+Introduction
+------------
+
+EDAC/RAS components plugging and high-level design:
+
+1. Scrub control
+
+2. Error Check Scrub (ECS) control
+
+3. ACPI RAS2 features
+
+4. Post Package Repair (PPR) control
+
+5. Memory Sparing Repair control
+
+High level design is illustrated in the following diagram::

+
+
+1. EDAC Features components - Create feature-specific descriptors. For
+ example: scrub, ECS, memory repair in the above diagram.
+
+2. EDAC device driver for controlling RAS Features - Get feature's attribute
+ descriptors from EDAC RAS feature component and registers device's RAS
+ features with EDAC bus and expose the features control attributes via
+ sysfs. For example, /sys/bus/edac/devices/<dev-name>/<feature>X/
+
+3. RAS dynamic feature controller - Userspace sample modules in rasdaemon for
+ dynamic scrub/repair control to issue scrubbing/repair when excess number
+ of corrected memory errors are reported in a short span of time.
+
+RAS features
+------------
+1. Memory Scrub
+
+Memory scrub features are documented in `Documentation/edac/scrub.rst`.
+
+2. Memory Repair
+
+Memory repair features are documented in `Documentation/edac/memory_repair.rst`.
