Hi Steve,

Thanks for pointing the link, I have not seen that driver before; I was mainly looking at driver/edac/xgene_edac.c and some other arm edac drivers. My first attempt was to do AMD specific edac driver to log correctable L1/L2 error but based on feedback I worked on v2 generic driver which now looks very similar to your driver, are you planning to upstream your driver ? I can work with you to verify it on my current hardware setup. It seems your driver also handles single-bit and double-bit error which I have no way to test in my current hardware setup. On Seattle platform most of error handling is done through firmware APEI except correctable L1/L2. Let me know your thoughts.
