Abstract
In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there is provided systems and methods for detecting and reporting errors in a machine check environment. A processing device includes an error monitoring module, which detects an error corresponding to data associated with execution of an instruction by the processing device and determines whether the error occurs on portion of the data that affects a result of the instruction. The processing device further enables error detection when it is determined that the error occurs on the portion of the data that affects the result of the execution of the instruction.
