If the error is severe enough, the kernel handles automatically, i.e. memory poisoning and recovery. In all the other cases it is not severe enough. - location: this is contained in the ->cpu field. - silkscreen_label: yeah, I'm getting a, say, a Data Cache error during an L1 linefill from L2, what the f*ck does the silkscreen label mean for such an error?! Well, nobody knows wtf it means! - error_msg: already there in my patch. So go and read and try _understanding_ this before you come back with more crap, ok? > Running away from this discussion won't help at all. Not running away - trying not to waste time with bullshit. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris.
