From c17bb4951752d3e0f49cd1ea9d2e868422f9e0d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Akinobu Mita Date: Fri, 8 Dec 2006 02:39:46 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] fault-injection capability for disk IO This patch provides fault-injection capability for disk IO. Boot option: fail_make_request=,,, -- specifies the interval of failures. -- specifies how often it should fail in percent. -- specifies the size of free space where disk IO can be issued safely in bytes. -- specifies how many times failures may happen at most. Debugfs: /debug/fail_make_request/interval /debug/fail_make_request/probability /debug/fail_make_request/specifies /debug/fail_make_request/times Example: fail_make_request=10,100,0,-1 echo 1 > /sys/blocks/hda/hda1/make-it-fail generic_make_request() on /dev/hda1 fails once per 10 times.
