KernelVersion: v4.14 (Removed v4.18)

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.
