    memory: memory notifier error injection module · 9579f5bd

    This provides the ability to inject artifical errors to memory hotplug
    notifier chain callbacks.  It is controlled through debugfs interface
    under /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/memory
    
    If the notifier call chain should be failed with some events notified,
    write the error code to "actions/<notifier event>/error".
    
    Example: Inject memory hotplug offline error (-12 == -ENOMEM)
    
    	# cd /sys/kernel/debug/notifier-error-inject/memory
    	# echo -12 > actions/MEM_GOING_OFFLINE/error
    	# echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state
    	bash: echo: write error: Cannot allocate memory
