[resend as plain text - sorry for the earlier HTML]

An internal team is seeing tests that worked on v6.0 fail on v6.3. The problem is that
rasdaemon isn’t waking up to process the “mce_record” trace events.

Manually checking for them works:

root@R-4251:/sys/kernel/debug/tracing>systemctl stop rasdaemon
root@R-4251:/sys/kernel/debug/tracing>
root@R-4251:/sys/kernel/debug/tracing>
root@R-4251:/sys/kernel/debug/tracing>echo 1 > events/mce/mce_record/enable
root@R-4251:/sys/kernel/debug/tracing>
root@R-4251:/sys/kernel/debug/tracing>cat trace_pipe
           <...>-235     [000] .....   596.892583: mce_record: CPU: 0, MCGc/s: f000c15/0, MC13: 8c00004200800090, IPID: 0000000000000000, ADDR/MISC/SYND: 0000000123450000/08000a80c2982086/0000000000000000, RIP: 00:<0000000000000000>, TSC: 14120b051a1, PROCESSOR: 0:c06f1, TIME: 1689802780, SOCKET: 0, APIC: 0
     kworker/0:2-235     [000] .....   597.204343: mce_record: CPU: 0, MCGc/s: f000c15/0, MC255: 9c0000000000009f, IPID: 0000000000000000, ADDR/MISC/SYND: 0000000123450000/000000000000008c/0000000000000000, RIP: 00:<0000000000000000>, TSC: 0, PROCESSOR: 0:c06f1, TIME: 1689802781, SOCKET: 0, APIC: 0

So their tests are injecting errors, and the trace event is firing.

Is there some updated version of rasdaemon needed?

Some kernel CONFIG option problem?
