Re: [PATCH] Re: [Patch] MCE,APEI: Don't enable CMCI when Firmware First mode is set in

[Naveen N. Rao]

The Corrected Machine Check structure (CMC) in HEST has a flag which can be
set by the firmware to indicate to the OS that it prefers to process the
corrected error events first. In this scenario, the OS is expected to not
monitor for corrected errors (through CMCI/polling). Instead, the firmware
notifies the OS on corrected error events through GHES.

Linux already has support for GHES. This patch adds support for parsing CMC
structure and to disable CMCI/polling if the firmware first flag is set.

Further, the list of machine check bank structures at the end of CMC is used
to determine which MCA banks function in FF mode, so that we continue to
monitor error events on the other banks.
