283 | In Linux 2.6.31+ the i386 kernel needs to run the mcelog utility | ||
284 | as a regular cronjob similar to the x86-64 kernel to process and log | ||
285 | machine check events when CONFIG_X86_NEW_MCE is enabled. Machine check | ||
286 | events are errors reported by the CPU. Processing them is strongly encouraged. | ||
287 | All x86-64 kernels since 2.6.4 require the mcelog utility to | ||
288 | process machine checks. | ||
