2 bool "ACPI Platform Error Interface (APEI)"
5 APEI allows to report errors (for example from the chipset)
6 to the operating system. This improves NMI handling
7 especially. In addition it supports error serialization and
11 tristate "APEI Generic Hardware Error Source"
12 depends on ACPI_APEI && X86
15 Generic Hardware Error Source provides a way to report
16 platform hardware errors (such as that from chipset). It
17 works in so called "Firmware First" mode, that is, hardware
18 errors are reported to firmware firstly, then reported to
19 Linux by firmware. This way, some non-standard hardware
20 error registers or non-standard hardware link can be checked
21 by firmware to produce more valuable hardware error
22 information for Linux.
25 tristate "APEI Error INJection (EINJ)"
26 depends on ACPI_APEI && DEBUG_FS
28 EINJ provides a hardware error injection mechanism, it is
29 mainly used for debugging and testing the other parts of
30 APEI and some other RAS features.
32 config ACPI_APEI_ERST_DEBUG
33 tristate "APEI Error Record Serialization Table (ERST) Debug Support"
36 ERST is a way provided by APEI to save and retrieve hardware
37 error information to and from a persistent store. Enable this
38 if you want to debugging and testing the ERST kernel support
39 and firmware implementation.
