An example system that includes a processor, a memory controller, a memory, and a memory device. The memory controller coupled to the processor. The memory coupled to the memory controller, the memory to store a first copy of data stored according to a first test data pattern for use by a memory scrubbing operation. The memory device coupled to the memory controller. The memory controller may mirror a first set of data stored in a first block of memory of the memory device to a second block of memory of the memory device. The memory controller may also write the first copy of data to the first block of memory as a second copy of data. The memory controller send a first message to the processor indicating a memory fault error for the first block of memory.

A processor includes a logic to determine an error condition reported in an error bank. The error bank is communicatively coupled to the processor and is associated with logical processors of the processor. The processor includes another logic to generate an interrupt indicating the error condition. The processor includes yet another logic to selectively send the interrupt to a single one of the logical processors associated with the error bank.
