Add fault injection capability:
- Drop packets unconditionally (fault_by_packet)
- Drop packets based on opcode (fault_by_opcode)
This feature reacts to the global FAULT_INJECTION
config flag.
The faulting traces have been added:
- misc/fault_opcode
- misc/fault_packet
See 'Documentation/fault-injection/fault-injection.txt'
for details.
Examples:
- Dropping packets by opcode:
/sys/kernel/debug/hfi1/hfi1_X/fault_opcode
# Enable fault
echo Y > fault_by_opcode
# Setprobability of dropping (0-100%)
# echo 25 > probability
# Set opcode
echo 0x64 > opcode
# Number of times to fault
echo 3 > times
# An optional mask allows you to fault
# a range of opcodes
echo 0xf0 > mask
/sys/kernel/debug/hfi1/hfi1_X/fault_stats
contains a value in parentheses to indicate
number of each opcode dropped.
- Dropping packets unconditionally
/sys/kernel/debug/hfi1/hfi1_X/fault_packet
# Enable fault
echo Y > fault_by_packet
/sys/kernel/debug/hfi1/hfi1_X/fault_packet/fault_stats
contains the number of packets dropped.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
