SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +==================== +APEI Error INJection +==================== + +EINJ provides a hardware error injection mechanism. It is very useful +for debugging and testing APEI and RAS features in general. + +You need to check whether your BIOS supports EINJ first. For that, look +for early boot messages similar to this one:: + + ACPI: EINJ 0x000000007370A000 000150 (v01 INTEL 00000001 INTL 00000001) + +which shows that the BIOS is exposing an EINJ table - it is the +mechanism through which the injection is done. + +Alternatively, look in /sys/firmware/acpi/tables for an "EINJ" file, +which is a different representation of the same thing. + +It doesn't necessarily mean that EINJ is not supported if those above +don't exist: before you give up, go into BIOS setup to see if the BIOS +has an option to enable error injection. Look for something called WHEA +or similar. Often, you need to enable an ACPI5 support option prior, in +order to see the APEI,EINJ,... functionality supported and exposed by +the BIOS menu. + +To use EINJ, make sure the following are options enabled in your kernel +configuration:: + + CONFIG_DEBUG_FS + CONFIG_ACPI_APEI + CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_EINJ + +The EINJ user interface is in <debugfs mount point>/apei/einj. + +The following files belong to it: + +- available_error_type + + This file shows which error types are supported: + + ================ =================================== + Error Type Value Error Description + ================ =================================== + 0x00000001 Processor Correctable + 0x00000002 Processor Uncorrectable non-fatal + 0x00000004 Processor Uncorrectable fatal + 0x00000008 Memory Correctable + 0x00000010 Memory Uncorrectable non-fatal + 0x00000020 Memory Uncorrectable fatal + 0x00000040 PCI Express Correctable + 0x00000080 PCI Express Uncorrectable non-fatal + 0x00000100 PCI Express Uncorrectable fatal + 0x00000200 Platform Correctable + 0x00000400 Platform Uncorrectable non-fatal + 0x00000800 Platform Uncorrectable fatal + ================ =================================== + + The format of the file contents are as above, except present are only + the available error types. + +- error_type + + Set the value of the error type being injected. Possible error types + are defined in the file available_error_type above. + +- error_inject + + Write any integer to this file to trigger the error injection. Make + sure you have specified all necessary error parameters, i.e. this + write should be the last step when injecting errors. + +- flags + + Present for kernel versions 3.13 and above. Used to specify which + of param{1..4} are valid and should be used by the firmware during + injection. Value is a bitmask as specified in ACPI5.0 spec for the + SET_ERROR_TYPE_WITH_ADDRESS data structure: + + Bit 0 + Processor APIC field valid (see param3 below). + Bit 1 + Memory address and mask valid (param1 and param2). + Bit 2 + PCIe (seg,bus,dev,fn) valid (see param4 below). + + If set to zero, legacy behavior is mimicked where the type of + injection specifies just one bit set, and param1 is multiplexed. + +- param1 + + This file is used to set the first error parameter value. Its effect + depends on the error type specified in error_type. For example, if + error type is memory related type, the param1 should be a valid + physical memory address. [Unless "flag" is set - see above] + +- param2 + + Same use as param1 above. For example, if error type is of memory + related type, then param2 should be a physical memory address mask. + Linux requires page or narrower granularity, say, 0xfffffffffffff000. + +- param3 + + Used when the 0x1 bit is set in "flags" to specify the APIC id + +- param4 + Used when the 0x4 bit is set in "flags" to specify target PCIe device + +- notrigger + + The error injection mechanism is a two-step process. First inject the + error, then perform some actions to trigger it. Setting "notrigger" + to 1 skips the trigger phase, which *may* allow the user to cause the + error in some other context by a simple access to the CPU, memory + location, or device that is the target of the error injection. Whether + this actually works depends on what operations the BIOS actually + includes in the trigger phase. + +BIOS versions based on the ACPI 4.0 specification have limited options +in controlling 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 based on the ACPI 5.0 specification have more control over +the target of the injection. For processor-related errors (type 0x1, 0x2 +and 0x4), you can set flags to 0x3 (param3 for bit 0, and param1 and +param2 for bit 1) so that you have more information added to the error +signature being injected. The actual data passed is this:: + + memory_address = param1; + memory_address_range = param2; + apicid = param3; + pcie_sbdf = param4; + +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 0x40, 0x80 and 0x100) the segment, bus, device and +function are specified using param1:: + + 31 24 23 16 15 11 10 8 7 0 + +-------------------------------------------------+ + | segment | bus | device | function | reserved | + +-------------------------------------------------+ + +Anyway, you get the idea, if there's doubt just take a look at the code +in drivers/acpi/apei/einj.c. + +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). + + +An error injection example:: + + # cd /sys/kernel/debug/apei/einj + # cat available_error_type # See which errors can be injected + 0x00000002 Processor Uncorrectable non-fatal + 0x00000008 Memory Correctable + 0x00000010 Memory Uncorrectable non-fatal + # echo 0x12345000 > param1 # Set memory address for injection + # echo 0xfffffffffffff000 > param2 # Mask - anywhere in this page + # echo 0x8 > error_type # Choose correctable memory error + # echo 1 > error_inject # Inject now + +You should see something like this in dmesg:: + + [22715.830801] EDAC sbridge MC3: HANDLING MCE MEMORY ERROR + [22715.834759] EDAC sbridge MC3: CPU 0: Machine Check Event: 0 Bank 7: 8c00004000010090 + [22715.834759] EDAC sbridge MC3: TSC 0 + [22715.834759] EDAC sbridge MC3: ADDR 12345000 EDAC sbridge MC3: MISC 144780c86 + [22715.834759] EDAC sbridge MC3: PROCESSOR 0:306e7 TIME 1422553404 SOCKET 0 APIC 0 + [22716.616173] EDAC MC3: 1 CE memory read error on CPU_SrcID#0_Channel#0_DIMM#0 (channel:0 slot:0 page:0x12345 offset:0x0 grain:32 syndrome:0x0 - area:DRAM err_code:0001:0090 socket:0 channel_mask:1 rank:0) + +Special notes for injection into SGX enclaves: + +There may be a separate BIOS setup option to enable SGX injection. + +The injection process consists of setting some special memory controller +trigger that will inject the error on the next write to the target +address.
