Subject: [PATCH 5/8] pstore: Improve and update some comments and status output
Date: Thu, 1 Nov 2018 16:51:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181101235200.28584-6-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181101235200.28584-1-keescook@chromium.org>
This improves and updates some comments:
- dump handler comment out of sync from calling convention
- fix kern-doc typo
and improves status output:
- reminder that only kernel crash dumps are compressed
- do not be silent about ECC infrastructure failures
