Subject: could you please help test kernel for bug #1698448

Jeff,

I have a kernel in PPA: https://launchpad.net/~centriq-
team/+archive/ubuntu/lp1698448/ that has the patch for bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1698448. PPA
description has instructions for installing this kernel.

Tyler suggests that we will need to inject and error prior to kernel
boot to reproduce this issue ( I guess pulling a pcie card after fw
initialization and before kernel boot might do it? ). I would need to
have physical access to the system to do that kind of testing. The
QDF2400 systems we have are in a data center which limits my ability to
test this patch. Could someone from your team please test the patch
using the test kernel in the PPA and post comments in the Ubuntu bug
referenced above? FYI June 23rd is the deadline for submitting patches
for the current SRU cycle.

Thanks a ton!
Manoj Iyer

Title:
  [SRU][Zesty] acpi: apei: check for pending errors when probing GHES
  entries

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  In addition to the RAS patches for which SRU were submitted under bug 
https://launchpad.net/bugs/1696570. We also require the following patch:
  f561618d9b80 acpi: apei: check for pending errors when probing GHES entries

  Without this patch pending RAS error at boot may not be handled
  correctly on the QDF2400 platforms, and could cause platform to
  reboot, or prevent future RAS issues from being reported.

  [Test]
  Run mce-tests suite. Inject an error before the kernel boots to reproduce the 
issue.

  [Fix]
  Fix is available in the linux ARM64 git repo maintained by Will Deacon:
  f561618d9b80 acpi: apei: check for pending errors when probing GHES entries. 
This patch needs to be applied on top of the RAS patches that were already 
submitted for SRU

  [Regression Potential]
  Small fix to handle pending errors right away. Low risk of regression.
