[PATCH 0/6] x86, mce: machine check recovery for applications

From: Tony Luck
Date: Tue Dec 13 2011 - 14:10:41 EST


Yet another version ...

Some bits should look familiar (hopefully pieces that were not too controversial
from earlier versions). Other bits are all new (e.g. part 4/6 which sets up some
functions that can safely save away the physical address of the faulting address
in the machine check handler for later retrieval in a safer execution context).

Tony Luck (6):
HWPOISON: clean up memory_failure() vs. __memory_failure()
HWPOISON: Add code to handle "action required" errors.
x86, mce: create helper function to save addr/misc when needed
x86, mce: Add mechanism to safely save information in MCE handler
x86, mce: handle "action required" errors
x86, mce: Recognise machine check bank signature for data path error
