When it was pushed into 2.6.16 for the +first time, it was renamed to 'EDAC'. + +The bluesmoke project at sourceforge.net is now utilized as a 'staging area' +for EDAC development, before it is sent upstream to kernel.org + +At the bluesmoke/EDAC project site is a series of quilt patches against +recent kernels, stored in a SVN repository. For easier downloading, there +is also a tarball snapshot available. + +============================================================================ +EDAC PURPOSE + +The 'edac' kernel module goal is to detect and report errors that occur +within the computer system running under linux. + +MEMORY + +In the initial release, memory Correctable Errors (CE) and Uncorrectable +Errors (UE) are the primary errors being harvested. These types of errors +are harvested by the 'edac_mc' class of device. + +Detecting CE events, then harvesting those events and reporting them, +CAN be a predictor of future UE events. With CE events, the system can +continue to operate, but with less safety. Preventive maintenance and +proactive part replacement of memory DIMMs exhibiting CEs can reduce +the likelihood of the dreaded UE events and system 'panics'. + +NON-MEMORY + +A new feature for EDAC, the edac_device class of device, was added in +the 2.6.23 version of the kernel. + +This new device type allows for non-memory type of ECC hardware detectors +to have their states harvested and presented to userspace via the sysfs +interface. + +Some architectures have ECC detectors for L1, L2 and L3 caches, along with DMA +engines, fabric switches, main data path switches, interconnections, +and various other hardware data paths. If the hardware reports it, then +a edac_device device probably can be constructed to harvest and present +that to userspace. + + +PCI BUS SCANNING + +In addition, PCI Bus Parity and SERR Errors are scanned for on PCI devices +in order to determine if errors are occurring on data transfers. + +The presence of PCI Parity errors must be examined with a grain of salt. +There are several add-in adapters that do NOT follow the PCI specification +with regards to Parity generation and reporting. The specification says +the vendor should tie the parity status bits to 0 if they do not intend +to generate parity. Some vendors do not do this, and thus the parity bit +can "float" giving false positives. + +In the kernel there is a PCI device attribute located in sysfs that is +checked by the EDAC PCI scanning code. If that attribute is set, +PCI parity/error scanning is skipped for that device. The attribute +is: + + broken_parity_status + +as is located in /sys/devices/pci/0000:XX:YY.Z directories for +PCI devices. + +FUTURE HARDWARE SCANNING + +EDAC will have future error detectors that will be integrated with +EDAC or added to it, in the following list: + + MCE Machine Check Exception + MCA Machine Check Architecture + NMI NMI notification of ECC errors + MSRs Machine Specific Register error cases + and other mechanisms. + +These errors are usually bus errors, ECC errors, thermal throttling +and the like. + + +============================================================================ +EDAC VERSIONING + +EDAC is composed of a "core" module (edac_core.ko) and several Memory +Controller (MC) driver modules. On a given system, the CORE +is loaded and one MC driver will be loaded. Both the CORE and +the MC driver (or edac_device driver) have individual versions that reflect +current release level of their respective modules. + +Thus, to "report" on what version a system is running, one must report both +the CORE's and the MC driver's versions. + + +LOADING + +If 'edac' was statically linked with the kernel then no loading is +necessary. If 'edac' was built as modules then simply modprobe the +'edac' pieces that you need. You should be able to modprobe +hardware-specific modules and have the dependencies load the necessary core +modules. + +Example: + +$> modprobe amd76x_edac + +loads both the amd76x_edac.ko memory controller module and the edac_mc.ko +core module. + + +============================================================================ +EDAC sysfs INTERFACE + +EDAC presents a 'sysfs' interface for control, reporting and attribute +reporting purposes. + +EDAC lives in the /sys/devices/system/edac directory. + +Within this directory there currently reside 2 'edac' components: + + mc memory controller(s) system + pci PCI control and status system + + +============================================================================ +Memory Controller (mc) Model + +First a background on the memory controller's model abstracted in EDAC. +Each 'mc' device controls a set of DIMM memory modules. These modules are +laid out in a Chip-Select Row (csrowX) and Channel table (chX). There can +be multiple csrows and multiple channels. + +Memory controllers allow for several csrows, with 8 csrows being a typical value. +Yet, the actual number of csrows depends on the electrical "loading" +of a given motherboard, memory controller and DIMM characteristics. + +Dual channels allows for 128 bit data transfers to the CPU from memory. +Some newer chipsets allow for more than 2 channels, like Fully Buffered DIMMs +(FB-DIMMs). The following example will assume 2 channels: + + + Channel 0 Channel 1 + =================================== + csrow0 | DIMM_A0 | DIMM_B0 | + csrow1 | DIMM_A0 | DIMM_B0 | + =================================== + + =================================== + csrow2 | DIMM_A1 | DIMM_B1 | + csrow3 | DIMM_A1 | DIMM_B1 | + =================================== + +In the above example table there are 4 physical slots on the motherboard +for memory DIMMs: + + DIMM_A0 + DIMM_B0 + DIMM_A1 + DIMM_B1 + +Labels for these slots are usually silk screened on the motherboard. Slots +labeled 'A' are channel 0 in this example. Slots labeled 'B' +are channel 1. Notice that there are two csrows possible on a +physical DIMM. These csrows are allocated their csrow assignment +based on the slot into which the memory DIMM is placed. Thus, when 1 DIMM +is placed in each Channel, the csrows cross both DIMMs. + +Memory DIMMs come single or dual "ranked". A rank is a populated csrow. +Thus, 2 single ranked DIMMs, placed in slots DIMM_A0 and DIMM_B0 above +will have 1 csrow, csrow0. csrow1 will be empty. On the other hand, +when 2 dual ranked DIMMs are similarly placed, then both csrow0 and +csrow1 will be populated. The pattern repeats itself for csrow2 and +csrow3. + +The representation of the above is reflected in the directory tree +in EDAC's sysfs interface. Starting in directory +/sys/devices/system/edac/mc each memory controller will be represented +by its own 'mcX' directory, where 'X' is the index of the MC. + + + ..../edac/mc/ + | + |->mc0 + |->mc1 + |->mc2 + .... + +Under each 'mcX' directory each 'csrowX' is again represented by a +'csrowX', where 'X' is the csrow index: + + + .../mc/mc0/ + | + |->csrow0 + |->csrow2 + |->csrow3 + .... + +Notice that there is no csrow1, which indicates that csrow0 is +composed of a single ranked DIMMs. This should also apply in both +Channels, in order to have dual-channel mode be operational. Since +both csrow2 and csrow3 are populated, this indicates a dual ranked +set of DIMMs for channels 0 and 1. + + +Within each of the 'mcX' and 'csrowX' directories are several +EDAC control and attribute files. + +============================================================================ +'mcX' DIRECTORIES + + +In 'mcX' directories are EDAC control and attribute files for +this 'X' instance of the memory controllers: + + +Counter reset control file: + + 'reset_counters' + + This write-only control file will zero all the statistical counters + for UE and CE errors. Zeroing the counters will also reset the timer + indicating how long since the last counter zero. This is useful + for computing errors/time.

For example, +the 'test_device_edac' device (found at the bluesmoke.sourceforget.net website) +installs itself as: + + /sys/devices/systm/edac/test-instance + +in this directory are various controls, a symlink and one or more 'instance' +directorys. + +The standard default controls are: + + log_ce boolean to log CE events + log_ue boolean to log UE events + panic_on_ue boolean to 'panic' the system if an UE is encountered + (default off, can be set true via startup script) + poll_msec time period between POLL cycles for events + +The test_device_edac device adds at least one of its own custom control: + + test_bits which in the current test driver does nothing but + show how it is installed.

For the 'test_device_edac' case: + + test-instance0 + + +In this directory there are two default counter attributes, which are totals of +counter in deeper subdirectories. + + ce_count total of CE events of subdirectories + ue_count total of UE events of subdirectories + +BLOCKS + +At the lowest directory level is the 'block' directory.

