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. |
