mainlining shenanigans

Basically, there are full memory mirroring and address range partial memory mirroring (supported by Haswell EX and Broadwell EX) modes. a) In full memory mirroring, the memory behind each memory controller is mirrored, i.e. the memory is split into two identical mirrors (primary and secondary), half of the memory is reserved for redundancy. b) In address range partial memory mirroring, the memory size (range) of primary and secondary behind each memory controller can be user defined by the TAD0 register. The rest of memory ranges defined by TAD1/TAD2/... in that memory controller are non-mirrored. For more detail on memory mirroring, see the following link written by Tony Luck: https://01.org/lkp/blogs/tonyluck/2016/address-range-partial-memory-mirroring-linux Currently the sb_edac driver only supports address decoding in full memory mirroring and non-mirroring modes. In address range partial memory mirroring mode, it may fail to decode an address that falls in a non-mirroring area (the following was one of this kind of failed logs). mce: Uncorrected hardware memory error in user-access at 566d53a400 Memory failure: 0x566d53a: Killing einj_mem_uc:4647 due to hardware memory corruption Memory failure: 0x566d53a: recovery action for dirty LRU page: Recovered mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged EDAC sbridge MC1: HANDLING MCE MEMORY ERROR EDAC sbridge MC1: CPU 48: Machine Check Event: 0 Bank 7: ec00000000010090 EDAC sbridge MC1: TSC 4b914aa5a99dab EDAC sbridge MC1: ADDR 566d53a400 EDAC sbridge MC1: MISC 1443a0c86 EDAC sbridge MC1: PROCESSOR 0:406f1 TIME 1499712764 SOCKET 2 APIC 80 EDAC MC1: 0 UE Can't discover the memory rank for ch addr 0x7fb54e900 on any memory ( page:0x0 offset:0x0 grain:32) mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged Therefore, classify memory mirroring modes and make the address decoding in address range partial memory mode correct.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
