30*0Sstevel@tonic-gateThe files in this directory build the "eft.so" plugin to the
31*0Sstevel@tonic-gatefault management daemon (fmd).  This plugin is a diagnosis engine
32*0Sstevel@tonic-gatedriven by one or more eversholt fault tree (.eft) files.
33*0Sstevel@tonic-gate
34*0Sstevel@tonic-gateeft.c implements the diagnosis engine entry points expected by
35*0Sstevel@tonic-gatethe fmd.  The diagnosis engine is considered platform-neutral
36*0Sstevel@tonic-gatecode and is being used on other, non-Solaris platforms.  The platform
37*0Sstevel@tonic-gatespecific services it requires are either provided by the fmd interfaces,
38*0Sstevel@tonic-gateor by the routines in platform.c in this directory.
39*0Sstevel@tonic-gate
40*0Sstevel@tonic-gateMost of the files that go into building eft.so are shared with the
41*0Sstevel@tonic-gateeversholt compiler.  Those files are pulled in by the Makefile
42*0Sstevel@tonic-gatein this directory.  They live in:
43*0Sstevel@tonic-gate	usr/src/cmd/fma/eversholt/common
44*0Sstevel@tonic-gate
45*0Sstevel@tonic-gateWhen running under Solaris, eft.so uses the hardware topology library
46*0Sstevel@tonic-gate(libtopo) to collect configuration information.
