okay bestie, so this one is from the Kernel API Manual β yes we're reading kernel docs now, we contain multitudes π. It's a function called amd76x_process_error_info, and honestly? the name kinda eats. It's the error check girlie. π₯
β¨ NAME β¨

πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int amd76x_process_error_info (struct mem_ctl_info *mci , struct
amd76x_error_info *info , int handle_errors );
that's the whole signature, no cap. three args, returns an int, periodt. β¨
π ARGUMENTS π
mciβ the memory controller, obvi. it's astruct mem_ctl_info *and it's the main character here πinfoβ the information we fetched earlier from the chip, lowkey a lil souvenir from the hardware π«Άhandle_errorsβ the vibe check flag:1if we should actually do recovery,0if we're just looking π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so what does she do? she processes the chip state and decides whether an error has occurred. that's it, that's the job. π
and a return of 1 means an error happened β not me being dramatic, that's literally the contract π
also, if handle_errors is true, she attempts to handle and clean up after the error. like a good hostess who cleans up after the party. π§Ήβ¨
fr fr: return1= error detected. and recovery only kicks in whenhandle_errorsis true. don't forget it π
