The former manages +a Parity DRAM module while the latter manages an ECC DRAM module. +.Sh DIAGNOSTICS +.Bl -diag -compact +.It memc0 at mainbus0. +This is the normal autoconfiguration message indicating that the +Memory Controller Chip has been found and attached to the main processor +bus. +.It memc0: Correctable error on CPU read access to 0x12345678. +This indicates that an MCECC memory controller detected and corrected +a single bit error in one of the DRAM banks. There are a few variations +on the message where "CPU" can be replaced with "Peripheral Device" +or "Scrubber", and "read" can be substituted for "write". +This message is followed by some more details which can help pin-point +the error... +.It memc0: ECC Syndrome 0x23 (DRAM Bank C, Bit#16). +Pin-points exactly where the error occurred. +.It memc0: Uncorrectable error on CPU read access to 0x12345678. +Errors like this have the potential to corrupt data. As such, it is +likely the system will panic very soon afterwards. +.El +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr mvme68k/mainbus 4 +.Sh BUGS +The +.Nm +driver does not yet fully support the MEMC040 (Parity) version +of the device. |
