My sincere apologies for not posting the work directly. My intention is to point interested parties to contributions that Google has made to this space through known and respected channels. The cited research is not my research but the research of my colleagues. As a result, I hesitate to paraphrase the work as I will likely get the details wrong. In any case, Shane's points are the most relevant for the discussion here. Please refer to his post in this thread. In an attempt to contribute to the community as much as I can, I have prepared and mailed our BadRAM patch as requested. In case it is not otherwise clear, my belief is that the ideal solution for the upstream kernel is a hybrid of our approaches.
