2016-12-06acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status output length handlingDan Williams
Given ambiguities in the ACPI 6.1 definition of the "Output (Size)" field of the ARS (Address Range Scrub) Status command, a firmware implementation may in practice return 0, 4, or 8 to indicate that there is no output payload to process. The specification states "Size of Output Buffer in bytes, including this field.". However, 'Output Buffer' is also the name of the entire payload, and earlier in the specification it states "Max Query ARS Status Output Buffer Size: Maximum size of buffer (including the Status and Extended Status fields)". Without this fix if the BIOS happens to return 0 it causes memory corruption as evidenced by this result from the acpi_nfit_ctl() unit test. ars_status00000000: 00020000 00000000 ........

2016-10-27nvdimm: make CONFIG_NVDIMM_DAX 'bool'Arnd Bergmann
A bugfix just tried to address a randconfig build problem and introduced a variant of the same problem: with CONFIG_LIBNVDIMM=y and CONFIG_NVDIMM_DAX=m, the nvdimm module now fails to link: drivers/nvdimm/built-in.o: In function `to_nd_device_type': bus.c:(.text+0x1b5d): undefined reference to `is_nd_dax' drivers/nvdimm/built-in.o: In function `nd_region_notify_driver_action.constprop.2': region_devs.c:(.text+0x6b6c): undefined reference to `is_nd_dax' region_devs.c:(.text+0x6b8c): undefined reference to `to_nd_dax' drivers/nvdimm/built-in.o: In function `nd_region_probe': region.c:(.text+0x70f3): undefined reference to `nd_dax_create' drivers/nvdimm/built-in.o: In function `mode_show': namespace_devs.c:(.text+0xa196): undefined reference to `is_nd_dax' drivers/nvdimm/built-in.o: In function `nvdimm_namespace_common_probe': (.text+0xa55f): undefined reference to `is_nd_dax' drivers/nvdimm/built-in.o: In function `nvdimm_namespace_common_probe': (.text+0xa56e): undefined reference to `to_nd_dax' This reverts the earlier fix, making NVDIMM_DAX a 'bool' option again as it should be (it gets linked into the libnvdimm module). To fix the original problem, I'm adding a dependency on LIBNVDIMM to DEV_DAX_PMEM, which ensures we can't have that one built-in if the rest is a module.

2016-10-19pmem: report error on clear poison failureToshi Kani
ACPI Clear Uncorrectable Error DSM function may fail or may be unsupported on a platform. pmem_clear_poison() returns without clearing badblocks in such cases. This failure is detected at the next read (-EIO). This behavior can lead to an issue when user keeps writing but does not read immediately. For instance, flight recorder file may be only read when it is necessary for troubleshooting. Change pmem_do_bvec() and pmem_clear_poison() to return -EIO so that filesystem can log an error message on a write error.

2016-10-07/dev/dax: fix Kconfig dependency build breakageRoss Zwisler
The function dax_pmem_probe() in drivers/dax/pmem.c is compiled under the CONFIG_DEV_DAX_PMEM tri-state config option. This config option currently only depends on CONFIG_NVDIMM_DAX, a bool, which means that the following configuration is possible: CONFIG_LIBNVDIMM=m ... CONFIG_NVDIMM_DAX=y CONFIG_DEV_DAX=y CONFIG_DEV_DAX_PMEM=y With this config LIBNVDIMM is compiled as a module with NVDIMM_DAX=y just meaning that we will compile drivers/nvdimm/dax_devs.c into that module. However, dax_pmem_probe() depends on several symbols defined in drivers/nvdimm/dax_devs.c, which results in the following build errors: drivers/built-in.o: In function `dax_pmem_probe': linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:70: undefined reference to `to_nd_dax' linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:74: undefined reference to `nvdimm_namespace_common_probe' linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:80: undefined reference to `devm_nsio_enable' linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:81: undefined reference to `nvdimm_setup_pfn' linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:84: undefined reference to `devm_nsio_disable' linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:122: undefined reference to `to_nd_region' drivers/built-in.o: In function `dax_pmem_init': linux/drivers/dax/pmem.c:147: undefined reference to `__nd_driver_register' Fix this by making NVDIMM_DAX a tristate. DEV_DAX_PMEM depends on NVDIMM_DAX which depends on LIBNVDIMM. Since they are all now tristates, if LIBNVDIMM is built as a kernel module DEV_DAX_PMEM will be as well. This prevents dax_devs.c from being built as a built-in while its dependencies are in the libnvdimm.ko module.

