Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-linux-mm@kvack.org Return-Path: To: bluesmoke-devel@lists.sourceforge.net, linux-mm@kvack.org List-ID: Hello, I just noticed that there is memory hotplug / hotremove support in the kernel.org kernel now. I was thinking that it may be desirable (e.g. on large NUMA systems) to automatically trigger the removal of memory modules (or just take a section of the memory module out of use, if applicable), if a memory module exceeded a pre-set correctable error rate (or RIGHT-NOW, if an uncorrectable memory error was detected).
