This patch adds the ability to read firmware logs from the adapter. The driver registers a buffer with the adapter that is then written to by the adapter. The adapter posts CQEs to indicate content updates in the buffer. While the adapter is writing to the buffer in a circular fashion, an application will poll the driver to read the next amount of log data from the buffer. Driver log buffer size is configurable via the ras_fwlog_buffsize sysfs attribute. Verbosity to be used by firmware when logging to host memory is controlled through the ras_fwlog_level attribute. The ras_fwlog_func attribute enables or disables loggy by firmware.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
