1config PSTORE
2	bool "Persistent store support"
3	default n
4	help
5	   This option enables generic access to platform level
6	   persistent storage via "pstore" filesystem that can
7	   be mounted as /dev/pstore.  Only useful if you have
8	   a platform level driver that registers with pstore to
9	   provide the data, so you probably should just go say "Y"
10	   (or "M") to a platform specific persistent store driver
11	   (e.g. ACPI_APEI on X86) which will select this for you.
12	   If you don't have a platform persistent store driver,
13	   say N.

23	help
24	  This enables panic and oops messages to be logged to a circular
25	  buffer in RAM where it can be read back at some later point.

27	  Note that for historical reasons, the module will be named
28	  "ramoops.ko".
