[Patch v2] efi: cper: Add support for printing Firmware Error Record Reference

From: Punit Agrawal
Date: Tue May 12 2020 - 00:55:37 EST


While debugging a boot failure, the following unknown error record was
seen in the boot logs.

<...>
BERT: Error records from previous boot:
[Hardware Error]: event severity: fatal
[Hardware Error]: Error 0, type: fatal
[Hardware Error]: section type: unknown, 81212a96-09ed-4996-9471-8d729c8e69ed
[Hardware Error]: section length: 0x290
[Hardware Error]: 00000000: 00000001 00000000 00000000 00020002 ................
[Hardware Error]: 00000010: 00020002 0000001f 00000320 00000000 ........ .......
[Hardware Error]: 00000020: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 ................
[Hardware Error]: 00000030: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 ................
<...>

On further investigation, it was found that the error record with
UUID (81212a96-09ed-4996-9471-8d729c8e69ed) has been defined in the
UEFI Specification at least since v2.4 and has recently had additional
fields defined in v2.7 Section N.2.10 Firmware Error Record Reference.

Add support for parsing and printing the defined fields to give users
a chance to figure out what went wrong.

Hi Ard,

I've updated the patch based on your feedback.

As you noted, some aspects of the spec make it a bit tricky to support
all revisions in a nice way (e.g., size check) but this version should
fix existing issues.

Thanks,
Punit

v1[0] -> v2:
* Simplified error record structure definition
* Fixed size check
* Added comment to clarify offset calculation for dumped data
* Style fixes for multiline if blocks
