Hello Mark, Thank you for your advise. >> +prlog -n "Checking pmsg file contains TEST_STRING ... " > Mark this as 'wish to have' OK. I'll change it to "Checking pmsg file wishes to have TEST_STRING ... ". Should I change other messages in the same way? > Can TEST_STRING be given an unique value each run, so that on the the > reboot-comparison run it can be found to be an unique match? Yes. I'll append /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid content to TEST_STRING. I'll also change log directory name from date to the uuid. > Also confirm that any previous content (which may be binary) is not > present after reboot, and that totally new content is present. OK. As for pmsg, they are possible by checking if the /sys/fs/pstore/pmsg content perfectly matches the TEST_STRING which was written to /dev/pmsg before reboot. (The TEST_STRING can be left to a regular file before reboot as well as reboot_flag.) Is it OK?
