1config ACPI_APEI 2 bool "ACPI Platform Error Interface (APEI)" 3 depends on X86 4 help 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 8 error injection. 9 10config ACPI_APEI_GHES 11 tristate "APEI Generic Hardware Error Source" 12 depends on ACPI_APEI && X86 13 select ACPI_HED 14 help 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. 23 24config ACPI_APEI_EINJ 25 tristate "APEI Error INJection (EINJ)" 26 depends on ACPI_APEI && DEBUG_FS 27 help 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. 31 32config ACPI_APEI_ERST_DEBUG 33 tristate "APEI Error Record Serialization Table (ERST) Debug Support" 34 depends on ACPI_APEI 35 help 36 ERST is a way provided by APEI to save and retrieve hardware 37 error infomation to and from a persistent store. Enable this 38 if you want to debugging and testing the ERST kernel support 39 and firmware implementation. 40
