[PATCH V2] ACPI, APEI: Add validation check before GHES error is recorded

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

 



When GHES error record is logged into mcelog kernel buffer,
a validation check for physical address is necessary, which prevents
invalid physical address is happened in error record.

v2->v1:
  Only report error to mcelog kernel buffer when physical address is valid.
