The changes outside of the typical drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages(). Summary: - Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the kernel's direct map. This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page() operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in 'struct block_device_operations'). For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device memory will arrive in a later kernel. - Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3. Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4. - Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping. - Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as cacheable to improve performance. - Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal 'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor fixes" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (34 commits) libnvdimm, pmem: direct map legacy pmem by default libnvdimm, pmem: 'struct page' for pmem libnvdimm, pfn: 'struct page' provider infrastructure x86, pmem: clarify that ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API implies PMEM mapped WB add devm_memremap_pages mm: ZONE_DEVICE for "device memory" mm: move __phys_to_pfn and __pfn_to_phys to asm/generic/memory_model.h dax: drop size parameter to ->direct_access() nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB nvdimm: change to use generic kvfree() pmem, dax: have direct_access use __pmem annotation dax: update I/O path to do proper PMEM flushing pmem: add copy_from_iter_pmem() and clear_pmem() pmem, x86: clean up conditional pmem includes pmem: remove layer when calling arch_has_wmb_pmem() pmem, x86: move x86 PMEM API to new pmem.h header libnvdimm, e820: make CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY a tristate option pmem: switch to devm_ allocations devres: add devm_memremap libnvdimm, btt: write and validate parent_uuid ...
| * libnvdimm, pmem: direct map legacy pmem by defaultDan Williams2015-08-295-8/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The expectation is that the legacy / non-standard pmem discovery method (e820 type-12) will only ever be used to describe small quantities of persistent memory. Larger capacities will be described via the ACPI NFIT. When "allocate struct page from pmem" support is added this default policy can be overridden by assigning a legacy pmem namespace to a pfn device, however this would be only be necessary if a platform used the legacy mechanism to define a very large range.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Enable the pmem driver to handle PFN device instances. Attaching a pmem namespace to a pfn device triggers the driver to allocate and initialize struct page entries for pmem. Memory capacity for this allocation comes exclusively from RAM for now which is suitable for low PMEM to RAM ratios. This mechanism will be expanded later for setting an "allocate from PMEM" policy.

| * libnvdimm, pfn: 'struct page' provider infrastructureDan Williams2015-08-2912-177/+717
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement the base infrastructure for libnvdimm PFN devices. Similar to BTT devices they take a namespace as a backing device and layer functionality on top. In this case the functionality is reserving space for an array of 'struct page' entries to be handed out through pfn_to_page(). For now this is just the basic libnvdimm-device-model for configuring the base PFN device. As the namespace claiming mechanism for PFN devices is mostly identical to BTT devices drivers/nvdimm/claim.c is created to house the common bits.

| * x86, pmem: clarify that ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API implies PMEM mapped WBDan Williams2015-08-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Given that a write-back (WB) mapping plus non-temporal stores is expected to be the most efficient way to access PMEM, update the definition of ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API to imply arch support for WB-mapped-PMEM. This is needed as a pre-requisite for adding PMEM to the direct map and mapping it with struct page. The above clarification for X86_64 means that memcpy_to_pmem() is permitted to use the non-temporal arch_memcpy_to_pmem() rather than needlessly fall back to default_memcpy_to_pmem() when the pcommit instruction is not available. When arch_memcpy_to_pmem() is not guaranteed to flush writes out of cache, i.e. on older X86_32 implementations where non-temporal stores may just dirty cache, ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API is simply disabled. The default fall back for persistent memory handling remains. Namely, map it with the WT (write-through) cache-type and hope for the best. arch_has_pmem_api() is updated to only indicate whether the arch provides the proper helpers to meet the minimum "writes are visible outside the cache hierarchy after memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem()". Code that cares whether wmb_pmem() actually flushes writes to pmem must now call arch_has_wmb_pmem() directly. Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: "H.

