Thanks! Yeah its a good idea to add. I did not think about this before.
I will send this as a separate patchset after v2.

I think with this cxl cper trace event support and Ira's patchset which
traces
specific event record types via Get Event Record, we can start the userspace
handling probably in rasdaemon?

Right, I will keep it simple in v1 and get the comments about the
placement..

Thanks,
