      acpi/nfit: Add support of NVDIMM memory error notification in ACPI 6.2 · 56b47fe6
      Toshi Kani authored
      ACPI 6.2 defines a new ACPI notification value to NVDIMM Root Device
      in Table 5-169.
      
       0x81 Unconsumed Uncorrectable Memory Error Detected
            Used to pro-actively notify OSPM of uncorrectable memory errors
            detected (for example a memory scrubbing engine that continuously
            scans the NVDIMMs memory). This is an optional notification. Only
            locations that were mapped in to SPA by the platform will generate
            a notification.
      
      Add support of this notification value by initiating an ARS scan. This
      will find new error locations and add their badblocks information.

      libnvdimm, pmem: Add sysfs notifications to badblocks · 975750a9
      Toshi Kani authored
      Sysfs "badblocks" information may be updated during run-time that:
       - MCE, SCI, and sysfs "scrub" may add new bad blocks
       - Writes and ioctl() may clear bad blocks
      
      Add support to send sysfs notifications to sysfs "badblocks" file
      under region and pmem directories when their badblocks information
      is re-evaluated (but is not necessarily changed) during run-time.

      tools/testing/nvdimm: fix nfit_test buffer overflow · a117699c
      Yasunori Goto authored
      The root cause of panic is the num_pm of nfit_test1 is wrong.
      Though 1 is specified for num_pm at nfit_test_init(), it must be 2,
      because nfit_test1->spa_set[] array has 2 elements.
      
      Since the array is smaller than expected, the driver breaks other area.
      (it is often the link list of devres).
      
      As a result, panic occurs like the following example.
      
          CPU: 4 PID: 2233 Comm: lt-libndctl Tainted: G           O    4.12.0-rc1+ #12

      libnvdimm, label: switch to using v1.2 labels by default · 8990cdf1
      Dan Williams authored
      The rules for which version of the label specification are in effect at
      any given point in time are as follows:
      
      1/ If a DIMM has an existing / valid index block then the version
         specified is used regardless if it is a previous version.
      
      2/ By default when the kernel is initializing new index blocks the
         latest specification version (v1.2 at time of writing) is used.
      
      3/ An environment that wants to force create v1.1 label-sets must
         arrange for userspace to disable all active regions / namespaces /
         dimms and write a valid set of v1.1 index blocks to the dimms.

      libnvdimm, label: add address abstraction identifiers · b3fde74e
      Dan Williams authored
      Starting with v1.2 labels, 'address abstractions' can be hinted via an
      address abstraction id that implies an info-block format. The standard
      address abstraction in the specification is the v2 format of the
      Block-Translation-Table (BTT). Support for that is saved for a later
      patch, for now we add support for the Linux supported address
      abstractions BTT (v1), PFN, and DAX.
      
      The new 'holder_class' attribute for namespace devices is added for
      tooling to specify the 'abstraction_guid' to store in the namespace label.
      For v1.1 labels this field is undefined and any setting of
      'holder_class' away from the default 'none' value will only have effect
      until the driver is unloaded. Setting 'holder_class' requires that
      whatever device tries to claim the namespace must be of the specified
      class.

      libnvdimm, label: update 'nlabel' and 'position' handling for local namespaces · 3934d841
      Dan Williams authored
      The v1.2 namespace label specification requires 'nlabel' and 'position'
      to be valid for the first ("lowest dpa") label in the set. It also
      requires all non-first labels to set those fields to 0xff.
      
      Linux does not much care if these values are correct, because we can
      just trust the count of labels with the matching uuid like the v1.1
      case. However, we set them correctly in case other environments care.

      libnvdimm, label: populate 'isetcookie' for blk-aperture namespaces · 8f2bc243
      Dan Williams authored
      Starting with the v1.2 definition of namespace labels, the isetcookie
      field is populated and validated for blk-aperture namespaces. This adds
      some safety against inadvertent copying of namespace labels from one
      DIMM-device to another.

      libnvdimm, label: populate the type_guid property for v1.2 namespaces · faec6f8a
      Dan Williams authored
      The type_guid refers to the "Address Range Type GUID" for the region
      backing a namespace as defined the ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface
      Table). This 'type' identifier specifies an access mechanism for the
      given namespace. This capability replaces the confusing usage of the
      'NSLABEL_FLAG_LOCAL' flag to indicate a block-aperture-mode namespace.

      libnvdimm, label: honor the lba size specified in v1.2 labels · f979b13c
      Dan Williams authored
      Previously we only honored the lba size for blk-aperture mode
      namespaces. For pmem namespaces the lba size was just assumed to be 512.
      With the new v1.2 label definition and compatibility with other
      operating environments, the ->lbasize property is now respected for pmem
      namespaces.

      The interleave-set-cookie algorithm is extended to incorporate all the
      same components that are used to generate an nvdimm unique-id. For
      backwards compatibility we still maintain the old v1.1 definition.

      libnvdimm, label: add v1.2 nvdimm label definitions · 564e871a
      Dan Williams authored
      In support of improved interoperability between operating systems and pre-boot
      environments the Intel proposed NVDIMM Namespace Specification [1], has been
      adopted and modified to the the UEFI 2.7 NVDIMM Label Protocol [2].
      
      Update the definitions of the namespace label data structures so that the new
      format can be supported alongside the existing label format.
      
      The new specification changes the default label size to 256 bytes, so
      everywhere that relied on sizeof(struct nd_namespace_label) must now use the
      sizeof_namespace_label() helper.
      
      There should be no functional differences from these changes as the
      default is still the v1.1 128-byte format. Future patches will move the
      default to the v1.2 definition.
