MACHINE CHECK ARCHITECTURE EXECUTION ENVIRONMENT FOR NON-MICROCODED PROCESSOR

摘要

A technology for implementing a method for a machine check architecture environment. A method of the disclosure includes obtaining an occurrence of an error. The occurrence of the error causes a non-microcoded processing device to enter an error monitoring state. The method further processes the error using a dedicated memory portion for the error monitoring state while the non-microcoded processing device is in the error monitoring state. The error monitoring state is dedicated to error processing. The method further determines information associated with the error. The information associated with the error is in a predefined format.
