Commit 7ea6c6c1
("Move cper.c from drivers/acpi/apei to
drivers/firmware/efi") results in CONFIG_EFI being enabled even
when the user doesn't want this. Since ACPI APEI used to build
fine without UEFI (and as far as I know also has no functional
depency on it), at least in that case using a reverse dependency
is wrong (and a straight one isn't needed).
Whether the same is true for ACPI_EXTLOG I don't know - if there
is a functional dependency, it should depend on EFI rather than
selecting it. It certainly has (currently) no build dependency.
Adjust Kconfig and build logic so that the bad dependency gets
avoided.

APEI allows to report errors (for example from the chipset)
|
|
to the operating system. This improves NMI handling
|
|
especially. In addition it supports error serialization and
|
|
error injection.

Generic Hardware Error Source provides a way to report
|
|
platform hardware errors (such as that from chipset). It
|
|
works in so called "Firmware First" mode, that is, hardware
|
|
errors are reported to firmware firstly, then reported to
|
|
Linux by firmware. This way, some non-standard hardware
|
|
error registers or non-standard hardware link can be checked
|
|
by firmware to produce more valuable hardware error
|
|
information for Linux.

ERST is a way provided by APEI to save and retrieve hardware

if you want to debugging and testing the ERST kernel support

and firmware implementation.
