Prior to v8.2, SError is an uncontainable fatal exception. The v8.2 RAS extensions use SError to notify software about RAS errors, these can be contained by the Error Syncronization Barrier. An ACPI system with firmware-first may use SError as its 'SEI' notification. Future patches may add code to 'claim' this SError as a notification. Other systems can distinguish these RAS errors from the SError ESR and use the AET bits and additional data from RAS-Error registers to handle the error. Future patches may add this kernel-first handling. Without support for either of these we will panic(), even if we received a corrected error. Add code to decode the severity of RAS errors. We can safely ignore contained errors where the CPU can continue to make progress. For all other errors we continue to panic().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
