Summary: New port: sysutils/mcelog
Product: Ports & Packages Reporter: Jeremy Chadwick <freebsd>

Description Jeremy Chadwick 2011-10-08 12:10:05 UTC 
	For quite some time FreeBSD has lacked an "official" (even if 3rd-party!)
	way to decode hardware MCEs emitted by Machine Check Architecture.  Folks
	like John Baldwin and myself have had to assist on mailing lists to decode
	the MCEs reported.  Example:

	http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2011-October/064082.html

	John has provided patches to allow building Linux's mcelog(8) utility
	on FreeBSD for quite some time:

	http://people.freebsd.org/~jhb/mcelog/
	P4: //depot/projects/mcelog/

	To make it easier for users to benefit from this, I put together a
	port (sysutils/mcelog) using John's patches.  Important is the fact that
	fact that his patches will be manually incorporated into files/, rather
	than fetched from his site.  This is to guarantee the port will always
	build/work even if John updates his patches on his site.

	I will be the maintainer of this port, and if John changes his patches,
	he will communicate with me privately, and I will thus submit PRs to
	update this port.

	NOTE #1: I have been in private contact with John and he has given his
	approval for this port which include a slightly modified version of
	his patch.  Quote: "Please feel free to go forward with this."

	NOTE #2: I have not tested this port with portlint.

Fix: 

Port directory and its contents available here:	

	http://jdc.parodius.com/freebsd/mcelog.tar.gz

	MD5 (mcelog.tar.gz) = 54b6cca752d258b03314484f42cbd1fa
	SHA1 (mcelog.tar.gz) = 3b785ef1e5ae762643163ebbcada2f4d61cc2285

	Let me know if a uuencoded version is needed here in the PR instead.

  Log:
  New port: sysutils/mcelog
  
  mcelog processes machine checks (in particular memory and CPU
  hardware errors) on modern x86-based unix systems and
  produces human-readable output.
  
  FreeBSD conversion patches were originally written by John
  Baldwin <jhb@freebsd.org> and later incorporated into this
  port.
