I am using a cricket bat to beat BIOS teams that implement eMCA to make sure they get the labels in SMBIOS right. :-) It's a non-trivial implementation effort to get all the decoding done for the eMCA log. It's typically a simple string change to fix the SMBIOS table ... there has been some resistance - but so far I have been victorious. Wish me luck as I'm about to engage with another team. -Tony -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
