the number of uncorrectable errors is useful from a system point of

I forgot: so altr_edac_a10_ecc_irq() panics on uncorrectable errors. Do we want
to do that even for UEs coming from the network...?

Seems a bit overboard to me...


Yes, as currently submitted, it is overboard and I'll fix this in the next patch submission. In the uncorrectable error case, I plan to just count the error. I'll add a constant flag in the Ethernet module's edac_device_prv_data to determine if the panic should be bypassed.
