[PATCH V6 06/10] acpi: apei: panic OS with fatal error status block

Show all headers | View raw

From: "Jonathan (Zhixiong) Zhang" <zjzhang@codeaurora.org>

Even if an error status block's severity is fatal, the kernel does not
honor the severity level and panic.

With the firmware first model, the platform could inform the OS about a
fatal hardware error through the non-NMI GHES notification type. The OS
should panic when a hardware error record is received with this
severity.

Call panic() after CPER data in error status block is printed if
severity is fatal, before each error section is handled.
