Forward Error Correction counters and FDR bit error rate

$

Hi everyone. Is there a way to measure the number of bit errors corrected by a Mellanox FDR HCA (ConnectX-3 or Connect-IB)? Somehow, perfquery shows all error counters as zero even after I transmitted many more bits than the inverse bit error rate, which I assume to be 10^(-15). (I transmitted a little over a petabyte, so around 10^16 bits.)

 

Is the actual bit error rate of these devices with passive copper cables even lower than 10^(-15)? That is the number that I saw on Mellanox product briefs.
