As far as I can tell, this is still outstanding - I have a newer server that does not yet have any access to ECC counters, status or alerts, under Debian 8.
IIRC, I had verified that with a newer kernel, it “just worked” once I loaded the appropriate EDAC modules… I think I used RHEL6 with an updated kernel to verify that, not sure now. -- -Adam Thompson athom...@athompso.net From: Adam D.

Assuming that this request is still current and wasn't just pre-release, this sounds like something I'd be happy to defer to your judgement on.
