+# Example config file for mcelog
+# mcelog is the user space backend that decodes and process machine check events
+# (cpu hardware errors) reported by the CPU to the kernel
+#
+
+# general format
+#optionname = value
+# white space is not allowed in value currently, except at the end where it is dropped
+#
+
+# In general all command line options that are not commands work here.
+# See man mcelog or mcelog --help for a list.
+# e.g. to enable the --no-syslog option use
+#no-syslog = yes   (or no to disable)
+# when the option has a argument
+#logfile = /tmp/logfile
+# below are the options which are not command line options.
+
+# Set CPU type for which mcelog decodes events:
+#cpu = type
+# For valid values for type please see mcelog --help.
+# If this value is set incorrectly the decoded output will be likely incorrect.
+# By default when this parameter is not set mcelog uses the CPU it is running on
+# on very new kernels the mcelog events reported by the kernel also carry
+# the CPU type which is used too when available and not overriden.
+
+# Enable daemon mode:
+#daemon = yes
+# By default mcelog just processes the currently pending events and exits.
+# In daemon mode it will keep running as a daemon in the background and poll
+# the kernel for events and then decode them.

+# unreliable, not needed on new kernels which report the event time
+# directly. A lot of systems don't have a linear time stamp clock
+# and the output is wrong then.
+# Normally mcelog tries to figure out if it the TSC is reliable
+# and only uses the current frequency then.
+# Setting a frequency forces timestamp decoding.
+# This setting is obsolete with modern kernels which report the time
+# directly.
