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