From 9579f5bd31a04e80a87a7b58bd52dff6dc68bc99 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Akinobu Mita Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2012 14:43:10 -0700 Subject: memory: memory notifier error injection module This provides the ability to inject artifical errors to memory hotplug notifier chain callbacks. It is controlled through debugfs interface under /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/memory If the notifier call chain should be failed with some events notified, write the error code to "actions//error". Example: Inject memory hotplug offline error (-12 == -ENOMEM) # cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/memory # echo -12 > actions/MEM_GOING_OFFLINE/error # echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state bash: echo: write error: Cannot allocate memory Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita Cc: Pavel Machek Cc: "Rafael J.
