Description:
(RO) Report flags indicating various states of a
papr-pmem NVDIMM device. Each flag maps to a one or
more bits set in the dimm-health-bitmap retrieved in
response to H_SCM_HEALTH hcall. The details of the bit
flags returned in response to this hcall is available
at 'Documentation/arch/powerpc/papr_hcalls.rst' . Below are
the flags reported in this sysfs file:
* "not_armed"
Indicates that NVDIMM contents will not
survive a power cycle.
* "flush_fail"
Indicates that NVDIMM contents
couldn't be flushed during last
shut-down event.
* "restore_fail"
Indicates that NVDIMM contents
couldn't be restored during NVDIMM
initialization.
* "encrypted"
NVDIMM contents are encrypted.
* "smart_notify"
There is health event for the NVDIMM.
* "scrubbed"
Indicating that contents of the
NVDIMM have been scrubbed.
* "locked"
Indicating that NVDIMM contents can't
be modified until next power cycle.

KernelVersion: v5.17
Contact: linuxppc-dev <[email protected]>, [email protected],
Description:
(RO) Reports the health bitmap inject bitmap that is applied to
bitmap received from PowerVM via the H_SCM_HEALTH. This is used
to forcibly set specific bits returned from Hcall. These is then
used to simulate various health or shutdown states for an nvdimm
and are set by user-space tools like ndctl by issuing a PAPR DSM.
