+ <para><filename>systemd-pstore.service</filename> is a system service that archives the
+ contents of the Linux persistent storage filesystem, pstore, to other storage,
+ thus preserving the existing information contained in the pstore, and clearing
+ pstore storage for future error events.</para>
+
+ <para>Linux provides a persistent storage file system, pstore, that can store
+ error records when the kernel dies (or reboots or powers-off). These records in
+ turn can be referenced to debug kernel problems (currently the kernel stuffs
+ the tail of the dmesg, which also contains a stack backtrace, into pstore).</para>
+
+ <para>The pstore file system supports a variety of backends that map onto persistent
+ storage, such as the ACPI ERST and UEFI variables. The pstore backends
+ typically offer a relatively small amount of persistent storage, e.g. 64KiB,
+ which can quickly fill up and thus prevent subsequent kernel crashes from
+ recording errors. Thus there is a need to monitor and extract the pstore
+ contents so that future kernel problems can also record information in the
+ pstore.</para>
+
+ <para>The pstore service is independent of the kdump service. In cloud environments
+ specifically, host and guest filesystems are on remote filesystems (eg. iSCSI
+ or NFS), thus kdump relies (implicitly and/or explicitly) upon proper operation
+ of networking software *and* hardware *and* infrastructure. Thus it may not be
+ possible to capture a kernel coredump to a file since writes over the network
+ may not be possible.</para>
+
+ <para>The pstore backend, on the other hand, is completely local and provides a path
+ to store error records which will survive a reboot and aid in post-mortem
+ debugging.</para>

+ <para>The <command>systemd-pstore</command> executable does the actual work. Upon starting,
