Yes, I think I focused on the soft offline part too much and missed the uncorrected error part and I admit I did underestimate the problem. I think Hugh's suggestion makes sense if we treat tmpfs as a regular filesystem (just memory backed). AFAIK, some filesystem, e.g. btrfs, may do checksum after reading from storage block then return an error if checksum is not right since it may indicate hardware failure on disk. Then the syscalls or page fault return error or SIGBUS. So in shmem/tmpfs case, if hwpoisoned page is met, just return error (-EIO or whatever) for syscall or SIGBUS for page fault. It does align with the behavior of other filesystems. It is definitely applications' responsibility to check the return value of read/write syscalls. > > - Naoya Horiguchi > > > > > The question is how to distinguish them with allocating and freeing THP > > which can't be handled by hwpoison properly.
