APEI ERST firmware interface and implementation has no multiple users in mind. For example, if there is four records in storage with ID: 1, 2, 3 and 4, if two ERST readers enumerate the records via GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID as follow, reader 1 reader 2 1 2 3 4 -1 -1 where -1 signals there is no more record ID. Reader 1 has no chance to check record 2 and 4, while reader 2 has no chance to check record 1 and 3. And any other GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID will return -1, that is, other readers will has no chance to check any record even they are not cleared by anyone. This makes raw GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID not suitable for used by multiple users. To solve the issue, an in-memory ERST record ID cache is designed and implemented. When enumerating record ID, the ID returned by GET_NEXT_RECORD_ID is added into cache in addition to be returned to caller. So other readers can check the cache to get all record ID available.
