It would avoid the need for all these tests, and additions to the filename to guarantee uniqueness. Not sure what options efivars has to create a unique, persistent "id" for each record. It's a fundamental part of how ERST works (though the unique ID is just based around a timestamp). > I acked Madper's patch 2/2 earlier today, but when I look at your test result, I'm not sure if > it is reasonable for users to make multiple numbers visible to the file name. > >> -r--r--r-- 1 root root 17499 Oct 30 13:41 dmesg-erst-5940651313304961029--2129078373-1383165669 after I added the "count = 0" initialization the filename gets a tiny bit less scary: -r--r--r-- 1 root root 17499 Oct 30 13:41 dmesg-erst-5940651313304961029-0-1383165669 -Tony -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
