Subject: [PATCH 1/9] x86, mce: Enable MCA support by default
Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2011 16:50:58 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1319035866-29570-2-git-send-email-bp@amd64.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1319035866-29570-1-git-send-email-bp@amd64.org>
From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@amd.com>
MCA is the basic support for hardware error logging and reporting, and
it is majorly unwise to run without it so enable machine check software
support by default on x86.

Machine Check support allows the processor to notify the
kernel if it detects a problem (e.g. overheating, data corruption).
