The only references I could find to scan log dump support are several Power 4+ systems, in particular the IntelliStation POWER 9114 and pSeries 615, which were released in 2003 at the same time this code was originally introduced. Historical Linux commit form February 2003: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/?id=f92e361842d5251e50562b09664082dcbd0548bb IntelliStation and pSeries docs: http://ps-2.retropc.se/basil.holloway/ALL%20PDF/380635.pdf http://ps-2.kev009.com/rs6000/manuals/p/p615-6C3-6E3/6C3_and_6E3_Users_Guide_SA38-0629.pdf Current firmware RTAS implementations have no reference to ibm,scan-log-dump, and a long standing developer for that code has no recollection of its existence. This appears to be a straggler from RPA and Power 4 days. Based on my understanding that we dropped support Power 4 in mainline this looks pretty orphaned to me and a solid candidate for removal barring and insight from someone else that knows better. +1 Feel free to add my RB tag to any non-RFC followup.
