ECC Codes
When the Falcon reports a single-bit error, software can use the syndrome
that was logged by the Falcon (upper or lower depending where the error
occurred) to determine which bit was in error.

addresses and bit numbers, the user needs to understand how the Falcon
pair positions PowerPC data in DRAM. See the section on
for an explanation of this.
