Subject: Re: [PATCH] edac: sifive: Add EDAC platform driver for SiFive SoCs

Hi Yash,

Sorry for the delay on the earlier version of this - I was trying to work out what happens
when multiple edac drivers probe based on DT...

You probably don't want this bit preserved in the kernel log:

(if you put it here, it gets discarded when the patch is applied)

Having an separately posted dependency like this is tricky, as this code can't be
used/tested until the other bits are merged.

Ideally these would live in some header file.

This would be easier to read if your SIFIVE_L2_ERR_TYPE_UE were exposed via some header file.

Your notifier register calls are EXPORT_SYMBOL()d, but Kconfig forbids building this as a
module, so its not for this driver. If there is another user of this notifier-chain, won't
NOTIFY_STOP here break it?

sizeof(*p) here is how much space in struct edac_device_ctl_info you need for private
storage... but you never touch p->dci->pvt_info, so you aren't using it.

0?

Looks good to me. I think this patch should go with its two dependencies, I'm not sure why
it got split off...
