Yeah, if I inject an "sw" type here, I get immediately:
[ 264.740840] [Hardware Error]: Corrected error, no action required.
[ 264.740942] [Hardware Error]: CPU:2 (17:1:2) MC4_STATUS[-|CE|MiscV|AddrV|-|SyndV|CECC|-|-|Scrub]: 0x9c7d410092080813
[ 264.741074] [Hardware Error]: Error Addr: 0x000000006d3d483b
[ 264.741169] [Hardware Error]: IPID: 0x0000000000000000, Syndrome: 0x0000000000000000
[ 264.741279] [Hardware Error]: Bank 4 is reserved.
[ 264.741368] [Hardware Error]: cache level: L3/GEN, mem/io: MEM, mem-tx: RD, part-proc: SRC (no timeout)
but doing a hw injection seems to do all that it should do:
[ 245.658175] mce: do_inject: CPIU2, toggling...
[ 245.658375] mce: prepare_msrs
[ 245.658507] mce: trigger_mce: CPU2
but nothing happens.
Yazen, are we missing something here?
See upthread for details - thread is on linux-edac@.
Thx.