Registering the platform device triggers the device-core machinery to probe for a driver, but that search currently comes up empty. Building the nvdimm-bus registration into the e820_pmem platform device registration in this way forces libnvdimm to be built-in. Instead, convert the built-in portion of CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY to simply register a platform device and move the rest of the logic to the driver for e820_pmem, for the following reasons: 1/ Letting e820_pmem support be a module allows building and testing libnvdimm.ko changes without rebooting 2/ All the normal policy around modules can be applied to e820_pmem (unbind to disable and/or blacklisting the module from loading by default) 3/ Moving the driver to a generic location and converting it to scan "iomem_resource" rather than "e820.map" means any other architecture can take advantage of this simple nvdimm resource discovery mechanism by registering a resource named "Persistent Memory (legacy)" Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a BTT is instantiated on a namespace it must validate the namespace uuid matches the 'parent_uuid' stored in the btt superblock. This property enforces that changing the namespace UUID invalidates all former BTT instances on that storage. For "IO namespaces" that don't have a label or UUID, the parent_uuid is set to zero, and this validation is skipped. For such cases, old BTTs have to be invalidated by forcing the namespace to raw mode, and overwriting the BTT info blocks.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO: (1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag (2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds of error returns. So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A new BLK namespace "seed" device is created whenever the current seed is successfully probed. However, if that namespace is assigned to a BTT it may never directly experience a successful probe as it is a subordinate device to a BTT configuration. The effect of the current code is that no new namespaces can be instantiated, after the seed namespace, to consume available BLK DPA capacity. Fix this by treating a successful BTT probe event as a successful probe event for the backing namespace.

* arch, x86: pmem api for ensuring durability of persistent memory updatesRoss Zwisler2015-06-261-13/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on an original patch by Ross Zwisler [1]. Writes to persistent memory have the potential to be posted to cpu cache, cpu write buffers, and platform write buffers (memory controller) before being committed to persistent media. Provide apis, memcpy_to_pmem(), wmb_pmem(), and memremap_pmem(), to write data to pmem and assert that it is durable in PMEM (a persistent linear address range). A '__pmem' attribute is added so sparse can track proper usage of pointers to pmem. This continues the status quo of pmem being x86 only for 4.2, but reworks to ioremap, and wider implementation of memremap() will enable other archs in 4.3.

* libnvdimm, nfit: handle unarmed dimms, mark namespaces read-onlyDan Williams2015-06-266-3/+61
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upon detection of an unarmed dimm in a region, arrange for descendant BTT, PMEM, or BLK instances to be read-only. A dimm is primarily marked "unarmed" via flags passed by platform firmware (NFIT). The flags in the NFIT memory device sub-structure indicate the state of the data on the nvdimm relative to its energy source or last "flush to persistence". For the most part there is nothing the driver can do but advertise the state of these flags in sysfs and emit a message if firmware indicates that the contents of the device may be corrupted. However, for the case of ACPI_NFIT_MEM_ARMED, the driver can arrange for the block devices incorporating that nvdimm to be marked read-only. This is a safe default as the data is still available and new writes are held off until the administrator either forces read-write mode, or the energy source becomes armed. A 'read_only' attribute is added to REGION devices to allow for overriding the default read-only policy of all descendant block devices. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

* libnvdimm, nfit, nd_blk: driver for BLK-mode access persistent memoryRoss Zwisler2015-06-269-18/+432
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The libnvdimm implementation handles allocating dimm address space (DPA) between PMEM and BLK mode interfaces. After DPA has been allocated from a BLK-region to a BLK-namespace the nd_blk driver attaches to handle I/O as a struct bio based block device. Unlike PMEM, BLK is required to handle platform specific details like mmio register formats and memory controller interleave. For this reason the libnvdimm generic nd_blk driver calls back into the bus provider to carry out the I/O. This initial implementation handles the BLK interface defined by the ACPI 6 NFIT [1] and the NVDIMM DSM Interface Example [2] composed from DCR (dimm control region), BDW (block data window), IDT (interleave descriptor) NFIT structures and the hardware register format.

