Description

Reports x86-64 machine check events from the kernel, helping administrators diagnose hardware errors such as CPU, memory, bus, or firmware-related faults. It is useful when a system shows unexplained crashes, corrected hardware errors, or reliability warnings.

This is a low-level diagnostic tool for terminal use and may require system permissions or kernel support. The messages can be technical; hardware maintenance decisions should be based on the full system context.
