CPER records describing a firmware-first error are identified by GUID.
The ghes driver currently logs, but ignores any unknown CPER records.
This prevents describing errors that can't be represented by a standard
entry, that would otherwise allow a driver to recover from an error.
The UEFI spec calls these 'Non-standard Section Body' (N.2.3 of
version 2.8).

Add a notifier chain for these non-standard/vendor-records. Callers
must identify their type of records by GUID.

Record data is copied to memory from the ghes_estatus_pool to allow
us to keep it until after the notifier has run.

Co-developed-by: is going _in conjunction with_ SoB tag which is missing here.

This tag was added as per instruction from Rafael.
I was told that I cannot add SoB tag for others unless specifically given.
Probably I will leave it with Rafael/James to help on this SoB tag
as Rafael was ok to merge this patch.

I think it's a misunderstanding somewhere. According to [1]:
"Since Co-developed-by: denotes authorship, every Co-developed-by: must be
immediately followed by a Signed-off-by: of the associated co-author."

It means either both or none.

If you made CONFIG_PCIE_HISI_ERR depend on CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_GHES,
you'd be able to get rid of these stubs, wouldn't you?  It doesn't
look like there's any point in building pcie-hisi-error.c at all
unless CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_GHES is enabled.

The stub is added because this interface is expected to use by the other drivers as well.
Some drivers may not want add the build depend on the CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_GHES
if the error reporting has less priority in the driver.
However we can add dependency on CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_GHES for building pcie-hisi-error.c.

The usual route is to add stubs when they're needed, not just in
anticipation of some need that may never materialize.

Sorry for this mess! My intention was to summarise my suggestion in the form of a patch,
I wasn't expecting you to pick it up. (and I didn't post it because there was ongoing
discussion on the second part)

I'll repost this with the Co-Developed-by stuff. You'll need to re-post it with the
series, you'll need to move your Signed-Off-By to be last when you do that.


Thanks,

James

Sure. Thanks.
Also please consider make you as the author of this patch
