Description: x86-64 Machine Check Exceptions collector and decoder
Starting with version 2.6.4, the Linux kernel for x86-64 no longer decodes
and logs recoverable Machine Check Exception events to the kernel log on
its own.
.
Instead, the MCE data is kept in a buffer which can be read from userspace
via the /dev/mcelog device node.
.
You need this tool to collect and decode those events; it will log the decoded
MCE events into /var/log/mcelog. Currently, mcelog can decode MCE from AMD K8
and Intel P4 (including Xeon) processors.
