Got it, Thank you.
But have a question about below codes:
if (mcgstatus & MCG_STATUS_RIPV) {
mce_wrmsrl(MSR_IA32_MCG_STATUS, 0);
return true;
}
These seems require all #MC exception errors set MCG_STATUS_RIPV = 1
in order to skip synchronize which "return true;" actually does for this.
As Intel SDM show, "Recoverable-not-continuable SRAR Type" errors may
set MCG_STATUS_RIPV = 0, PCC = 0. When these #MC errors broadcast
to offline CPU, may cause kernel panic with synchronize timeout (offline
CPU can't skip synchronize in this case).
Could "return true;" outside the if-case?
if (mcgstatus & MCG_STATUS_RIPV) {
mce_wrmsrl(MSR_IA32_MCG_STATUS, 0);
}
return true;
Sincerely
