The ndctl unit tests discovered that the dax enabling omitted updates to nd_detach_and_reset(). This routine clears device the configuration when the namespace is detached. Without this clearing userspace may assume that the device is in the process of being configured by another agent in the system. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

Testing the dax-device autodetect support revealed a probe failure with the following result: dax0.1: bad offset: 0x8200000 dax disabled The original pfn-device implementation inferred the alignment from ilog2(offset), now that the alignment is explicit the is_power_of_2() needs replacing with a real sanity check against the recorded alignment. Otherwise the alignment check is useless in the implicit case and only the minimum size of the offset matters. This self-consistency check is further validated by the probe path that will re-check that the offset is large enough to contain all the metadata required to enable the device.

The "Device DAX" core enables dax mappings of performance / feature differentiated memory. An open mapping or file handle keeps the backing struct device live, but new mappings are only possible while the device is enabled. Faults are handled under rcu_read_lock to synchronize with the enabled state of the device. Similar to the filesystem-dax case the backing memory may optionally have struct page entries. However, unlike fs-dax there is no support for private mappings, or mappings that are not backed by media (see use of zero-page in fs-dax). Mappings are always guaranteed to match the alignment of the dax_region. If the dax_region is configured to have a 2MB alignment, all mappings are guaranteed to be backed by a pmd entry. Contrast this determinism with the fs-dax case where pmd mappings are opportunistic. If userspace attempts to force a misaligned mapping, the driver will fail the mmap attempt. See dax_dev_check_vma() for other scenarios that are rejected, like MAP_PRIVATE mappings.

Device DAX is the device-centric analogue of Filesystem DAX (CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory ranges to be allocated and mapped without need of an intervening file system. Device DAX is strict, precise and predictable. Specifically this interface: 1/ Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size (pte, pmd, or pud) set at configuration time. 2/ Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what fault scenarios are supported. For example, by forcing MADV_DONTFORK semantics and omitting MAP_PRIVATE support device-dax guarantees that a mapping always behaves/performs the same once established. It is the "what you see is what you get" access mechanism to differentiated memory vs filesystem DAX which has filesystem specific implementation semantics. Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also targeted for exclusive allocations of performance differentiated memory ranges. This commit is limited to the base device driver infrastructure to associate a dax device with pmem range.

We may want to subdivide a device-dax range into multiple devices so that each can have separate permissions or naming. Reserve 128K of label space by default so we have the capability of making allocation decisions persistent. This reservation is not something we can add later since it would result in the default size of a device-dax range changing between kernel versions.

Device DAX is the device-centric analogue of Filesystem DAX (CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows persistent memory ranges to be allocated and mapped without need of an intervening file system. This initial infrastructure arranges for a libnvdimm pfn-device to be represented as a different device-type so that it can be attached to a driver other than the pmem driver.

There are currently 4 known similar but incompatible definitions of the command sets that can be sent to an NVDIMM through ACPI. It is also clear that future platform generations (ACPI or not) will continue to revise and extend the DIMM command set as new devices and use cases arrive. It is obviously untenable to continue to proliferate divergence of these command definitions, and to that end a standardization process has begun to provide for a unified specification. However, that leaves a problem about what to do with this first generation where vendors are already shipping divergence. The Linux kernel can support these initial diverged platforms without giving platform-firmware free reign to continue to diverge and compound kernel maintenance overhead. The kernel implementation can encourage standardization in two ways: 1/ Require that any function code that userspace wants to send be explicitly white-listed in the implementation. For ACPI this means function codes marked as supported by acpi_check_dsm() may only be invoked if they appear in the white-list. A function must be publicly documented before it is added to the white-list. 2/ The above restrictions can be trivially bypassed by using the "vendor-specific" payload command. However, since vendor-specific commands are by definition not publicly documented and have the potential to corrupt the kernel's view of the dimm state, we provide a toggle to disable vendor-specific operations. Enabling undefined behavior is a policy decision that can be made by the platform owner and encourages firmware implementations to choose public over private command implementations.

Clarify the distinction between "commands", the ioctls userspace calls to request the kernel take some action on a given dimm device, and "_DSMs", the actual function numbers used in the firmware interface to the DIMM. _DSMs are ACPI specific whereas commands are Linux kernel generic. This is in preparation for breaking the 1:1 implicit relationship between the kernel ioctl number space and the firmware specific function numbers.

ACPI 6.1, Table 5-133, updates NVDIMM Control Region Structure as follows. - Valid Fields, Manufacturing Location, and Manufacturing Date are added from reserved range. No change in the structure size. - IDs (SPD values) are stored as arrays of bytes (i.e. big-endian format). The spec clarifies that they need to be represented as arrays of bytes as well. This patch makes the following changes to support this update. - Change the NFIT driver to show SPD ID values in big-endian format. - Change sprintf format to use "0x" instead of "#" since "%#02x" does not prepend '0'. link: http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6_1.pdfSigned-off-by: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hpe.com> Cc: Rafael J.
