Note that there's little empirical evidence that this is directly applicable to the kinds of errors (single bit, or otherwise) that a single failing disk medium would produce. Modern disks already include and rely on a lot of ECC as part of ordinary operation, below the level usually seen by the host. These mechanisms seem unlikely to return a read with just one (or a few) bit errors. This strikes me, if implemented, as potentially more applicable to errors introduced from other sources (controller/bus transfer errors, non-ecc memory, weak power supply, etc). Still handy. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
