Hi,

just one for tip-urgent today.

It is taking care of the case where CPUs are offlined and an #MC
happens. Fix is purposefully kept minimal for stable@. More involved
dealing with the whole issue is going to follow.

Thanks.

Hi,
	This patch requires all #MC exception errors set MCG_STATUS_RIPV = 1?
Because on offline CPUs, for #MC exception errors set MCG_STATUS_RIPV = 0
(like "Recoverable-not-continuable SRAR Type" Errors), this patch doesn't seem
to work. if this patch's "return; " in a wrong place?

Thanks

Hi Ashok,
I have two questions about this patch, could you help to check:

1, for broadcast #MC exceptions, this patch seems require #MC exception errors
set MCG_STATUS_RIPV = 1. 
But for Intel CPU, some #MC exception errors set MCG_STATUS_RIPV = 0 
(like "Recoverable-not-continuable SRAR Type" Errors), for these errors
the patch doesn't seem to work, is that okay?

2, for LMCE exceptions, this patch seems require #MC exception errors
set MCG_STATUS_RIPV = 0 to make sure LMCE be handled normally even
on offline CPU. 
For LMCE errors set MCG_STAUS_RIPV = 1, the patch prevents offline CPU
handle these LMCE errors, is that okay?

Thanks
Tony W Wang-oc