2016-10-07libnvdimm, namespace: filter out of range labels in scan_labels()Dan Williams
Short-circuit doomed-to-fail label validation attempts by skipping labels that are outside the given region. For example a DIMM that has multiple PMEM regions will waste time attempting to create namespaces only to find that the interleave-set-cookie does not validate, e.g.: nd_region region6: invalid cookie in label: 73e608dc-47b9-4b2a-b5c7-2d55a32e0c2 Similar to how we skip BLK labels when performing PMEM validation we can skip out-of-range labels early.

2016-10-07libnvdimm, namespace: enable allocation of multiple pmem namespacesDan Williams
Now that we have nd_region_available_dpa() able to handle the presence of multiple PMEM allocations in aliased PMEM regions, reuse that same infrastructure to track allocations from free space. In particular handle allocating from an aliased PMEM region in the case where there are dis-contiguous holes. The allocation for BLK and PMEM are documented in the space_valid() helper: BLK-space is valid as long as it does not precede a PMEM allocation in a given region. PMEM-space must be contiguous and adjacent to an existing existing allocation (if one exists). Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2016-10-07libnvdimm, namespace: update label implementation for multi-pmemDan Williams
Instead of assuming that there will only ever be one allocated range at the start of the region, account for additional namespaces that might start at an offset from the region base.

2016-10-07libnvdimm, region: update nd_region_available_dpa() for multi-pmem supportDan Williams
The free dpa (dimm-physical-address) space calculation reports how much free space is available with consideration for aliased BLK + PMEM regions. Recall that BLK capacity is allocated from high addresses and PMEM is allocated from low addresses in their respective regions. nd_region_available_dpa() accounts for the fact that the largest encroachment (lowest starting address) into PMEM capacity by a BLK allocation limits the available capacity to that point, regardless if there is BLK allocation hole at a higher address. Similarly, for the multi-pmem case we need to track the largest encroachment (highest ending address) of a PMEM allocation in BLK capacity regardless of whether there is an allocation hole that a BLK allocation could fill at a lower address.

2016-09-30libnvdimm: clear the internal poison_list when clearing badblocksVishal Verma
nvdimm_clear_poison cleared the user-visible badblocks, and sent commands to the NVDIMM to clear the areas marked as 'poison', but it neglected to clear the same areas from the internal poison_list which is used to marshal ARS results before sorting them by namespace. As a result, once on-demand ARS functionality was added: 37b137f nfit, libnvdimm: allow an ARS scrub to be triggered on demand A scrub triggered from either sysfs or an MCE was found to be adding stale entries that had been cleared from gendisk->badblocks, but were still present in nvdimm_bus->poison_list. Additionally, the stale entries could be triggered into producing stale disk->badblocks by simply disabling and re-enabling the namespace or region. This adds the missing step of clearing poison_list entries when clearing poison, so that it is always in sync with badblocks.

Per "ACPI 6.1 Section 9.20.3" NVDIMM devices, children of the ACPI0012 NVDIMM Root device, can receive health event notifications. Given that these devices are precluded from registering a notification handler via acpi_driver.acpi_device_ops (due to no _HID), we use acpi_install_notify_handler() directly.

The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is deprecated. Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement either ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm. ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers to the memory controller on a power-fail event. Flush addresses are defined in ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure: "Flush Hint Address Structure". A flush hint is an mmio address that when written and fenced assures that all previous posted writes targeting a given dimm have been flushed to media. - On-demand ARS (address range scrub). Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks in pmem devices. When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the media to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a re-scrub at any time. - Support for the Microsoft DSM (device specific method) command format. - Support for EDK2/OVMF virtual disk device memory ranges. - Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem. * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (41 commits) libnvdimm-btt: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "__nd_device_register" nfit: do an ARS scrub on hitting a latent media error nfit: move to nfit/ sub-directory nfit, libnvdimm: allow an ARS scrub to be triggered on demand libnvdimm: register nvdimm_bus devices with an nd_bus driver pmem: clarify a debug print in pmem_clear_poison x86/insn: remove pcommit Revert "KVM: x86: add pcommit support" nfit, tools/testing/nvdimm/: unify shutdown paths libnvdimm: move ->module to struct nvdimm_bus_descriptor nfit: cleanup acpi_nfit_init calling convention nfit: fix _FIT evaluation memory leak + use after free tools/testing/nvdimm: add manufacturing_{date|location} dimm properties tools/testing/nvdimm: add virtual ramdisk range acpi, nfit: treat virtual ramdisk SPA as pmem region pmem: kill __pmem address space pmem: kill wmb_pmem() libnvdimm, pmem: use nvdimm_flush() for namespace I/O writes fs/dax: remove wmb_pmem() libnvdimm, pmem: flush posted-write queues on shutdown ...

Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe: - the big change is the cleanup from Mike Christie, cleaning up our uses of command types and modified flags. This is what will throw some merge conflicts - regression fix for the above for btrfs, from Vincent - following up to the above, better packing of struct request from Christoph - a 2038 fix for blktrace from Arnd - a few trivial/spelling fixes from Bart Van Assche - a front merge check fix from Damien, which could cause issues on SMR drives - Atari partition fix from Gabriel - convert cfq to highres timers, since jiffies isn't granular enough for some devices these days. From Jan and Jeff - CFQ priority boost fix idle classes, from me - cleanup series from Ming, improving our bio/bvec iteration - a direct issue fix for blk-mq from Omar - fix for plug merging not involving the IO scheduler, like we do for other types of merges. From Tahsin - expose DAX type internally and through sysfs.

2016-07-24libnvdimm-btt: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call ↵Markus Elfring
"__nd_device_register" The __nd_device_register() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

2016-07-23nfit, libnvdimm: allow an ARS scrub to be triggered on demandVishal Verma
Normally, an ARS (Address Range Scrub) only happens at boot/initialization time. There can however arise situations where a bus-wide rescan is needed - notably, in the case of discovering a latent media error, we should do a full rescan to figure out what other sectors are bad, and thus potentially avoid triggering an mce on them in the future. Also provide a sysfs trigger to start a bus-wide scrub. Cc: Rafael J.

2016-07-23libnvdimm: register nvdimm_bus devices with an nd_bus driverDan Williams
A recent effort to add a new nvdimm bus provider attribute highlighted a race between interrogating nvdimm_bus->nd_desc and nvdimm_bus tear down. The typical way to handle these races is to take the device_lock() in the attribute method and validate that the device is still active. In order for a device to be 'active' it needs to be associated with a driver. So, we create the small boilerplate for a driver and register nvdimm_bus devices on the 'nvdimm_bus_type' bus. A result of this change is that ndbusX devices now appear under /sys/bus/nd/devices. In fact this makes /sys/class/nd somewhat redundant, but removing that will need to take a long deprecation period given its use by ndctl binaries in the field. This change naturally pulls code from drivers/nvdimm/core.c to drivers/nvdimm/bus.c, so it is a nice code organization clean-up as well.

2016-07-20block: add QUEUE_FLAG_DAX for devices to advertise their DAX supportToshi Kani
Currently, presence of direct_access() in block_device_operations indicates support of DAX on its block device. Because block_device_operations is instantiated with 'const', this DAX capablity may not be enabled conditinally. In preparation for supporting DAX to device-mapper devices, add QUEUE_FLAG_DAX to request_queue flags to advertise their DAX support. This will allow to set the DAX capability based on how mapped device is composed.

2016-07-12pmem: kill __pmem address spaceDan Williams
The __pmem address space was meant to annotate codepaths that touch persistent memory and need to coordinate a call to wmb_pmem(). Now that wmb_pmem() is gone, there is little need to keep this annotation.

2016-07-11libnvdimm, pmem: use REQ_FUA, REQ_FLUSH for nvdimm_flush()Dan Williams
Given that nvdimm_flush() has higher overhead than wmb_pmem() (pointer chasing through nd_region), and that we otherwise assume a platform has ADR capability when flush hints are not present, move nvdimm_flush() to REQ_FLUSH context. Note that we still arrange for nvdimm_flush() to be called even in the ADR case. We need at least once wmb() fence to push buffered writes in the cpu out to the ADR protected domain.
