Kernel outputting this, should I worry? - [Hardware Error]: PROCESSOR 0:406e3 TIME 1498209621 SOCKET 0 APIC 3 microcode 9e

I have dmesg -Hw running trying to troubleshoot other problem (my ssd ocasionally going in read-only mode) and noticed this that happens few times per day, should I worry

Solution 1:

Google search of "[Hardware Error]: PROCESSOR 0:406e3 TIME 1498209621 SOCKET 0 APIC 3 microcode 9e" gives the following:

Several things to try:

  • Install microcode. (askubuntu.com: installing microcode)

  • Check if the computer is overheating with lm-sensors (ubuntu.com: sensors howto)

  • bad irq settings in bios (hardware error cpu)

  • Someone mentioned bad power supply unit (psu) and machine check exception (mce) for hard drive in intel forum (linux machine check exception)

  • Overheating can cause that error (prime number calculation overheating)
