Since when I get a BUG: Unable to handle paging request the system seems to get stuck and on 100% CPU after a while the CPU overheats I assumed those Machine Check Exceptions were due to the overheating caused by the 100% CPU usage caused by the errors. If it is due to that, the CPU throttles to prevent further overheating so it shouldn't affect anything. -- Pedro -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
