[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Update EINJ kernel document to include how to inject CXL protocol error
types, build the kernel to include CXL error types, and give an example
injection.

+CXL error types are supported from ACPI 6.5 onwards. These error types
+are not available in the legacy interface at /sys/kernel/debug/apei/einj,
+and are instead at /sys/kernel/debug/cxl/. There is a file under debug/cxl
+called "einj_type" that is analagous to available_error_type under debug/cxl.
+There is also a "einj_inject" file in each $dport_dev directory under debug/cxl
+that will inject a given error into the dport represented by $dport_dev.
+For example, to inject a CXL.mem protocol correctable error into
+$dport_dev=pci0000:0c::
+
+    # cd /sys/kernel/debug/cxl/
+    # cat einj_type                 # See which error can be injected
+	0x00008000  CXL.mem Protocol Correctable
+	0x00010000  CXL.mem Protocol Uncorrectable non-fatal
+	0x00020000  CXL.mem Protocol Uncorrectable fatal
+    # cd pci0000:0c                 # Navigate to dport to inject into
+    # echo 0x8000 > einj_inject     # Inject error
+
+To use CXL error types, ``CONFIG_CXL_EINJ`` will need to be enabled.
+
 Special notes for injection into SGX enclaves:
 
 There may be a separate BIOS setup option to enable SGX injection.
