Devlink health reporter is an instance for reporting, diagnosing and recovering from run time errors discovered by the reporters. Define it's data structure and supported operations. In addition, expose devlink API to create and destroy a reporter. Each devlink instance will hold it's own reporters list. As part of the allocation, driver shall provide a set of callbacks which will be used by devlink in order to handle health reports and user commands related to this reporter. In addition, driver is entitled to provide some priv pointer, which can be fetched from the reporter by devlink_health_reporter_priv function. For each reporter, devlink will hold a metadata of statistics, dump msg and status. For passing dumps and diagnose data to the user-space, it will use devlink fmsg API.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
