I've some trouble decoding these in a convincing way. mcelog --core2
--ascii reports "MCG status:RIPV MCIP" for 0000000000000005 and "MCG
status:MCIP" for 0000000000000004.

I've collected several Bank # output lines:

#  text
---------------------------
26 Bank 0: b200004000000800
10 Bank 5: b200121014040400
 8 Bank 5: b200121020080400
 4 Bank 5: b200221010040400
 4 Bank 5: b200221024080400

but mcelog expects lines of the format

        CPU %u: Machine Check Exception: %16Lx Bank %d: %016Lx

(they got broken by netconsole) so I made these up:

CPU 1: Machine Check Exception: 0000000000000004 Bank 0: b200004000000800
CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 0000000000000005 Bank 5: b200121014040400
CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 0000000000000005 Bank 5: b200121020080400
CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 0000000000000005 Bank 5: b200221010040400
CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 0000000000000005 Bank 5: b200221024080400

result:

The problem also exists on an entirely different Xeon system with 4 cores:

cpu family      : 6
model           : 15
model name      : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           X3210  @ 2.13GHz
stepping        : 11
