AH120 IA32_MC1_STATUS MSR Bit[60] Does Not Reflect Machine Check
Error Reporting Enable Correctly
Problem: IA32_MC1_STATUS MSR (405H) bit[60] (EN- Error Enabled) is supposed to indicate
whether the enable bit in the IA32_MC1_CTL MSR (404H) was set at the time of the
last update to the IA32_MC1_STATUS MSR. Due to this erratum, IA32_MC1_STATUS
MSR bit[60] instead reports the current value of the IA32_MC1_CTL MSR enable bit.
Implication: IA32_MC1_STATUS MSR bit [60] may not reflect the correct state of the enable bit in
the IA32_MC1_CTL MSR at the time of the last update.
Workaround: None identified.
Status: For the steppings affected, see the Summary Table of Changes.