* nd_btt: atomic sector updatesVishal Verma2015-06-2610-25/+1675
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | BTT stands for Block Translation Table, and is a way to provide power fail sector atomicity semantics for block devices that have the ability to perform byte granularity IO. It relies on the capability of libnvdimm namespace devices to do byte aligned IO. The BTT works as a stacked blocked device, and reserves a chunk of space from the backing device for its accounting metadata. It is a bio-based driver because all IO is done synchronously, and there is no queuing or asynchronous completions at either the device or the driver level. The BTT uses 'lanes' to index into various 'on-disk' data structures, and lanes also act as a synchronization mechanism in case there are more CPUs than available lanes. We did a comparison between two lane lock strategies - first where we kept an atomic counter around that tracked which was the last lane that was used, and 'our' lane was determined by atomically incrementing that. That way, for the nr_cpus > nr_lanes case, theoretically, no CPU would be blocked waiting for a lane. The other strategy was to use the cpu number we're scheduled on to and hash it to a lane number. Theoretically, this could block an IO that could've otherwise run using a different, free lane. But some fio workloads showed that the direct cpu -> lane hash performed faster than tracking 'last lane' - my reasoning is the cache thrash caused by moving the atomic variable made that approach slower than simply waiting out the in-progress IO. This supports the conclusion that the driver can be a very simple bio-based one that does synchronous IOs instead of queuing.

* libnvdimm: infrastructure for btt devicesDan Williams2015-06-2512-94/+821
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NVDIMM namespaces, in addition to accepting "struct bio" based requests, also have the capability to perform byte-aligned accesses. By default only the bio/block interface is used. However, if another driver can make effective use of the byte-aligned capability it can claim namespace interface and use the byte-aligned ->rw_bytes() interface. The BTT driver is the initial first consumer of this mechanism to allow adding atomic sector update semantics to a pmem or blk namespace. This patch is the sysfs infrastructure to allow configuring a BTT instance for a namespace. Enabling that BTT and performing i/o is in a subsequent patch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On platforms that have firmware support for reading/writing per-dimm label space, a portion of the dimm may be accessible via an interleave set PMEM mapping in addition to the dimm's BLK (block-data-window aperture(s)) interface. A label, stored in a "configuration data region" on the dimm, disambiguates which dimm addresses are accessed through which exclusive interface. Add infrastructure that allows the kernel to block modifications to a label in the set while any member dimm is active. Note that this is meant only for enforcing "no modifications of active labels" via the coarse ioctl command. Adding/deleting namespaces from an active interleave set is always possible via sysfs. Another aspect of tracking interleave sets is tracking their integrity when DIMMs in a set are physically re-ordered. For this purpose we generate an "interleave-set cookie" that can be recorded in a label and validated against the current configuration. It is the bus provider implementation's responsibility to calculate the interleave set cookie and attach it to a given region.

ACPI 6 introduces the concept that a given nvdimm may simultaneously offer multiple access modes to its media through direct PMEM load/store access, or windowed BLK mode. Existing nvdimms mostly implement a PMEM interface, some offer a BLK-like mode, but never both as ACPI 6 defines. If an nvdimm is single interfaced, then there is no need for dimm metadata labels. For these devices we can take the region boundaries directly to create a child namespace device (nd_namespace_io).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A "region" device represents the maximum capacity of a BLK range (mmio block-data-window(s)), or a PMEM range (DAX-capable persistent memory or volatile memory), without regard for aliasing. Aliasing, in the dimm-local address space (DPA), is resolved by metadata on a dimm to designate which exclusive interface will access the aliased DPA ranges. Support for the per-dimm metadata/label arrvies is in a subsequent patch. The name format of "region" devices is "regionN" where, like dimms, N is a global ida index assigned at discovery time. This id is not reliable across reboots nor in the presence of hotplug. Look to attributes of the region or static id-data of the sub-namespace to generate a persistent name. However, if the platform configuration does not change it is reasonable to expect the same region id to be assigned at the next boot. "region"s have 2 generic attributes "size", and "mapping"s where: - size: the BLK accessible capacity or the span of the system physical address range in the case of PMEM. - mappingN: a tuple describing a dimm's contribution to the region's capacity in the format (<nmemX>,<dpa>,<size>). For a PMEM-region there will be at least one mapping per dimm in the interleave set. For a BLK-region there is only "mapping0" listing the starting DPA of the BLK-region and the available DPA capacity of that space (matches "size" above). The max number of mappings per "region" is hard coded per the constraints of sysfs attribute groups. That said the number of mappings per region should never exceed the maximum number of possible dimms in the system. If the current number turns out to not be enough then the "mappings" attribute clarifies how many there are supposed to be. "32 should be enough for anybody...".
