All the event records as defined in Event Record Identifier field of the
Common Event Record Format in CXL rev 3.0 section 8.2.9.2.1 follow the
CPER format for representing the hardware errors if reported by a
platform.
According to the CPER format, each event record including the General
Media is logged as a CXL Component Event as defined in UEFI 2.10
Section N.2.14 and is identified by a UUID as defined by Event Record
Identifier field in Common Event Record Format of CXL rev 3.0 section
8.2.9.2.1. CXL Component Event Log field in Component Events Section
corresponds to the component/event specified by the section type UUID.

I interpreted the CPER structure as not having this identifier here.
From Section N.2.14:
"For the CXL Component Event Log: Refer to the Common Event Record field
(Offset 16) of the Events Record Format for each CXL component."
This implies that the data coming from the CPER record starts at length.
Thanks for pointing this out. According to Spec, you are right. Our
records did show up the identifier. Hence, I added that field. We should
probably fix it from our end.
Meanwhile, I'm taking a look at your patches.
Thanks,
Smita
I'd be happy if my interpretation is wrong. But if I am wrong then there
is no reason to duplicate these structures which are already defined in
cxlmem.h
I was plumbing up the cxl code to make a copy from length on and splice in
the uuid from the guid passed from the Section Type.
