Allow arch to provide the supported alignments and use hugepage alignment only if we support hugepage. Right now we depend on compile time configs whereas this patch switch this to runtime discovery. Architectures like ppc64 can have THP enabled in code, but then can have hugepage size disabled by the hypervisor. This allows us to create dax devices with PAGE_SIZE alignment in this case. Existing dax namespace with alignment larger than PAGE_SIZE will fail to initialize in this specific case. We still allow fsdax namespace initialization. With respect to identifying whether to enable hugepage fault for a dax device, if THP is enabled during compile, we default to taking hugepage fault and in dax fault handler if we find the fault size > alignment we retry with PAGE_SIZE fault size. This also addresses the below failure scenario on ppc64 ndctl create-namespace --mode=devdax | grep align "align":16777216, "align":16777216 cat /sys/devices/ndbus0/region0/dax0.0/supported_alignments 65536 16777216 daxio.static-debug -z -o /dev/dax0.0 Bus error (core dumped) $ dmesg | tail lpar: Failed hash pte insert with error -4 hash-mmu: mm: Hashing failure !

Namespaces created with PFN_MODE_PMEM mode stores struct page in the reserve block area. We need to make sure we account for the right struct page size while doing this. Instead of directly depending on sizeof(struct page) which can change based on different kernel config option, use the max struct page size (64) while calculating the reserve block area. This makes sure pmem device can be used across kernels built with different configs. If the above assumption of max struct page size change, we need to update the reserve block allocation space for new namespaces created. Signed-off-by:

Users have reported intermittent occurrences of DIMM initialization failures due to duplicate allocations of address capacity detected in the labels, or errors of the form below, both have the same root cause. nd namespace1.4: failed to track label: 0 WARNING: CPU: 17 PID: 1381 at drivers/nvdimm/label.c:863 RIP: 0010:__pmem_label_update+0x56c/0x590 [libnvdimm] Call Trace: ? nd_pmem_namespace_label_update+0xd6/0x160 [libnvdimm] nd_pmem_namespace_label_update+0xd6/0x160 [libnvdimm] uuid_store+0x17e/0x190 [libnvdimm] kernfs_fop_write+0xf0/0x1a0 vfs_write+0xb7/0x1b0 ksys_write+0x57/0xd0 do_syscall_64+0x60/0x210 Unfortunately those reports were typically with a busy parallel namespace creation / destruction loop making it difficult to see the components of the bug. However, Jane provided a simple reproducer using the work-in-progress sub-section implementation. When ndctl is reconfiguring a namespace it may take an existing defunct / disabled namespace and reconfigure it with a new uuid and other parameters. Critically namespace_update_uuid() takes existing address resources and renames them for the new namespace to use / reconfigure as it sees fit. The bug is that this rename only happens in the resource tracking tree. Existing labels with the old uuid are not reaped leading to a scenario where multiple active labels reference the same span of address range. Teach namespace_update_uuid() to flag any references to the old uuid for reaping at the next label update attempt.

The following warning: ACPI0012:00: security event setup failed: -19 ...is meant to capture exceptional failures of sysfs_get_dirent(), however it will also fail in the common case when security support is disabled. A few issues: 1/ A dev_warn() report for a common case is too chatty 2/ The setup of this notifier is generic, no need for it to be driven from the nfit driver, it can exist completely in the core. 3/ If it fails for any reason besides security support being disabled, that's fatal and should abort DIMM activation. Userspace may hang if it never gets overwrite notifications. 4/ The dirent needs to be released. Move the call to the core 'dimm' driver, make it conditional on security support being active, make it fatal for the exceptional case, add the missing sysfs_put() at device disable time.

Persistent memory, as described by the ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table), is the first known instance of a memory range described by a unique "target" proximity domain. Where "initiator" and "target" proximity domains is an approach that the ACPI HMAT (Heterogeneous Memory Attributes Table) uses to described the unique performance properties of a memory range relative to a given initiator (e.g. CPU or DMA device). Currently the numa-node for a /dev/pmemX block-device or /dev/daxX.Y char-device follows the traditional notion of 'numa-node' where the attribute conveys the closest online numa-node. That numa-node attribute is useful for cpu-binding and memory-binding processes *near* the device. However, when the memory range backing a 'pmem', or 'dax' device is onlined (memory hot-add) the memory-only-numa-node representing that address needs to be differentiated from the set of online nodes. In other words, the numa-node association of the device depends on whether you can bind processes *near* the cpu-numa-node in the offline device-case, or bind process *on* the memory-range directly after the backing address range is onlined. Allow for the case that platform firmware describes persistent memory with a unique proximity domain, i.e. when it is distinct from the proximity of DRAM and CPUs that are on the same socket. Plumb the Linux numa-node translation of that proximity through the libnvdimm region device to namespaces that are in device-dax mode. With this in place the proposed kmem driver [1] can optionally discover a unique numa-node number for the address range as it transitions the memory from an offline state managed by a device-driver to an online memory range managed by the core-mm.

