+Introduction
+------------
+Memory devices may support memory repair and maintenance operations to
+perform repairs on faulty memory media. Various types of memory repair
+features are available, such as Post Package Repair (PPR) and memory
+sparing.
+
+Post Package Repair(PPR)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+PPR maintenance operation requests the memory device to perform a repair
+operation on its media if supported. A memory device may support two types
+of PPR: Hard PPR (hPPR), for a permanent row repair and Soft PPR (sPPR),
+for a temporary row repair. sPPR is much faster than hPPR, but the repair
+is lost with a power cycle. During the execution of a PPR maintenance
+operation, a memory device, may or may not retain data and may or may not
+be able to process memory requests correctly. sPPR maintenance operation
+may be executed at runtime, if data is retained and memory requests are
+correctly processed. hPPR maintenance operation may be executed only at
+boot because data would not be retained. In CXL devices, sPPR and hPPR
+repair operations may be supported (CXL spec rev 3.1 sections 8.2.9.7.1.2
+and 8.2.9.7.1.3).
+
+Memory Sparing
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Memory sparing is defined as a repair function that replaces a portion of
+memory with a portion of functional memory at that same DPA. User space
+tool, e.g. rasdaemon, may request the sparing operation for a given
+address for which the uncorrectable error is reported. In CXL,
+(CXL spec 3.1 section 8.2.9.7.1.4) subclasses for sparing operation vary
+in terms of the scope of the sparing being performed. Cacheline sparing
+subclass refers to a sparing action that can replace a full cacheline.
+Row sparing is provided as an alternative to PPR sparing functions and its
+scope is that of a single DDR row. Bank sparing allows an entire bank to
+be replaced. Rank sparing is defined as an operation in which an entire
+DDR rank is replaced.
+
+Use cases of generic memory repair features control
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+1. The Soft PPR (sPPR), Hard PPR (hPPR), and memory-sparing features share
+similar control interfaces. Therefore, there is a need for a standardized,
+generic sysfs repair control that is exposed to userspace and used by
+administrators, scripts, and tools.
+
+2. When a CXL device detects a failure in a memory component, it may inform
+the host of the need for a repair maintenance operation by using an event
+record where the "maintenance needed" flag is set. The event record
+specifies the DPA that requires repair. The kernel reports the corresponding
+CXL general media or DRAM trace event to userspace, and userspace tools
+(e.g., rasdaemon) initiate a repair maintenance operation in response to
+the device request using the sysfs repair control.
+
+3. Userspace tools, such as rasdaemon, may request a PPR/sparing on a memory
+region when an uncorrected memory error or an excess of corrected memory
+errors is reported on that memory.
+
+4. Multiple PPR/sparing instances may be present per memory device.
+
+The File System
+---------------
+
+The control attributes of a registered scrubber instance could be
+accessed in the
+
+/sys/bus/edac/devices/<dev-name>/mem_repairX/
+
+sysfs
+-----
+
+Sysfs files are documented in
+
+`Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-edac-memory-repair`.

+Introduction
+------------
+Increasing DRAM size and cost have made memory subsystem reliability an
+important concern. These modules are used where potentially corrupted data
+could cause expensive or fatal issues. Memory errors are among the top
+hardware failures that cause server and workload crashes.
+
+Memory scrubbing is a feature where an ECC (Error-Correcting Code) engine
+reads data from each memory media location, corrects with an ECC if
+necessary and writes the corrected data back to the same memory media
+location.
+
+The memory DIMMs can be scrubbed at a configurable rate to detect
+uncorrected memory errors and attempt recovery from detected errors,
+providing the following benefits.
+
+* Proactively scrubbing memory DIMMs reduces the chance of a correctable error becoming uncorrectable.
+
+* When detected, uncorrected errors caught in unallocated memory pages are isolated and prevented from being allocated to an application or the OS.
+
+* This reduces the likelihood of software or hardware products encountering memory errors.
+
+There are 2 types of memory scrubbing:
+
+1. Background (patrol) scrubbing of the RAM while the RAM is otherwise
+idle.
+
+2. On-demand scrubbing for a specific address range or region of memory.
+
+Several types of interfaces to hardware memory scrubbers have been
+identified, such as CXL memory device patrol scrub, CXL DDR5 ECS, ACPI
+RAS2 memory scrubbing, and ACPI NVDIMM ARS (Address Range Scrub).
+
+The scrub control varies between different memory scrubbers. To allow
+for standard userspace tooling there is a need to present these controls
+with a standard ABI.
+
+The control mechanisms vary across different memory scrubbers. To enable
+standardized userspace tooling, there is a need to present these controls
+through a standardized ABI.
+
+Introduce a generic memory EDAC scrub control that allows users to manage
+underlying scrubbers in the system through a standardized sysfs scrub
+control interface. This common sysfs scrub control interface abstracts the
+management of various scrubbing functionalities into a unified set of
+functions.
