Subject: aer_inject vs. apei/einj
Date: Wed, 17 Feb 2016 14:33:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160217143306.6340c6cf@endymion> (raw)

Hi all,

I am looking for some guidance regarding AER testing. I see that we
have two different drivers for error injection in the kernel:
aer_inject and apei/einj. The user-space aer-inject tool seems to only
care about the former.

How does one know which driver should be used on a given system? I
suppose that only one of them will work on a given system?

My impression is that aer_inject is for "native" AER handling while
apei/einj is for ACPI-driven AER. Is it correct? If not I would
appreciate some pointers explaining when aer_inject should be used and
when apei/einj should be used.

Thanks,
