The only requirement the current mcelog parser has is (that is what it actually uses, it parses more things but I abandoned them): - List of DIMMs (type 17) - It's useful if they have the correct size for display to the user. - Correct serial/part numbers/manufacturer are also useful (for display), but not strictly required. - Locator should match the silk screen label of the DIMM on the board - Bank Locator is in the format prefix_Node%u_Channel%u_Dimm%u prefix can be arbitary, but should not contain '_' Node matching SOCKETID coming from CPU, Channel matching Channel, Dimm matching Dimm number from CPU. This requirement is the only extension over the standard. -Andi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
