In this series, dax recovery code path is independent of that of
normal write. Competing dax recovery threads are serialized,
racing read threads are guaranteed not overlapping with the
recovery process.
In this phase, the recovery granularity is page, future patch
will explore recovery in finer granularity.
Changelog:
v6 -> v7:
. incorporated comments from Christoph, and picked up a reviewed-by
. add x86@xxxxxxxxxx per Boris
. discovered pmem firmware doesn't reliably handle a request to clear
poison over a large range (such as 2M), hence worked around the
the feature by limiting the size of the requested range to kernel
page size.
v5->v6:
. per Christoph, move set{clear}_mce_nospec() inline functions out
of include/linux/set_memory.h and into arch/x86/mm/pat/set_memory.c
file, so that no need to export _set_memory_present().
. per Christoph, ratelimit warning message in pmem_do_write()
. per both Christoph and Dan, switch back to adding a flag to
dax_direct_access() instead of embedding the flag in kvaddr
. suggestions from Christoph for improving code structure and
readability
. per Dan, add .recovery_write to dev_pagemap.ops instead of adding
it to dax_operations, such that, the DM layer doesn't need to be
involved explicitly in dax recoovery write
. per Dan, is_bad_pmem() takes a seqlock, so no need to place it
under recovery_lock.
Many thanks for both reviewers!
v4->v5:
Fixed build errors reported by kernel test robot
v3->v4:
Rebased to v5.17-rc1-81-g0280e3c58f92
