This improves NMI handling 7a643ce20SHuang Ying especially. In addition it supports error serialization and 8a643ce20SHuang Ying error injection. 9e4021345SHuang Ying 10d334a491SHuang Yingconfig ACPI_APEI_GHES 11d334a491SHuang Ying tristate "APEI Generic Hardware Error Source" 12d334a491SHuang Ying depends on ACPI_APEI && X86 13d334a491SHuang Ying select ACPI_HED 14d334a491SHuang Ying help 15d334a491SHuang Ying Generic Hardware Error Source provides a way to report 16d334a491SHuang Ying platform hardware errors (such as that from chipset). It 17d334a491SHuang Ying works in so called "Firmware First" mode, that is, hardware 18d334a491SHuang Ying errors are reported to firmware firstly, then reported to 19d334a491SHuang Ying Linux by firmware. This way, some non-standard hardware 20d334a491SHuang Ying error registers or non-standard hardware link can be checked 21d334a491SHuang Ying by firmware to produce more valuable hardware error 22d334a491SHuang Ying information for Linux. 23d334a491SHuang Ying 24e4021345SHuang Yingconfig ACPI_APEI_EINJ 25e4021345SHuang Ying tristate "APEI Error INJection (EINJ)" 26e4021345SHuang Ying depends on ACPI_APEI && DEBUG_FS 27e4021345SHuang Ying help 28e4021345SHuang Ying EINJ provides a hardware error injection mechanism, it is 29e4021345SHuang Ying mainly used for debugging and testing the other parts of 30e4021345SHuang Ying APEI and some other RAS features. 31*2ff729d5SHuang Ying 32*2ff729d5SHuang Yingconfig ACPI_APEI_ERST_DEBUG 33*2ff729d5SHuang Ying tristate "APEI Error Record Serialization Table (ERST) Debug Support" 34*2ff729d5SHuang Ying depends on ACPI_APEI 35*2ff729d5SHuang Ying help 36*2ff729d5SHuang Ying ERST is a way provided by APEI to save and retrieve hardware 37*2ff729d5SHuang Ying error infomation to and from a persistent store. Enable this 38*2ff729d5SHuang Ying if you want to debugging and testing the ERST kernel support 39*2ff729d5SHuang Ying and firmware implementation. 40
