Pull EDAC internal API changes from Mauro Carvalho Chehab: "This changeset is the first part of a series of patches that fixes the EDAC sybsystem. On this set, it changes the Kernel EDAC API in order to properly represent the Intel i3/i5/i7, Xeon 3xxx/5xxx/7xxx, and Intel E5-xxxx memory controllers. The EDAC core used to assume that: - the DRAM chip select pin is directly accessed by the memory controller - when multiple channels are used, they're all filled with the same type of memory. None of the above premises is true on Intel memory controllers since 2002, when RAMBUS and FB-DIMMs were introduced, and Advanced Memory Buffer or by some similar technologies hides the direct access to the DRAM pins. So, the existing drivers for those chipsets had to lie to the EDAC core, in general telling that just one channel is filled. That produces some hard to understand error messages like: EDAC MC0: CE row 3, channel 0, label "DIMM1": 1 Unknown error(s): memory read error on FATAL area : cpu=0 Err=0008:00c2 (ch=2), addr = 0xad1f73480 => socket=0, Channel=0(mask=2), rank=1 The location information there (row3 channel 0) is completely bogus: it has no physical meaning, and are just some random values that the driver uses to talk with the EDAC core. The error actually happened at CPU socket 0, channel 0, slot 1, but this is not reported anywhere, as the EDAC core doesn't know anything about the memory layout. So, only advanced users that know how the EDAC driver works and that tests their systems to see how DIMMs are mapped can actually benefit for such error logs. This patch series fixes the error report logic, in order to allow the EDAC to expose the memory architecture used by them to the EDAC core. So, as the EDAC core now understands how the memory is organized, it can provide an useful report: EDAC MC0: CE memory read error on DIMM1 (channel:0 slot:1 page:0x364b1b offset:0x600 grain:32 syndrome:0x0 - count:1 area:DRAM err_code:0001:0090 socket:0 channel_mask:1 rank:4) The location of the DIMM where the error happened is reported by "MC0" (cpu socket #0), at "channel:0 slot:1" location, and matches the physical location of the DIMM. There are two remaining issues not covered by this patch series: - The EDAC sysfs API will still report bogus values. So, userspace tools like edac-utils will still use the bogus data; - Add a new tracepoint-based way to get the binary information about the errors. Those are on a second series of patches (also at -next), but will probably miss the train for 3.5, due to the slow review process."
