Hi all,

this is an attempt to include pramfs in mainline. At the moment pramfs
has been included in LTSI kernel. Since last review the code is more
or less the same but, with a really big thanks to Vladimir Davydov and
Parallels, the development of fsck has been started and we have now
the possibility to correct fs errors due to corruption. It's a "young"
tool but we are working on it. You can clone the code from our repos:

git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/pramfs/code pramfs-code
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/pramfs/Tools pramfs-Tools

I'm a bit confused, what kind of non-volatile RAM is your fs targeting?
Wouldn't it make sense to use pstore like
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/nvram.c does?


Usually battery-backed SRAM, but actually it can be used in any piece of ram directly accessible and it provides a normal and complete fs interface. Usually I do the fs test remapping my system ram. You can find documentation here:
