Marius Strobl a0d9385faa Intel desktop Haswell CPUs may report benign corrected parity errors (see
HSD131 erratum in [1]) at a considerable rate. So filter these (default),
unless logging is enabled. Unfortunately, there really is no better way to
reasonably implement suppressing these errors than to just skipping them
in mca_log(). Given that they are reported for bank 0, they'd need to be
masked in MSR_MC0_CTL. However, P6 family processors require that register
to be set to either all 0s or all 1s, disabling way more than the one error
in question when using all 0s there. Alternatively, it could be masked for
the corresponding CMCI, but that still wouldn't keep the periodic scanner
from detecting these spurious errors. Apart from that, register contents of
MSR_MC0_CTL{,2} don't seem to be publicly documented, neither in the Intel
Architectures Developer's Manual nor in the Haswell datasheets.

Note that while HSD131 actually is only about C0-stepping as of revision
014 of the Intel desktop 4th generation processor family specification
update, these corrected errors also have been observed with D0-stepping
aka "Haswell Refresh".

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The ``world''
target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not
changed from the currently running version.  See:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
