initiate FSP dump
ack. I can send subsequent patch that fixes up these bits.

Better define other dump type (sysdump etc) here and use it below ?
Likely yes, Is there a definitive list somewhere?
List is depending on what OPAL gives to Linux...For now
#define DUMP_TYPE_FSP 0x01
#define DUMP_TYPE_SYS 0x02
#define DUMP_TYPE_SMA 0x03
+static ssize_t init_dump_store(struct dump_obj *dump_obj,

+ const char *buf,
+ size_t count)
+{
+ dump_fips_init(DUMP_TYPE_FSP);
+ pr_info("%s: Initiated FSP dump\n", __func__);
This might mislead if OPAL fails to initiate FSP dump.. Better move this to
dump_fips_init () ?
good point. I don't think we actually process the response of FSP dump
init, which IIRC may actually be able to tell us if it failed to
initiate a dump.
Yes..
