The current code extracts the physical address for UE errors and then hooks it up into memory failure infrastructure. On successful extraction of physical address it wrongly sets "handled = 1" which means this UE error has been recovered. Since MCE handler gets return value as handled = 1, it assumes that error has been recovered and goes back to same NIP. This causes MCE interrupt again and again in a loop leading to hard lockup. Also, initialize phys_addr to ULONG_MAX so that we don't end up queuing undesired page to hwpoison. Without this patch we see: Severe Machine check interrupt [Recovered] NIP: [000000001002588c] PID: 7109 Comm: find Initiator: CPU Error type: UE [Load/Store] Effective address: 00007fffd2755940 Physical address: 000020181a080000 ...

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ 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.
