Subject: [PATCH] [mcelog] Start using the new sysfs tunables location
Date: Wed, 05 Sep 2012 16:02:37 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120905103237.9726.56131.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120905102156.9423.27806.stgit@localhost.localdomain>

All the current mce tunables are now available under
/sys/devices/system/machinecheck. Start using this new location, but fall back
to the older per-cpu location so that we continue working with older kernels.

 trigger is a newer method where the kernel runs mcelog on a error.
 This is configured with 
-echo /usr/sbin/mcelog > /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheck0/trigger
+echo /usr/sbin/mcelog > /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/trigger
 This is faster, but still doesn't allow mcelog to keep state,
 and has relatively high overhead for each error because a program has
 to be initialized from scratch.
