53Description:
54		(RO) The flags in the NFIT memory device sub-structure indicate
55		the state of the data on the nvdimm relative to its energy
56		source or last "flush to persistence".
57
58		The attribute is a translation of the 'NVDIMM State Flags' field
59		in section 5.2.25.3 'NVDIMM Region Mapping' Structure of the
60		ACPI specification 6.2.
61
62		The health states are "save_fail", "restore_fail", "flush_fail",

72Description:
73		(RO) The interface codes indicate support for persistent memory
74		mapped directly into system physical address space and / or a
75		block aperture access mechanism to the NVDIMM media.
76		The 'formats' attribute displays the number of supported
77		interfaces.
78
79		This layout is compatible with existing libndctl binaries that
80		only expect one code per-dimm as they will ignore
81		nmemX/nfit/formats and nmemX/nfit/formatN.

168Description:
169		(RW) This shows the number of full Address Range Scrubs (ARS)
170		that have been completed since driver load time. Userspace can
171		wait on this using select/poll etc. A '+' at the end indicates
172		an ARS is in progress
173
174		Writing a value of 1 triggers an ARS scan.

179KernelVersion:	v4.9
180Contact:	nvdimm@lists.linux.dev
181Description:
182		(RW) Provides a way to toggle the behavior between just adding
183		the address (cache line) where the MCE happened to the poison
184		list and doing a full scrub. The former (selective insertion of
185		the address) is done unconditionally.
186
187		This attribute can have the following values written to it:
188
189		'0': Switch to the default mode where an exception will only
190		insert the address of the memory error into the poison and
191		badblocks lists.
192		'1': Enable a full scrub to happen if an exception for a memory
193		error is received.

206Date:		Apr, 2020
207KernelVersion:	v5.8
208Contact:	nvdimm@lists.linux.dev
209Description:
210		(RW) The Intel platform implementation of firmware activate
211		support exposes an option let the platform force idle devices in
212		the system over the activation event, or trust that the OS will
213		do it. The safe default is to let the platform force idle
214		devices since the kernel is already in a suspend state, and on
215		the chance that a driver does not properly quiesce bus-mastering
216		after a suspend callback the platform will handle it.  However,
217		the activation might abort if, for example, platform firmware
218		determines that the activation time exceeds the max PCI-E
219		completion timeout. Since the platform does not know whether the
220		OS is running the activation from a suspend context it aborts,
221		but if the system owner trusts driver suspend callback to be
222		sufficient then 'firmware_activation_noidle' can be
223		enabled to bypass the activation abort.
