EDAC: Linux-2.6.34-rc5 non correctable errors not reported on AMD64 Opteron
Hi Doug,
I am trying to test Linux-2.6.34-rc5 EDAC driver on AMD64 Opteron. I am able to inject single bit errors and get the edac driver report the correctable errors.
But when I inject 2-bit errors, I did not see any notification or kernel log, the system simply hangs.
This happens with or without edac_mc_panic_on_ue enabled. Please let me know if I am missing something.
Below are the details.
Thanks
Prasanna
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Build Linux-2.6.34-rc5 using x86_64_defconfig with following additional config options enabled:CONFIG_EDAC_DECODE_MCE=yCONFIG_EDAC_MM_EDAC=yCONFIG_EDAC_AMD64=mCONFIG_EDAC_AMD64_ERROR_INJECTION=yCONFIG_EDAC_E752X=mCONFIG_EDAC_I82975X=mCONFIG_EDAC_I3000=mCONFIG_EDAC_I3200=mCONFIG_EDAC_X38=mCONFIG_EDAC_I5400=mCONFIG_EDAC_I5000=mCONFIG_EDAC_I5100=m
2. insert the kernel module
#insmod amd64_edac_mod.ko
3. Inject errors
# echo 3 > /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_section # echo 7 > /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_word # echo 0x88 > /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_ecc_vector # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_read # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_write
4. Should hang the system in few minutes.
