Intel® 5000P/5000V/5000Z Chipset Memory Controller Hub (MCH) Datasheet
the copy has completed. This is accomplished autonomously by the memory control
subsystem. The SPCPS.SFO configuration bit is set and an interrupt is issued indicating
that a sparing event has completed.
Sparing cannot be invoked while operating a mirrored memory configuration. Sparing
to a smaller DIMM is not supported.
Note: DIMM sparing is not validated in the Single Channel Mode when Intel 5000P
Chipset.MCA.SCHDIMM is set.
Data Poisoning in Memory
Data Poisoning in memory is defined as all zeroes in the code word (32B0 except for
the least significant bytes being 0xFF00FF. The Intel 5000P Chipset MCH poisons a
memory location based on the events described in Table 5.5, “Memory Poisoned Table”

Patrol Scrubbing
To enable this function, the MC.SCRBEN configuration bit must be set. The scrub unit starts at DIMM Rank
0 / Address 0 upon reset. Every 16k core cycles the unit will scrub one cache line and then increment the
address one cache line provided that back pressure or other internal dependencies (queueing, conflicts etc) do
not prolong the issuing of these transactions to FB-DIMM. Using this method, roughly 64GBytes of memory
behind the Intel 5000P Chipset MCH can be completely scrubbed every day (estimate). Error logs include
RAS/CAS/BANK/RANK. Patrol scrub writes hit both branches in mirrored mode (when MC.MIRROR is
set). Normally, one branch is scrubbed in entirety before proceeding to the other branch. In the instance of a
fail-down to non-redundant operation that off-lines the branch that was being scrubbed, the scrub pointer
merely migrates to the other branch without being cleared. In this unique instance, the scrub cycles for that
branch is incomplete.
