We got following response from RAS Developement team.

RAS team has no plans to own or support this tool. rasdaemon is specific to x86
platform and may not work on ppc64 at all.

Powerpc has its own RAS tools which are shipped through following packages and
available at https://github.com/power-ras/

ppc64-diag
lsvpd
servicelog

rasdeamon mostly deals with MCE logs. On Power, for memory errors, predictive
error analysis is done by pHyp/PRD as similar to rasdaemon on x86 platform.
pHyp then delivers these predictive errors to linux as RTAS events which
captured by rtas_errd daemon and logs into servicelog as serviceabile events
(Call home event).

We should check with SuSE on purpose of this tool on ppc64 and why do they
think this will work on ppc64. Do we really need this tool on ppc64 ? Who is
going to own/support this on ppc64 ?
