Block Aperture Window support was an attempt to layer an error model over PMEM for platforms that did not support machine-check-recovery. However, it was abandoned before it ever shipped, and only ever existed in the ACPI specification. Meanwhile Linux has carried a large pile of dead code for non-shipping infrastructure. For years it has been off to the side out of the way, but now CXL and recent directions with DAX support have the potential to collide with this code. In preparation for adding discontiguous namespace support, a pre-requisite for the nvdimm subsystem to replace device-mapper for striping + concatenation use cases, delete BLK aperture support. On the obscure chance that some hardware vendor shipped support for this mode, note that the driver will still keep BLK space reserved in the label area. So an end user in this case would still have the opportunity to report the regression to get BLK-mode support restored without risking the data they have on that device.

Now, the NFIT specification standardizes not only the description of PMEM, but also -BLK and platform message-passing entry points for control and -configuration. - -For each NVDIMM access method (PMEM, BLK), LIBNVDIMM provides a block -device driver: - - 1.

An access to a corrupted -system-physical-address address causes a CPU exception while an access -to a corrupted address through an BLK-aperture causes that block window -to raise an error status in a register.

They -complicate the implementation because PMEM and BLK alias in DPA space. -Any given DIMM's DPA-range may contribute to one or more -system-physical-address sets of interleaved DIMMs, *and* may also be -accessed in its entirety through its BLK-aperture. Accessing a DPA -through a system-physical-address while simultaneously accessing the -same DPA through a BLK-aperture has undefined results. For this reason, -DIMMs with this dual interface configuration include a DSM function to -store/retrieve a LABEL.
