Subject: [RESEND PATCH V2] ACPI, APEI: Add validation check before GHES error is recorded
Date: Fri, 20 Apr 2012 17:24:20 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1334913860-24651-1-git-send-email-gong.chen@linux.intel.com> (raw)
When GHES error record is logged into mcelog kernel buffer,
a validation check for physical address is necessary, which prevents
invalid physical address is happened in error record.
v2->v1:
Only report error to mcelog kernel buffer when physical address is valid.
