but perhaps there is no other good way!?

Avoid using ifdefs in common functions like these, please. I think
it's more clean to add a stub function and then just call it
unconditionally here.

As I said above, I would like to avoid host specific deployments from
being needed. Is there a way we can avoid this?

By looking at all of the code above, lots are duplicated from the mmc
block device implementation. Isn't there a way to make the pstore
block device to push a request through the regular blk-mq path
instead?

That said, I wonder why you don't call register_pstore_blk(), as I
thought that was the interface to be used for regular block devices,
no?

Looks like that this can be moved to mmc_blk_probe() function instead.

Can we do this via mmc_blk_remove() instead?

If these really will be needed, please add some comments about what

Yes, I couldn't think of a better way as polling functionality is host specific.

The regular path has pre, post processing’s and locking semantics that
are not suitable for panic write scenario. Further, the locking mechanisms are
implemented in host drivers. This is preferred to quickly complete the write
before the kernel dies.

register_pstore_blk() is for arbitrary block devices for which best effort is not defined.

The unregisters here are related to mmcpstore, nothing specific to card. Anyhow, 
I would like to make a small change to compile mmcpstore as part of mmc blk.

I am sorry, but this doesn't make sense to me.

When it comes to complete the data write, the regular block I/O path
is supposed to be optimized. If there is a problem with this path,
then we should fix it, rather than adding a new path along the side
(unless there are very good reasons not to).

Exactly why isn't "best effort" good enough for mmc?

As there are no other users of register_pstore_blk(), it makes me
wonder, when it should be used then?

I am not sure I understand. If a card is removed, which has been
registered for pstore - then what should we do?

At least, it looks like a card removal will trigger a life cycle issue
for the allocated data structures. No?

The solution has to be polling based as panic write runs with interrupts disabled.
I am not sure if there is a way to write a polling function that works of all kinds
of host/dma drivers. That’s the reason I have provided hooks to define host
specific deployments. If you have better ideas, please help.

It seems there was some confusion. My comments were specific to 
mmcpstore_panic_write() as it runs with interrupts disabled.
mmcpstore_read()/mmcpstore_write() indeed go through regular
blk-mq path.

register_pstore_blk() definitely does the work. If you prefer to take that route,
it should be fine.

Pstore/blk folks might help us on this.

Hi Kees - for the benefit of everyone could you please tell us the scenarios
To prefer register_pstore_blk() and register_pstore_device()?

Right, that's a good reason. :-) Please clarify that in the commit
message and add some information around the definition of the new host
ops callbacks should be used.

No, at this point I don't, sorry. I will think more about it.

It looks like Christoph is planning for some rewrite of the pstore
code, so let's see what that means in regards to this.

Here is what I posted last month:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git/shortlog/refs/heads/pstore

Kees wanted to chime in with a few thing he'd like to see done
differently, but I've not seen the actual comments yet.

In respect to the eMMC support what I've done should mostly
just work, it would have to adopt to the slightly different
registration interface and just call register_pstore_device() with
its own ops.
