As nfit_mem->family always equals NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL, no subsequent
DSM call will succeed for NVDIMM_FAMILY_HPE1 or any other
family.
I don't have a fix as of yet, but wanted to make you aware of
the problem.
Could we try the all known UUIDs looking for one that returns a non-zero
value?
Yes, that seems like the way forward, and also make not finding a DSM
family non-fatal.
Actually, all we need is that last bit... Jerry, Xiao, can you try
the attached patch on top for v4.7-rc6 to see if it works in both HPe
and QEMU 2.6 environments respectively?
Dan,
I applied this patch on top of the SLES 12 sp2 kernel I was testing
with last night.
The proposed patch below works for HPE nvdimms.
Thanks Jerry, I'll add your Tested-by and push it for v4.7-final after
Xiao has a chance to confirm.
I was able to verify this on QEMU 2.6.
Thank you, Dan. :)
