Message-Id: <1443073720-3940-1-git-send-email-ashok.raj@intel.com> Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2015 01:48:38 -0400 From: Ashok Raj <ashok.raj@...el.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Ashok Raj <ashok.raj@...el.com>, Boris Petkov <bp@...e.de>, linux-edac@...r.kernel.org, Tony Luck <tony.luck@...el.com> Subject: [Patch V1 1/3] x86, mce: MCE log size not enough for high core parts MCE_LOG_LEN appears to be short for high core count parts. Especially when handling fatal errors, we don't clear MCE banks. Socket level MC banks are visible to all CPUs that share banks. Assuming 18 core part, 2 threads per core 2 banks per thread and couple uncore MSRs. Rounding to 128 with some fudge to grow in future.
