      x86: Look for IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS support · 23016bf0
      Venkatesh Pallipadi 提交于
      The new IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS MSR allows system software to give
      hardware a hint whether OS policy favors more power saving,
      or more performance.  This allows the OS to have some influence
      on internal hardware power/performance tradeoffs where the OS
      has previously had no influence.
      
      The support for this feature is indicated by CPUID.06H.ECX.bit3,
      as documented in the Intel Architectures Software Developer's Manual.
      
      This patch discovers support of this feature and displays it
      as "epb" in /proc/cpuinfo.

      ACPI, APEI, Generic Hardware Error Source memory error support · d334a491
      Huang Ying 提交于
      Generic Hardware Error Source provides a way to report platform
      hardware errors (such as that from chipset). It works in so called
      "Firmware First" mode, that is, hardware errors are reported to
      firmware firstly, then reported to Linux by firmware. This way, some
      non-standard hardware error registers or non-standard hardware link
      can be checked by firmware to produce more valuable hardware error
      information for Linux.
      
      Now, only SCI notification type and memory errors are supported. More
      notification type and hardware error type will be added later. These
      memory errors are reported to user space through /dev/mcelog via
      faking a corrected Machine Check, so that the error memory page can be
      offlined by /sbin/mcelog if the error count for one page is beyond the
      threshold.
      
      On some machines, Machine Check can not report physical address for
      some corrected memory errors, but GHES can do that. So this simplified
      GHES is implemented firstly.
