Right, I don't want to expose any MCA internals to other subsystems
unless it is really necessary.
AFAICT, you need an ON and OFF switch for CMCI which is callable from
outside. So you can adapt/adjust the code in mce_intel.c to do so
without adding any other code.
Unless I'm missing something. But I don't think so, the high-level
sequence looks like this:
* MCA init
-> CMCI init
* APEI init:
-> if FF
-> CMCI off
At a quick glance, simply doing:
on_each_cpu(cmci_clear_func, NULL, 1);
should work. You'd need to define a proper cmci_clear_func prototype but
that should be trivial...
Pretty straight-forward, no?
Thanks.
