------- Comment From hegdevasant at in.ibm.com 2017-10-14 11:32 EDT-------
Hello,

Sorry for the delay in response.. Our guys responded long back, but made
it as *internal* comment. Hence it didn't reflect in launchpad :-(

We use avocado test framework to verify ppc64-diag. Test cases are
available under avocado-misc test cases. Let us know if you need more
details.

[1] https://github.com/avocado-framework-tests/avocado-misc-tests.git

generic/ras.py , generic/ras_extended.py contains test cases .

If you want to verify manually you can perform below steps :
PowerNV host :
- On powernv system 'opal_errd' daemon should run fine.
- `opal-elog-parse' --> lists error logging information
- diag_encl
- usysident/usysattn

- On PowerVM LPAR,
- diag_encl
- 'rtas_errd' daemon should run fine
- usysident/usysattn

Please reconsider this defect for 16.04 LTS release. Also note that
Ubuntu 17.10 contains v2.7.4. We have verified that and it works fine.

  ---uname output---
  Linux tuleta4u-lp9 4.10.0-27-generic #30~16.04.2-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 29 16:06:52 UTC 2017 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux

  ppc64-diag sits at the top of the RAS tools provided on POWER by IBM,
  consuming data from some, making determinations as to cause of
  failure, and attempting various strategies for recovery, depending on
  the situation.  It also enriches the error logs provided from the
  kernel, giving users a better understanding as to cause and potential
  solution for a problem.

  upstream repo : http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-
  diag/files/ppc64-diag/

  Current version : v2.7.4
  ~Ankit

  Please pull upstream 2.7.4 ppc64-diag tag
