F. APPENDIX P

Error Handling

This appendix describes processor behavior to a programmer writing operating system, firmware, and recovery code for SPARC64 V. Section headings differ from those of Appendix P of Commonality.

P.1 Error Classification

On SPARC64 V, an error is classified into one of the following four categories, depending on the degree to which it obstructs program execution:

■1. Fatal error

■2. Error state transition error

■3. Urgent error

■4. Restrainable error

The subsections below describe each error class.

P.1.1 Fatal Error

A fatal error is one of the following errors that damages the entire system.

a.Error breaking data integrity on the system (excluding the SDC)

All errors, except the SDC (system data corruption) error, that break cache coherency are in this category.

b.Invalid system control flow is detected and therefore validity of the subsequent system behavior cannot be guaranteed.