This patch splits the initialization of the label data into two functions. One for doing the init, and another for reading the actual configuration data. The idea behind this is that by doing this we create a symmetry between the getting and setting of config data in that we have a function for both. In addition it will make it easier for us to identify the bits that are related to init versus the pieces that are a wrapper for reading data from the ACPI interface. So for example by splitting things out like this it becomes much more obvious that we were performing checks that weren't necessarily related to the set/get operations such as relying on ndd->data being present when the set and get ops should not care about a locally cached copy of the label area.

Add and use a new op_stat_group() function for indexing partition stat fields rather than indexing them by rq_data_dir() or bio_data_dir(). This function works similarly to op_is_sync() in that it takes the request::cmd_flags or bio::bi_opf flags and determines which stats should et updated. In addition, the second parameter to generic_start_io_acct() and generic_end_io_acct() is now a REQ_OP rather than simply a read or write bit and it uses op_stat_group() on the parameter to determine the stat group. Note that the partition in_flight counts are not part of the per-cpu statistics and as such are not indexed via this function. It's now indexed by op_is_write(). tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17. Updated to pass around REQ_OP. Signed-off-by:

It happens often while I'm preparing a patch for a block driver that I'm wondering: is a definition of SECTOR_SIZE and/or SECTOR_SHIFT available for this driver? Do I have to introduce definitions of these constants before I can use these constants? To avoid this confusion, move the existing definitions of SECTOR_SIZE and SECTOR_SHIFT into the <linux/blkdev.h> header file such that these become available for all block drivers. Make the SECTOR_SIZE definition in the uapi msdos_fs.h header file conditional to avoid that including that header file after <linux/blkdev.h> causes the compiler to complain about a SECTOR_SIZE redefinition. Note: the SECTOR_SIZE / SECTOR_SHIFT / SECTOR_BITS definitions have not been removed from uapi header files nor from NAND drivers in which these constants are used for another purpose than converting block layer offsets and sizes into a number of sectors.

This new interface is similar to how struct device (and many others) work. The caller initializes a 'struct dev_pagemap' as required and calls 'devm_memremap_pages'. This allows the pagemap structure to be embedded in another structure and thus container_of can be used. In this way application specific members can be stored in a containing struct. This will be used by the P2P infrastructure and HMM could probably be cleaned up to use it as well (instead of having it's own, similar 'hmm_devmem_pages_create' function). Signed-off-by:

The old calculation assumed that the label space was 128k and the label size is 128. With v1.2 labels where the label size is 256 this calculation will return zero. We are saved by the fact that the nsindex_size is always pre-initialized from a previous 128 byte assumption and we are lucky that the index sizes turn out the same. Fix this going forward in case we start encountering different geometries of label areas besides 128k. Since the label size can change from one call to the next, drop the caching of nsindex_size.

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code). For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists once per block device. But given that the block layer also does partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is used for said remapping in generic_make_request. Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all over the stack. Signed-off-by:

Currently libnvdimm uses HPAGE_SIZE as the default alignment for DAX and PFN devices. HPAGE_SIZE is the default hugetlbfs page size and when hugetlbfs is disabled it defaults to PAGE_SIZE. Given DAX has more in common with THP than hugetlbfs we should proably be using HPAGE_PMD_SIZE, but this is undefined when THP is disabled so lets just give it a new name. The other usage of HPAGE_SIZE in libnvdimm is when determining how large the altmap should be. For the reasons mentioned above it doesn't really make sense to use HPAGE_SIZE here either. PMD_SIZE seems to be safe to use in generic code and it happens to match the vmemmap allocation block on x86 and Power. It's still a hack, but it's a slightly nicer hack. Signed-off-by:

Starting with v1.2 labels, 'address abstractions' can be hinted via an address abstraction id that implies an info-block format. The standard address abstraction in the specification is the v2 format of the Block-Translation-Table (BTT). Support for that is saved for a later patch, for now we add support for the Linux supported address abstractions BTT (v1), PFN, and DAX. The new 'holder_class' attribute for namespace devices is added for tooling to specify the 'abstraction_guid' to store in the namespace label. For v1.1 labels this field is undefined and any setting of 'holder_class' away from the default 'none' value will only have effect until the driver is unloaded. Setting 'holder_class' requires that whatever device tries to claim the namespace must be of the specified class. Cc: Vishal Verma <vishal.l.verma@intel.com> Signed-off-by:

