Hi Huang,

Can you post some instructions on how to test this functionality?  For 
instance, I believe Linux is capable of delivering a SIGBUS to a process 
based on certain MCE's.  I'm not sure what the steps would be though to 
create a process using a particular physical memory address, generate a 
MCE for that address, and then inspect that the process received the signal.

Are you testing the patches via something like that?

Regards,

Anthony Liguori
