Thanks!  I tried
mkfs.xfs -d agcount=2,extszinherit=512,su=2m,sw=1 -m reflink=0 -m 
rmapbt=1 -f /dev/pmem0

Again, injected a HW poison to the first page in a dax-file, had
the poison consumed and received a SIGBUS. The result is better -

** SIGBUS(7): canjmp=1, whichstep=0, **
** si_addr(0x0x7ff2d8800000), si_lsb(0x15), si_code(0x4, BUS_MCEERR_AR) **

The SIGBUS payload looks correct.

However, "dmesg" has 2048 lines on sending SIGBUS, one per 512bytes -

fsdax_poison_v1:4109 due to hardware memory corruption

That's too much for a single process dealing with a single
poison in a PMD page. If nothing else, given an .si_addr_lsb being 0x15,
it doesn't make sense to send a SIGBUS per 512B block.

Could you determine the user process' mapping size from the filesystem,
and take that as a hint to determine how many iterations to call
mf_dax_kill_procs() ?

thanks!
