I notice that the ndctl --media-errors records are:
{ offset, length }
...it is not clear to me that "dpa" and "hpa" have much meaning to
userspace by default. Physical address information is privileged, so if
these records were { offset, length } tuples there is the possibility
that they can be provided to non-root.
"Offset" is region relative "hpa" when listing region media errors, and
"offset" is memdev relative "dpa" while listing memdev relative media
errors.
