Issues:
Regression in the ras_mc_create_table() if some of the cpus are offline
at the system start when run the rasdaemon. This issue is
reproducible in ras_mc_create_table() with decode and record
non-standard events and reproducible sometimes with
ras_mc_create_table() for the standard events.
Also in the multi thread way, there is memory leak in ras_mc_event_opendb()
as struct sqlite3_priv *priv and sqlite3 *db allocated/initialized per
thread, but stored in the common struct ras_events ras in pthread data,
which is shared across the threads. 

Reason:
when the system start with some of the cpus are offline and then run
the rasdaemon, read_ras_event_all_cpus() exit with error and switch to
the multi thread way. However read() in read_ras_event() return error in
threads for each of the offline CPUs and does clean up including calling
ras_mc_event_closedb().
Since the 'struct ras_events ras' passed in the pthread_data to each of the
threads is common, struct sqlite3_priv *priv and sqlite3 *db allocated/
initialized per thread and stored in the common 'struct ras_events ras',
are getting overwritten in each ras_mc_event_opendb()(which called from
pthread per cpu), result memory leak. Also when ras_mc_event_closedb()
is called in the above error case from the threads corresponding to the
offline cpus, close the sqlite3 *db and free sqlite3_priv *priv stored
in the common 'struct ras_events ras', result regression when accessing
priv->db in the ras_mc_create_table() from another context later.

Proposed solution:
In ras_mc_event_opendb(), allocate struct sqlite3_priv *priv,
init sqlite3 *db and create tables common for the threads with shared
'struct ras_events ras' based on a reference count and free them in the
same way.
Also protect critical code ras_mc_event_opendb() and ras_mc_event_closedb()
using mutex in the multi thread case from any regression caused by the
thread pre-emption.

Could you please submit rasdaemon patches via github pull requests?

It is currently easier to me to pick patches from there. You can still
send then to the ML in case you want others to take a look and review
them, but I'll be applying them only after the PR at rasdaemon.

Regards,
Mauro
