[GIT PULL] libnvdimm, nfit: fixes for 4.5-rc6

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Linus, please pull from:

+AKA- git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm libnvdimm-fixes

...to receive:

1/ Two fixes for compatibility with the ACPI 6.1 specification.
+AKA-Without these fixes multi-interface DIMMs will fail to be probed, and
address range scrub commands to find memory errors will give results
that the kernel will mis-interpret. +AKA-For multi-interface DIMMs Linux
will accept either the original 6.0 implementation or 6.1. +AKA-For address
range scrub we'll only support 6.1 since ACPI formalized this DSM
differently than the original example +AFs-1+AF0- implemented in v4.2. +AKA-The
expectation is that production systems will only ever ship the ACPI 6.1
address range scrub command definition.+AKA-

2/ The wider async address range scrub work targeting 4.6 discovered
that the original synchronous implementation in 4.5 is not sizing its
return buffer correctly.

3/ Arnd caught that my recent fix to the size of the pfn+AF8-t flags missed
updating the flags variable used in the pmem driver.

4/ Toshi found that we mishandle the memremap() return value in
devm+AF8-memremap().

This branch has received a clean build success notification from the
kbuild robot across 105 configs.

+AKAAoACgAKA-nvdimm: use 'u64' for pfn flags
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-A recent bugfix changed pfn+AF8-t to always be 64-bit wide, but did not
+AKAAoACgAKA-change the code in pmem.c, which is now broken on 32-bit architectures
+AKAAoACgAKA-as reported by gcc:
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-In file included from ../drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c:28:0:
+AKAAoACgAKA-drivers/nvdimm/pmem.c: In function 'pmem+AF8-alloc':
+AKAAoACgAKA-include/linux/pfn+AF8-t.h:15:17: error: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type +AFs--Werror+AD0-overflow+AF0-
+AKAAoACgAKAAoAAj-define PFN+AF8-DEV (1ULL +ADwAPA- (BITS+AF8-PER+AF8-LONG+AF8-LONG - 3))
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-This changes the intermediate pfn+AF8-flags in struct pmem+AF8-device to
+AKAAoACgAKA-be 64 bit wide as well, so they can store the flags correctly.

+AKAAoACgAKA-devm+AF8-memremap: Fix error value when memremap failed
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-devm+AF8-memremap() returns an ERR+AF8-PTR() value in case of error.
+AKAAoACgAKA-However, it returns NULL when memremap() failed.+AKAAoA-This causes
+AKAAoACgAKA-the caller, such as the pmem driver, to proceed and oops later.
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-Change devm+AF8-memremap() to return ERR+AF8-PTR(-ENXIO) when memremap()
+AKAAoACgAKA-failed.

+AKAAoACgAKA-nfit: update address range scrub commands to the acpi 6.1 format
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-The original format of these commands from the +ACI-NVDIMM DSM Interface
+AKAAoACgAKA-Example+ACI- +AFs-1+AF0- are superseded by the ACPI 6.1 definition of the +ACI-NVDIMM Root
+AKAAoACgAKA-Device +AF8-DSMs+ACI- +AFs-2+AF0-.

+AKAAoACgAKA-Changes include:
+AKAAoACgAKA-1/ New 'restart' fields in ars+AF8-status, unfortunately these are
+AKAAoACgAKAAoACgAKA-implemented in the middle of the existing definition so this change
+AKAAoACgAKAAoACgAKA-is not backwards compatible.+AKAAoA-The expectation is that shipping
+AKAAoACgAKAAoACgAKA-platforms will only ever support the ACPI 6.1 definition.
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-2/ New status values for ars+AF8-start ('busy') and ars+AF8-status ('overflow').

+AKAAoACgAKA-libnvdimm, tools/testing/nvdimm: fix 'ars+AF8-status' output buffer sizing
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-Use the output length specified in the command to size the receive
+AKAAoACgAKA-buffer rather than the arbitrary 4K limit.
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-This bug was hiding the fact that the ndctl implementation of
+AKAAoACgAKA-ndctl+AF8-bus+AF8-cmd+AF8-new+AF8-ars+AF8-status() was not specifying an output buffer size.

+AKAAoACgAKA-nfit: fix multi-interface dimm handling, acpi6.1 compatibility
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-ACPI 6.1 clarified that multi-interface dimms require multiple control
+AKAAoACgAKA-region entries (DCRs) per dimm.+AKAAoA-Previously we were assuming that a
+AKAAoACgAKA-control region is only present when block-data-windows are present.
+AKAAoACgAKA-This implementation was done with an eye to be compatibility with the
+AKAAoACgAKA-looser ACPI 6.0 interpretation of this table.
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-1/ When coalescing the memory device (MEMDEV) tables for a single dimm,
+AKAAoACgAKA-coalesce on device+AF8-handle rather than control region index.
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-2/ Whenever we disocver a control region with non-zero block windows
+AKAAoACgAKA-re-scan for block-data-window (BDW) entries.
+AKAAoACgAKA-
+AKAAoACgAKA-We may need to revisit this if a DIMM ever implements a format interface
+AKAAoACgAKA-outside of blk or pmem, but that is not on the foreseeable horizon.
