NAME
       ndctl-wait-scrub - wait for an Address Range Scrub (ARS) operation to complete


SYNOPSIS
       ndctl wait-scrub [<bus-id> <bus-id2> ... <bus-idN>] [<options>]


DESCRIPTION
       NVDIMM Address Range Scrub is a capability provided by platform firmware that allows for
       the discovery of memory errors by system software. It enables system software to
       pre-emptively avoid accesses that could lead to uncorrectable memory error handling
       events, and it otherwise allows memory errors to be enumerated.

       The kernel provides a POLL(2) capable sysfs file (scrub) to indicate the state of ARS. The
       scrub file maintains a running count of ARS runs that have taken place. While a current
       run is in progress a + character is emitted along with the current count. The ndctl
       wait-scrub operation waits for scrub, across all specified buses, to indicate not
       in-progress at least once.


EXAMPLE
       Wait for scrub on all nvdimm buses in the system. The json listing report at the end only
       includes the buses that support ARS operations.

           # ndctl wait-scrub
           [
             {
               "provider":"nfit_test.1",
               "dev":"ndbus3",
               "scrub_state":"idle"
             },
             {
               "provider":"nfit_test.0",
               "dev":"ndbus2",
               "scrub_state":"idle"
             }
           ]

       When specifying an individual bus, or if there is only one bus in the system, the command
       reports whether ARS support is available.

           # ndctl wait-scrub e820
           error waiting for scrub completion: Operation not supported


OPTIONS
       -v, --verbose
           Emit debug messages for the ARS wait process