They will likely be changed on future versions +of the driver. + +Due to the way Nehalem exports Memory Controller data, some adjustments +were done at i7core_edac driver. This chapter will cover those differences + +1) On Nehalem, there are one Memory Controller per Quick Patch Interconnect + (QPI). At the driver, the term "socket" means one QPI. This is + associated with a physical CPU socket. + + Each MC have 3 physical read channels, 3 physical write channels and + 3 logic channels. The driver currenty sees it as just 3 channels. + Each channel can have up to 3 DIMMs. + + The minimum known unity is DIMMs. There are no information about csrows. + As EDAC API maps the minimum unity is csrows, the driver sequencially + maps channel/dimm into different csrows. + + For example, supposing the following layout: + Ch0 phy rd0, wr0 (0x063f4031): 2 ranks, UDIMMs + dimm 0 1024 Mb offset: 0, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400 + dimm 1 1024 Mb offset: 4, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400 + Ch1 phy rd1, wr1 (0x063f4031): 2 ranks, UDIMMs + dimm 0 1024 Mb offset: 0, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400 + Ch2 phy rd3, wr3 (0x063f4031): 2 ranks, UDIMMs + dimm 0 1024 Mb offset: 0, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400 + The driver will map it as: + csrow0: channel 0, dimm0 + csrow1: channel 0, dimm1 + csrow2: channel 1, dimm0 + csrow3: channel 2, dimm0 + +exports one + DIMM per csrow. + + Each QPI is exported as a different memory controller. + +2) Nehalem MC has the hability to generate errors. The driver implements this + functionality via some error injection nodes: + + For injecting a memory error, there are some sysfs nodes, under + /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc?/: + + inject_addrmatch/*: + Controls the error injection mask register. It is possible to specify + several characteristics of the address to match an error code: + dimm = the affected dimm. Numbers are relative to a channel; + rank = the memory rank; + channel = the channel that will generate an error; + bank = the affected bank; + page = the page address; + column (or col) = the address column. + each of the above values can be set to "any" to match any valid value. + + At driver init, all values are set to any. + + For example, to generate an error at rank 1 of dimm 2, for any channel, + any bank, any page, any column: + echo 2 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/dimm + echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/rank + + To return to the default behaviour of matching any, you can do: + echo any >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/dimm + echo any >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/rank + + inject_eccmask: + specifies what bits will have troubles, + + inject_section: + specifies what ECC cache section will get the error: + 3 for both + 2 for the highest + 1 for the lowest + + inject_type: + specifies the type of error, being a combination of the following bits: + bit 0 - repeat + bit 1 - ecc + bit 2 - parity + + inject_enable starts the error generation when something different + than 0 is written. + + All inject vars can be read. root permission is needed for write. + + Datasheet states that the error will only be generated after a write on an + address that matches inject_addrmatch. It seems, however, that reading will + also produce an error. + + For example, the following code will generate an error for any write access + at socket 0, on any DIMM/address on channel 2: + + echo 2 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/channel + echo 2 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_type + echo 64 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_eccmask + echo 3 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_section + echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_enable + dd if=/dev/mem of=/dev/null seek=16k bs=4k count=1 >& /dev/null + + For socket 1, it is needed to replace "mc0" by "mc1" at the above + commands. + + The generated error message will look like: + + EDAC MC0: UE row 0, channel-a= 0 channel-b= 0 labels "-": NON_FATAL (addr = 0x0075b980, socket=0, Dimm=0, Channel=2, syndrome=0x00000040, count=1, Err=8c0000400001009f:4000080482 (read error: read ECC error)) + +3) Nehalem specific Corrected Error memory counters + + Nehalem have some registers to count memory errors. The driver uses those + registers to report Corrected Errors on devices with Registered Dimms. + + However, those counters don't work with Unregistered Dimms. As the chipset + offers some counters that also work with UDIMMS (but with a worse level of + granularity than the default ones), the driver exposes those registers for + UDIMM memories. + + They can be read by looking at the contents of all_channel_counts/ + + $ for i in /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/*; do echo $i; cat $i; done + /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/udimm0 + 0 + /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/udimm1 + 0 + /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/udimm2 + 0 + + What happens here is that errors on different csrows, but at the same + dimm number will increment the same counter. + So, in this memory mapping: + csrow0: channel 0, dimm0 + csrow1: channel 0, dimm1 + csrow2: channel 1, dimm0 + csrow3: channel 2, dimm0 + The hardware will increment udimm0 for an error at the first dimm at either + csrow0, csrow2 or csrow3; + The hardware will increment udimm1 for an error at the second dimm at either + csrow0, csrow2 or csrow3; + The hardware will increment udimm2 for an error at the third dimm at either + csrow0, csrow2 or csrow3; + +4) Standard error counters + + The standard error counters are generated when an mcelog error is received + by the driver. Since, with udimm, this is counted by software, it is + possible that some errors could be lost. With rdimm's, they displays the + contents of the registers -- cgit v1.2.3
