'''EDAC''' is when you see something like this in your logs:
<pre>
EDAC k8 MC0: GART TLB errorr: transaction type(generic), cache level(generic)
EDAC k8 MC0: extended error code: GART error
</pre>
== What does that mean? ==
EDAC (Error Detection and Correction) subsystem report errors that occur within
the computer system and were detected (and corrected if it was possible) by the
hardware. The system with corrected errors can continue to operate, but with
less safety.
== What to do? ==
Harvesting those events and reporting them can be a predictor of future
uncorrectable errors. Preventive maintenance and proactive part replacement of
faulty hardware can reduce the likelihood of the dreaded uncorrectable errors
and system 'panics'.
