Well, yeah. My case is also related to uncorrected errors and ECC memory. I want to improve the handler that is invoked for uncorrectable ECC errors. Once this sort of error occurs, it gives the address where the error happened. And if we can identify the processes involved with that memory, the handler can just kill them rather than panicking the kernel. I don't really know how the above in-tree code will be helpful in my case. Can you please explain it a little to me? -- Thanks and regards, Sandeep K Chaudhary. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
