INTERPRETING MACHINE-CHECK ERROR CODES

16.7.2   Integrated Memory Controller Machine Check Errors

MC error codes associated with integrated memory controllers are reported in the MSRs IA32_MC9_STATUS-
IA32_MC10_STATUS. The supported error codes follow the architectural MCACOD definition type 1MMMCCCC (see 
Chapter 15, “Machine-Check Architecture,”). 
MSR_ERROR_CONTROL.[bit 1] can enable additional information logging of the IMC. The additional error informa-
tion logged by the IMC is stored in IA32_MCi_STATUS and IA32_MCi_MISC; (i = 9-10).

Table 16-25.  Intel IMC MC Error Codes for IA32_MCi_STATUS (i= 9-10)

4Bh - MC_PP1_BOOT_VID_TIMEOUT. Timeout setting boot VID for DRAM 0.
4Fh - MC_SVID_COMMAND_ERROR.
52h - MC_FIVR_CATAS_OVERVOL_FAULT.
53h - MC_FIVR_CATAS_OVERCUR_FAULT.
57h - MC_SVID_PKGC_REQUEST_FAILED
58h - MC_SVID_IMON_REQUEST_FAILED
59h - MC_SVID_ALERT_REQUEST_FAILED
62h - MC_INVALID_PKGS_RSP_QPI
64h - MC_INVALID_PKG_STATE_CONFIG
67h - MC_HA_IMC_RW_BLOCK_ACK_TIMEOUT
6Ah - MC_MSGCH_PMREQ_CMP_TIMEOUT
72h - MC_WATCHDG_TIMEOUT_PKGS_MASTER
81h - MC_RECOVERABLE_DIE_THERMAL_TOO_HOT
