If that were the case universally, then ramoops pstore backend would not work either? And yet we get the last kernel logs via the pstore for many years now, on embedded-ish devices. From my reading, ECC-enabled DRAM is not present on lots of systems and IIRC, pstore ramoops has its own ECC. Or did I miss a recent trend with ECC-enabled DRAM? - Joel > > -Tony
