Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: APEI: arm64: Ignore broken HPE moonshot APEI support
Message-id: <20180227002123.21608-1-ahs3@redhat.com>

O-Subject: [RHEL8 BZ1518076 PATCH] ACPI: APEI: arm64: Ignore broken HPE moonshot APEI support
Bugzilla: 1518076
RH-Acked-by: Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com>
RH-Acked-by: Jeremy McNicoll <jmcnicol@redhat.com>
Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1518076
Brew: https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/taskinfo?taskID=15417197
Tested: compile-only; several other patches are required for full booting
QE has tested limited boot (see comment#12 of BZ)
This is a re-post of a RHEL-ALT-7.5 patch specific to aarch64 moonshots
that we use in beaker. It is required for these machines to boot.

[acpi] APEI: arm64: Ignore broken HPE moonshot APEI support
From: Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com>
Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1344237
Brew: https://brewweb.engineering.redhat.com/brew/taskinfo?taskID=13768971
Tested: Booted on moonshot with patched 4.11.0-20 kernel
Upstream: RHEL-only
The aarch64 HP moonshot platforms we have in beaker and elsewhere have
a firmware bug which causes a spurious fatal memory error via APEI at
boot time. This platform is no longer supported and no further firmware
updates are expected. This is a downstream-only hack to avoid the problem
by bailing out of HEST table probing if we detect a moonshot HEST table.
