1config ACPI_APEI
2 bool "ACPI Platform Error Interface (APEI)"
3 depends on X86
4 help
5 APEI allows to report errors (for example from the chipset)
6 to the operating system. This improves NMI handling
7 especially. In addition it supports error serialization and
8 error injection.

10config ACPI_APEI_GHES
11 tristate "APEI Generic Hardware Error Source"
12 depends on ACPI_APEI && X86
13 select ACPI_HED
14 help
15 Generic Hardware Error Source provides a way to report
16 platform hardware errors (such as that from chipset). It
17 works in so called "Firmware First" mode, that is, hardware
18 errors are reported to firmware firstly, then reported to
19 Linux by firmware. This way, some non-standard hardware
20 error registers or non-standard hardware link can be checked
21 by firmware to produce more valuable hardware error
22 information for Linux.

24config ACPI_APEI_EINJ
25 tristate "APEI Error INJection (EINJ)"
26 depends on ACPI_APEI && DEBUG_FS
27 help
28 EINJ provides a hardware error injection mechanism, it is
29 mainly used for debugging and testing the other parts of
30 APEI and some other RAS features.
