[PATCH 09/17] ACPI, APEI, Add APEI bit support in generic _OSC call

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

 



In APEI firmware first mode, hardware error is reported by hardware to
firmware firstly, then firmware reports the error to Linux in a GHES
error record via POLL/SCI/IRQ/NMI etc.

This may result in some issues if OS has no full APEI support.  So
some firmware implementation will work in a back-compatible mode by
default.  Where firmware will only notify OS in old-fashion, without
GHES record.  For example, for a fatal hardware error, only NMI is
signaled, no GHES record.

To gain full APEI power on these machines, APEI bit in generic _OSC
call can be specified to tell firmware that Linux has full APEI
support.  This patch adds the APEI bit support in generic _OSC call.
