ACPI 6.1 added an "NFIT Health Event Notification" for nvdimm devices. When this fires, system software is expected to issue a DSM to retrieve the latest health values. For the NFIT driver this notification arrives as an event on the sysfs 'flags' attribute for an nfit/nvdimm device. The 'flags' attribute reflects the "NVDIMM State Flags" of the "5.2.25.3 NVDIMM Region Mapping Structure", and when read indicates if the platform supports sending health events. --- Dan Williams (3): tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test for acpi_nfit_notify() acpi, nfit: add dimm device notification support tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test for acpi_nvdimm_notify() drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c | 112 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- drivers/acpi/nfit/nfit.h | 7 ++ drivers/nvdimm/dimm_devs.c | 6 ++ include/linux/libnvdimm.h | 1 tools/testing/nvdimm/Kbuild | 1 tools/testing/nvdimm/test/iomap.c | 17 ++++++ tools/testing/nvdimm/test/nfit.c | 64 +++++++++++++++++++-- 7 files changed, 188 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
