Subject: [PATCH 1/3] pstore: add multi-backend support
Date: Wed,  7 Feb 2024 10:19:19 +0800
Message-Id: <20240207021921.206425-2-xiangzao@linux.alibaba.com>
In-Reply-To: <20240207021921.206425-1-xiangzao@linux.alibaba.com>

Currently, pstore supports only one backend open at a time.
Specifically, due to the global variable "psinfo", pstore only accepts
the first registered backend. If a new backend wants to register later,
pstore will simply reject it and return an error. This design forced us
to close existing backend in order to use the new ones.

To enable pstore to support multiple backends, "psinfo" is replaced by
"psinfo_list", a list that holds multiple "psinfo". If multiple backends
are registered with the same frontend, the frontend is reused.

User can specify multiple backends that are allowed to be registered by
module parameter "pstore.backend=" separated by commas or "all" to
enable all available backends. If no pstore.backend was specified,
pstore would accept the first registered backend which is the same as
before.
