ACPI 5.0 provides extensions to the EINJ mechanism to specify the
target for the error injection - by APICID for cpu related errors,
by address for memory related errors, and by segment/bus/device/function
for PCIe related errors. Also extensions for vendor specific error
injections.

-Injecting parameter support is a BIOS version specific extension, that

-make sure your BIOS version has the proper support and specify
-"param_extension=y" in module parameter.
+BIOS versions based in the ACPI 4.0 specification have limited options
+to control where the errors are injected. Your BIOS may support an
+extension (enabled with the param_extension=1 module parameter, or
+boot command line einj.param_extension=1). This allows the address
+and mask for memory injections to be specified by the param1 and
+param2 files in apei/einj.
+
+BIOS versions using the ACPI 5.0 specification have more control over
+the target of the injection. For processor related errors (type 0x1,
+0x2 and 0x4) the APICID of the target should be provided using the
+param1 file in apei/einj. For memory errors (type 0x8, 0x10 and 0x20)
+the address is set using param1 with a mask in param2 (0x0 is equivalent
+to all ones). For PCI express errors (type 0x80, 0x80 and 0x100) the
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
should be 0x40, 0x80 and 0x100
+segment, bus, device and function are specified using param1:

+ +-------------------------------------------------+
+ | segment | bus | device | function | reserved |
+ +-------------------------------------------------+
+
+An ACPI 5.0 BIOS may also allow vendor specific errors to be injected.
+In this case a file named vendor will contain identifying information
+from the BIOS that hopefully will allow an application wishing to use
+the vendor specific extension to tell that they are running on a BIOS
+that supports it. All vendor extensions have the 0x80000000 bit set in
+error_type. A file vendor_flags controls the interpretation of param1
+and param2 (1 = PROCESSOR, 2 = MEMORY, 4 = PCI). See your BIOS vendor
+documentation for details (and expect changes to this API if vendors
+creativity in using this feature expands beyond our expectations).
For more information about EINJ, please refer to ACPI specification
-version 4.0, section 17.5.
+version 4.0, section 17.5 and ACPI 5.0, section 18.6.
In my own opinion, it is too hard for the one to use all kinds of combinations
to control test conditions. If still keeping current parameters, I suggest
adding some examples to clarify them.
