[GIT PULL] libnvdimm for 4.16

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

 



Hi Linus, please pull from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm tags/libnvdimm-for-4.16

...to receive the libnvdimm update for 4.16.

All of these commits have shipped in -next and have received build verification
notices from 0day.

There is one small merge conflict that Michael Ellerman also noted in his pull
request.  In Michael's tree the axonram driver was removed, and in our tree it
received two small updates.  The merge can be trivially resolved by just
keeping the driver removed per Michael's tree.

Regarding the vmem_altmap patches, Michal Hocko took a quick look and while it
wasn't a full review he has future plans to reuse vmem_altmap in wider places
in the memory hotplug code, so he's in favor of getting it properly plumbed.

In case you wanted to inspect them or verify the merge I've also pushed the
three topic branches for this cycle to our nvdimm tree: 

  for-4.16/nfit
  for-4.16/libnvdimm
  for-4.16/dax

  Merge branch 'for-4.16/nfit' into libnvdimm-for-next (2018-02-03 00:26:26 -0700)

----------------------------------------------------------------
libnvdimm for 4.16

* Require struct page by default for filesystem DAX to remove a number of
  surprising failure cases.  This includes failures with direct I/O, gdb and
  fork(2).

* Add support for the new Platform Capabilities Structure added to the NFIT in
  ACPI 6.2a.  This new table tells us whether the platform supports flushing
  of CPU and memory controller caches on unexpected power loss events.

* Revamp vmem_altmap and dev_pagemap handling to clean up code and better
  support future future PCI P2P uses.

* Deprecate the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command whose payload has become
  out-of-sync with recent versions of the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL spec, and
  instead rely on the generic ND_CMD_CALL approach used by the two other IOCTL
  families, NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}.

* Enhance nfit_test so we can test some of the new things added in version 1.6
  of the DSM specification.  This includes testing firmware download and
  simulating the Last Shutdown State (LSS) status.
