Subject: [PATCH] rasdaemon (replacement for mcelog)

This is policy for rasdaemon, the new replacement for mcelog. The
/dev/mcelog device is now an obsolete kernel feature that can be enabled
for backward compatibility and rasdaeon with tracefs is the new way.

I've tested this and it seems to work OK, but all my servers are working
well so I haven't been able to test the case of actually detecting an
error. It would be good if someone with a known damaged server could give
it a go.

I think this is ready for merging.

Please use the <summary></summary> for description. We have an api
browser (make doc) and the description should end up there as well.

<summary>Reliability, Availability and Serviceability (RAS) logging tool.</summary>

I would omit the url because those are often subject to change anyway.

Someone should at some point maybe consider creating a files_state_file()
for /var/lib so that we can differentiate there

I agree if we have this amount of description it should go in the XML, but the
module level actually has a <desc> tag that goes after <summary>. I like
Dominick's summary, but the Russel's comment can go in the module <desc>.

The URL can remain. Yes, it can change, but at least there are some breadcrumbs
if this program becomes obsolete or unmaintained.

So you mean having the following in rasdaemon.if ?

## <summary>RAS (Reliability, Availability and Serviceability) logging tool</
summary>
##
## <desc>
## rasdaemon is a RAS (Reliability, Availability and Serviceability) logging
## tool. It currently records memory errors, using the EDAC tracing events.
## EDAC are drivers in the Linux kernel that handle detection of ECC errors
## from memory controllers for most chipsets on x86 and ARM architectures.
