HWPOISON: add fs/device filters
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Filesystem data/metadata present the most tricky-to-isolate pages.
It requires careful code review and stress testing to get them right.

The fs/device filter helps to target the stress tests to some specific
filesystem pages. The filter condition is block device's major/minor
numbers:
        - corrupt-filter-dev-major
        - corrupt-filter-dev-minor
When specified (non -1), only page cache pages that belong to that
device will be poisoned.

The filters are checked reliably on the locked and refcounted page.

Haicheng: clear PG_hwpoison and drop bad page count if filter not OK
AK: Add documentation

corrupt-filter-dev-major
corrupt-filter-dev-minor

Only handle memory failures to pages associated with the file system defined
by block device major/minor. -1U is the wildcard value.
This should be only used for testing with artificial injection.

Architecture specific MCE injector

x86 has mce-inject, mce-test