In support of improved interoperability between operating systems and pre-boot environments the Intel proposed NVDIMM Namespace Specification [1], has been adopted and modified to the the UEFI 2.7 NVDIMM Label Protocol [2]. Update the definitions of the namespace label data structures so that the new format can be supported alongside the existing label format. The new specification changes the default label size to 256 bytes, so everywhere that relied on sizeof(struct nd_namespace_label) must now use the sizeof_namespace_label() helper. There should be no functional differences from these changes as the default is still the v1.1 128-byte format. Future patches will move the default to the v1.2 definition.

nsio_rw_bytes can clear media errors, but this cannot be done while we are in an atomic context due to locking within ACPI. From the BTT, ->rw_bytes may be called either from atomic or process context depending on whether the calls happen during initialization or during IO. During init, we want to ensure error clearing happens, and the flag marking process context allows nsio_rw_bytes to do that. When called during IO, we're in atomic context, and error clearing can be skipped. Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Signed-off-by:

The interleave-set cookie is a sum that sanity checks the composition of an interleave set has not changed from when the namespace was initially created. The checksum is calculated by sorting the DIMMs by their location in the interleave-set. The comparison for the sort must be 64-bit wide, not byte-by-byte as performed by memcmp() in the broken case. Fix the implementation to accept correct cookie values in addition to the Linux "memcmp" order cookies, but only allow correct cookies to be generated going forward. It does mean that namespaces created by third-party-tooling, or created by newer kernels with this fix, will not validate on older kernels. However, there are a couple mitigating conditions: 1/ platforms with namespace-label capable NVDIMMs are not widely available. 2/ interleave-sets with a single-dimm are by definition not affected (nothing to sort). This covers the QEMU-KVM NVDIMM emulation case. The cookie stored in the namespace label will be fixed by any write the namespace label, the most straightforward way to achieve this is to write to the "alt_name" attribute of a namespace in sysfs.

Platforms like QEMU-KVM implement an NFIT table and label DSMs. However, since that environment does not define an aliased configuration, the labels are currently ignored and the kernel registers a single full-sized pmem-namespace per region. Now that the kernel supports sub-divisions of pmem regions the labels have a purpose. Arrange for the labels to be honored when we find an existing / valid namespace index block.

nd_iostat_start() and nd_iostat_end() implement the same functionality that generic_start_io_acct() and generic_end_io_acct() already provide. Change nd_iostat_start() and nd_iostat_end() to call the generic iostat interfaces. There is no change in the nd interfaces. Signed-off-by:

In preparation for enabling multiple namespaces per pmem region, convert the label tracking to use a linked list. In particular this will allow select_pmem_id() to move labels from the unvalidated state to the validated state. Currently we only track one validated set per-region. Signed-off-by:

Before we add more libnvdimm-private fields to nd_mapping make it clear which parameters are input vs libnvdimm internals. Use struct nd_mapping_desc instead of struct nd_mapping in nd_region_desc and make struct nd_mapping private to libnvdimm. Signed-off-by:

The definition of the flush hint table as: void __iomem *flush_wpq[0][0]; ...passed the unit test, but is broken as flush_wpq[0][1] and flush_wpq[1][0] refer to the same entry. Fix this to use a helper that calculates a slot in the table based on the geometry of flush hints in the region. This is important to get right since virtualization solutions use this mechanism to trigger hypervisor flushes to platform persistence. Reported-by:

'ndctl list --buses --dimms' does not list any NVDIMM-Ns since they are considered as idle. ndctl checks if any driver is attached to nmem device. nvdimm_probe() always fails in nvdimm_init_nsarea() since NVDIMM-Ns do not implement optinal ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_DATA command. Change nvdimm_probe() to accept the case that the CONFIG_DATA command is not implemented for NVDIMM-Ns. The driver attaches without ndd, which keeps it no-op to the device. Reported-by:

When the NFIT provides multiple flush hint addresses per-dimm it is expressing that the platform is capable of processing multiple flush requests in parallel. There is some fixed cost per flush request, let the cost be shared in parallel on multiple cpus. Since there may not be enough flush hint addresses for each cpu to have one, keep a per-cpu index of the last used hint, hash it with current pid, and assume that access pattern and scheduler randomness will keep the flush-hint usage somewhat staggered across cpus.
