If they did so... the fallout would be interesting. Does anyone know what proportion of modern memory has this flaw? Would it result in tens of thousands of customers returning stick after stick of DRAM until they were able to get a reliable one?
- tenfingers 12y agomemtest86 has this feature in beta, and it's already generating some heat. I would be personally more interested in this test on memtest86+ though.
- AceJohnny2 12y agoWhat's the difference between memtest86 and memtest86+? OK, from WP [1]: "Memtest86 was developed by Chris Brady. After Memtest86 remained at v3.0 (2002 release) for two years, the Memtest86+ fork was created by Samuel Demeulemeester to add support for newer CPUs and chipsets. As of November 2013 the latest version of Memtest86+ is 5.01." And the original has become a commercial program by PassMark. So I think at this point if anyone is talking about memtest86, they're likely referring to the still open-source '+' version.

- hannob 12y agoThere is a github repo with a rowhammer test based on memtest86+: https://github.com/CMU-SAFARI/rowhammer https://github.com/CMU-SAFARI/rowhammer
