[PATCH V3 0/5] Updates to EDAC and AMD MCE driver

Show all headers | View raw

This patchset mainly provides necessary EDAC bits to decode errors
occuring on Scalable MCA enabled processors and also updates AMD MCE
driver to program the correct MCx_MISC register address for upcoming
processors.

Patches 1, 2 and 3 are for upcoming processor.

Patches 4 and 5 are either fixing or adding comments to help in
understanding the code and do not introduce any functional changes.

Patch 1: Move MSR definition to mce.h
Patch 2: Updates to EDAC driver to decode the new error signatures
Patch 3: Fix logic to obtain correct block address
Patch 4: Fix deferred error comment
Patch 5: Add comments to amd_nb.h to describe threshold_block structure

Note 1: Introduced new patch for moving MCx_CONFIG MSR to mce.h
Note 2: The enums, amd_hwids[], and string arrays amd_core_mcablock_names[],
	amd_df_mcablock_names[] are placed in arch/x86 as there are
	follow-up patches which use them here.

Changes from V1: (per Boris suggestions)
  - Simplify error decoding routines
  - Move headers to mce.h
  - Rename enumerations and struct members (to be more descriptive)
  - Drop gerund usage
  - Remove comments that are spelling out the code

Changes from V2: (per Boris suggestions)
  - Incorporated all changes as suggested by Boris from here-
    - http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=145691594921586&w=2
    - http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=145691606221610&w=2
    - http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=145691610421627&w=2
  - No functional change is introduced

Aravind Gopalakrishnan (5):
  x86/mce: Move MCx_CONFIG MSR definition
  EDAC, MCE, AMD: Enable error decoding of Scalable MCA errors
  x86/mce/AMD: Fix logic to obtain block address
  x86/mce: Clarify comments regarding deferred error
  x86/mce/AMD: Add comments for easier understanding
