I tend to use mcelog to get more detailed results. Unfortunately this is missing the first line which contains the bank number and status register, so I can't provide any extra details. I really should make a port of mcelog, but the patches I have to it aren't a complete port. > My questions are: > > 1. Did I interpret the message correctly (correctable error on my L3 cache)?

Given that it is correctable it probably isn't an issue. It was not reported in earlier releases, so there is a chance that this could have been happening previously. -- John Baldwin _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