+
+Use cases of common scrub control feature
+-----------------------------------------
+1. Several types of interfaces for hardware (HW) memory scrubbers have
+been identified, including the CXL memory device patrol scrub, CXL DDR5
+ECS, ACPI RAS2 memory scrubbing features, ACPI NVDIMM ARS (Address Range
+Scrub), and software-based memory scrubbers. Some of these scrubbers
+support control over patrol (background) scrubbing (e.g., ACPI RAS2, CXL)
+and/or on-demand scrubbing (e.g., ACPI RAS2, ACPI ARS). However, the scrub
+control interfaces vary between memory scrubbers, highlighting the need for
+a standardized, generic sysfs scrub control interface that is accessible to
+userspace for administration and use by scripts/tools.
+
+2. User-space scrub controls allow users to disable scrubbing if necessary,
+for example, to disable background patrol scrubbing or adjust the scrub
+rate for performance-aware operations where background activities need to
+be minimized or disabled.
+
+3. User-space tools enable on-demand scrubbing for specific address ranges,
+provided that the scrubber supports this functionality.
+
+4. User-space tools can also control memory DIMM scrubbing at a configurable
+scrub rate via sysfs scrub controls. This approach offers several benefits:
+
+* Detects uncorrectable memory errors early, before user access to affected memory, helping facilitate recovery.
+
+* Reduces the likelihood of correctable errors developing into uncorrectable errors.
+
+5. Policy control for hotplugged memory is necessary because there may not
+be a system-wide BIOS or similar control to manage scrub settings for a CXL
+device added after boot. Determining these settings is a policy decision,
+balancing reliability against performance, so userspace should control it.
+Therefore, a unified interface is recommended for handling this function in
+a way that aligns with other similar interfaces, rather than creating a
+separate one.

+CXL Memory Scrubbing features
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+CXL spec r3.1 section 8.2.9.9.11.1 describes the memory device patrol scrub
+control feature. The device patrol scrub proactively locates and makes
+corrections to errors in regular cycle. The patrol scrub control allows the
+request to configure patrol scrubber's input configurations.
+
+The patrol scrub control allows the requester to specify the number of
+hours in which the patrol scrub cycles must be completed, provided that
+the requested number is not less than the minimum number of hours for the
+patrol scrub cycle that the device is capable of. In addition, the patrol
+scrub controls allow the host to disable and enable the feature in case
+disabling of the feature is needed for other purposes such as
+performance-aware operations which require the background operations to be
+turned off.
+
+Error Check Scrub (ECS)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+CXL spec r3.1 section 8.2.9.9.11.2 describes the Error Check Scrub (ECS)
+is a feature defined in JEDEC DDR5 SDRAM Specification (JESD79-5) and
+allows the DRAM to internally read, correct single-bit errors, and write
+back corrected data bits to the DRAM array while providing transparency
+to error counts.
+
+The DDR5 device contains number of memory media FRUs per device. The
+DDR5 ECS feature and thus the ECS control driver supports configuring
+the ECS parameters per FRU.
+
+ACPI RAS2 Hardware-based Memory Scrubbing
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ACPI spec 6.5 section 5.2.21 ACPI RAS2 describes ACPI RAS2 table
+provides interfaces for platform RAS features and supports independent
+RAS controls and capabilities for a given RAS feature for multiple
+instances of the same component in a given system.
+Memory RAS features apply to RAS capabilities, controls and operations
+that are specific to memory. RAS2 PCC sub-spaces for memory-specific RAS
+features have a Feature Type of 0x00 (Memory).
+
+The platform can use the hardware-based memory scrubbing feature to expose
+controls and capabilities associated with hardware-based memory scrub
+engines. The RAS2 memory scrubbing feature supports following as per spec,
+
+* Independent memory scrubbing controls for each NUMA domain, identified using its proximity domain.
+
+* Provision for background (patrol) scrubbing of the entire memory system, as well as on-demand scrubbing for a specific region of memory.
+
+ACPI Address Range Scrubbing(ARS)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ACPI spec 6.5 section 9.19.7.2 describes Address Range Scrubbing(ARS).
+ARS allows the platform to communicate memory errors to system software.
+This capability allows system software to prevent accesses to addresses
+with uncorrectable errors in memory. ARS functions manage all NVDIMMs
+present in the system. Only one scrub can be in progress system wide
+at any given time.
+Following functions are supported as per the specification.
+
+1. Query ARS Capabilities for a given address range, indicates platform
+supports the ACPI NVDIMM Root Device Unconsumed Error Notification.
+
+2. Start ARS triggers an Address Range Scrub for the given memory range.
+Address scrubbing can be done for volatile memory, persistent memory, or both.
+
+3. Query ARS Status command allows software to get the status of ARS,
+including the progress of ARS and ARS error record.
+
+4. Clear Uncorrectable Error.
+
+5. Translate SPA
+
+6. ARS Error Inject etc.
+
+The kernel supports an existing control for ARS and ARS is currently not
+supported in EDAC.
+
+The File System
+---------------
+
+The control attributes of a registered scrubber instance could be
+accessed in the
+
+/sys/bus/edac/devices/<dev-name>/scrubX/
+
+sysfs
+-----
+
+Sysfs files are documented in
+
+`Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-edac-scrub`.
+
+`Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-edac-ecs`.
+
