      libnvdimm: release ida resources · b354aba0
      Dan Williams authored
      ida instances allocate some internal memory for ->free_bitmap in
      addition to the base 'struct ida'.  Use ida_destroy() to release that
      memory at module_exit().

      Revert "block: enable dax for raw block devices" · acc93d30
      Dan Williams authored
      This reverts commit 5a023cdb.
      
      The functionality is superseded by the new "Device DAX" facility.

      /dev/dax, core: file operations and dax-mmap · dee41079
      Dan Williams authored
      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.

      /dev/dax, pmem: direct access to persistent memory · ab68f262
      Dan Williams authored
      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.

       "A few fixes for the current series. This contains:
      
         - Two fixes for NVMe:
      
           One fixes a reset race that can be triggered by repeated
           insert/removal of the module.
      
           The other fixes an issue on some platforms, where we get probe
           timeouts since legacy interrupts isn't working.  This used not to
           be a problem since we had the worker thread poll for completions,
           but since that was killed off, it means those poor souls can't
           successfully probe their NVMe device.  Use a proper IRQ check and
           probe (msi-x -> msi ->legacy), like most other drivers to work
           around this.  Both from Keith.
      
         - A loop corruption issue with offset in iters, from Ming Lei.
      
         - A fix for not having the partition stat per cpu ref count
           initialized before sending out the KOBJ_ADD, which could cause user
           space to access the counter prior to initialization.  Also from
           Ming Lei.

        In the v4.4 cycle, we relaxed the requirement for assigning

        We haven't seen explicit complaints about this (most use cases don't
