[RFC PATCH 5/9] ACPI: APEI: GHES: Use ERST to serialize APEI generic error before panic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In certain scenarios (ie. hosts/guests with root filesystems on
NFS/iSCSI where networking software and/or hardware fails, and thus
kdump fails), it is necessary to serialize hardware error information
available for post-mortem debugging.

Save the hardware error log into flash via ERST before go panic, the
hardware error log can be gotten from the flash after system boot
successful again, which is very useful in production.
