What:		/sys/bus/nd/devices/regionX/nfit/ecc_unit_size

Date:		Aug, 2017

KernelVersion:	v4.14 (Removed v4.18)
 |

Contact:	nvdimm@lists.linux.dev

Description:
 | 
						|
		(RO) Size of a write request to a DIMM that will not incur a
 | 
						|
		read-modify-write cycle at the memory controller.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		When the nfit driver initializes it runs an ARS (Address Range
 | 
						|
		Scrub) operation across every pmem range. Part of that process
 | 
						|
		involves determining the ARS capabilities of a given address
 | 
						|
		range. One of the capabilities that is reported is the 'Clear
 | 
						|
		Uncorrectable Error Range Length Unit Size' (see: ACPI 6.2
 | 
						|
		section 9.20.7.4 Function Index 1 - Query ARS Capabilities).
 | 
						|
		This property indicates the boundary at which the NVDIMM may
 | 
						|
		need to perform read-modify-write cycles to maintain ECC (Error
 | 
						|
		Correcting Code) blocks.
