We've tried the ndctl error injection. Now the error injection is
successful. But we have a couple of questions related with the
poisoned block.
Here are some tests/steps that I did:
1. I mmap the first 10GB of /dev/dax13.0 to virtual address space and
inject an error at offset 1GB (block offset should be 1GB/512bytes =
2097152) which seems fine:
[root@scaqae09celadm13 wning]# ndctl inject-error --uninject --block=2097152
--count=1 namespace13.0
Warning: Un-injecting previously injected errors here will
not cause the kernel to 'forget' its badblock entries. Those
have to be cleared through the normal process of writing
the affected blocks
{
"dev":"namespace13.0",
"mode":"dax",
"size":518967525376,
"uuid":"0738c8bd-3b3f-4989-9d0e-0e9c6006c810",
"chardev":"dax13.0",
"numa_node":0,
"badblock_count":1,
"badblocks":[
{ "offset":2097152, "length":1, "dimms":[ "nmem1" ] }
]
}
2. In my test program, I just try to read every address of the first
10GB. At the first time, when I read the offset 1GB, I got the SIGBUS
error, but in the sinfo struct of signal handler, the failed address
is NULL and signal code is 128 which seems incorrect. But then if we
run again, the unit test gets stuck here:
rt_sigaction(SIGBUS,
{0x400dd2, [], SA_RESTORER|SA_SIGINFO, 0x7fb5cf839270}
, NULL, 8) = 0
And here is the output of log messages:

Apr 3 14:51:11 scaqae09celadm13 kernel: mce: Memory error not recovered
The program I use is (simple do memcpy and directly read from the
target address):
for (i = 0; i < DAX_MAPPING_SIZE; i++) // DAX_MAPPING_SIZE is 10G
{ total += peek(buf + i); }
char peek(void *addr)
{ char temp[128]; memcpy(temp, addr, 1); return *(char *)addr; }
May I ask do we missed steps in triggering the SIGBUS error?
