Keith Busch 12e3129e29 libnvdimm: Use max contiguous area for namespace size
This patch will find the max contiguous area to determine the largest
pmem namespace size that can be created. If the requested size exceeds
the largest available, ENOSPC error will be returned.

This fixes the allocation underrun error and wrong error return code
that have otherwise been observed as the following kernel warning:

Dan Williams e7c5a571a8 libnvdimm, dimm: handle EACCES failures from label reads
The new support for the standard _LSR and _LSW methods neglected to also
update the nvdimm_init_config_data() and nvdimm_set_config_data() to
return the translated error code from failed commands. This precision is
necessary because the locked status that was previously returned on
ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_SIZE commands is now returned on
ND_CMD_{GET,SET}_CONFIG_DATA commands.

If the kernel misses this indication it can inadvertently fall back to
label-less mode when it should otherwise avoid all access to locked
regions.

Dynamic debug can be instructed to add the function name to the debug

modules to do it again. If a user decides to add the +f switch for
libnvdimm's dynamic debug this results in double prints of the function

Dan Williams efbf6f50ad libnvdimm: introduce 'flags' attribute for DIMM 'lock' and 'alias' status
Given that we now how have two mechanisms for a DIMM to indicate that it
is locked:

    * NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL 'get_config_size' _DSM command

    * ACPI 6.2 Label Storage Read / Write commands

...export the generic libnvdimm DIMM status in a new 'flags' attribute.

This attribute can also reflect the 'alias' state which indicates
whether the nvdimm core is enforcing labels for aliased-region-capacity
that the given dimm is an interleave-set member.

Michal Hocko 752ade68cb treewide: use kv[mz]alloc* rather than opencoded variants
There are many code paths opencoding kvmalloc.  Let's use the helper
instead.  The main difference to kvmalloc is that those users are
usually not considering all the aspects of the memory allocator.  E.g.
allocation requests <= 32kB (with 4kB pages) are basically never failing
and invoke OOM killer to satisfy the allocation.  This sounds too
disruptive for something that has a reasonable fallback - the vmalloc.
On the other hand those requests might fallback to vmalloc even when the
memory allocator would succeed after several more reclaim/compaction
attempts previously.  There is no guarantee something like that happens
though.

This patch converts many of those places to kv[mz]alloc* helpers because
they are more conservative.

Dan Williams fe514739d8 libnvdimm: fix blk free space accounting
Commit a1f3e4d6a0 "libnvdimm, region: update nd_region_available_dpa()
for multi-pmem support" reworked blk dpa (DIMM Physical Address)
accounting to comprehend multiple pmem namespace allocations aliasing
with a given blk-dpa range.

The following call trace is a result of failing to account for allocated
blk capacity.

 WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2433 at tools/testing/nvdimm/../../../drivers/nvdimm/names

If a given blk-dpa allocation does not alias with any pmem ranges then
the full allocation should be accounted as busy space, not the size of
the current pmem contribution to the region.

The thinkos that led to this confusion was not realizing that the struct
resource management is already guaranteeing no collisions between pmem
allocations and blk allocations on the same dimm. Also, we do not try to
support blk allocations in aliased pmem holes.

This patch also fixes a case where the available blk goes negative.

    BLK-space is valid as long as it does not precede a PMEM
    allocation in a given region. PMEM-space must be contiguous
    and adjacent to an existing existing allocation (if one

Dan Williams a1f3e4d6a0 libnvdimm, region: update nd_region_available_dpa() for multi-pmem support
The free dpa (dimm-physical-address) space calculation reports how much
free space is available with consideration for aliased BLK + PMEM
regions.  Recall that BLK capacity is allocated from high addresses and
PMEM is allocated from low addresses in their respective regions.

nd_region_available_dpa() accounts for the fact that the largest
encroachment (lowest starting address) into PMEM capacity by a BLK
allocation limits the available capacity to that point, regardless if
there is BLK allocation hole at a higher address.  Similarly, for the
multi-pmem case we need to track the largest encroachment (highest
 ending address) of a PMEM allocation in BLK capacity regardless of
whether there is an allocation hole that a BLK allocation could fill at
a lower address.

Ross Zwisler 047fc8a1f9 libnvdimm, nfit, nd_blk: driver for BLK-mode access persistent memory
The libnvdimm implementation handles allocating dimm address space (DPA)
between PMEM and BLK mode interfaces.  After DPA has been allocated from
a BLK-region to a BLK-namespace the nd_blk driver attaches to handle I/O
as a struct bio based block device. Unlike PMEM, BLK is required to
handle platform specific details like mmio register formats and memory
controller interleave.  For this reason the libnvdimm generic nd_blk
driver calls back into the bus provider to carry out the I/O.

This initial implementation handles the BLK interface defined by the
ACPI 6 NFIT [1] and the NVDIMM DSM Interface Example [2] composed from
DCR (dimm control region), BDW (block data window), IDT (interleave
descriptor) NFIT structures and the hardware register format.

A blk label set describes a namespace comprised of one or more
discontiguous dpa ranges on a single dimm.  They may alias with one or

This is the runtime/volatile configuration infrastructure for sysfs
manipulation of 'alt_name', 'uuid', 'size', and 'sector_size'.  A later
patch will make these settings persistent by writing back the label(s).

Unlike pmem namespaces, multiple blk namespaces can be created per

(unconfigured child of a parent blk region) is instantiated.  As long as
a region has 'available_size' != 0 new child namespaces may be created.

Dan Williams eaf961536e libnvdimm, nfit: add interleave-set state-tracking infrastructure
On platforms that have firmware support for reading/writing per-dimm
label space, a portion of the dimm may be accessible via an interleave
set PMEM mapping in addition to the dimm's BLK (block-data-window
aperture(s)) interface.  A label, stored in a "configuration data
region" on the dimm, disambiguates which dimm addresses are accessed
through which exclusive interface.

Add infrastructure that allows the kernel to block modifications to a
label in the set while any member dimm is active.  Note that this is
meant only for enforcing "no modifications of active labels" via the
coarse ioctl command.  Adding/deleting namespaces from an active
interleave set is always possible via sysfs.

Another aspect of tracking interleave sets is tracking their integrity
when DIMMs in a set are physically re-ordered.  For this purpose we
generate an "interleave-set cookie" that can be recorded in a label and
validated against the current configuration.  It is the bus provider
implementation's responsibility to calculate the interleave set cookie

Dan Williams 4d88a97aa9 libnvdimm, nvdimm: dimm driver and base libnvdimm device-driver infrastructure
* Implement the device-model infrastructure for loading modules and
  attaching drivers to nvdimm devices.  This is a simple association of a
  nd-device-type number with a driver that has a bitmask of supported
  device types.  To facilitate userspace bind/unbind operations 'modalias'
  and 'devtype', that also appear in the uevent, are added as generic
  sysfs attributes for all nvdimm devices.  The reason for the device-type
  number is to support sub-types within a given parent devtype, be it a
  vendor-specific sub-type or otherwise.

* The first consumer of this infrastructure is the driver
  for dimm devices.  It simply uses control messages to retrieve and
  store the configuration-data image (label set) from each dimm.

Note: nd_device_register() arranges for asynchronous registration of
      nvdimm bus devices by default.

Dan Williams 62232e45f4 libnvdimm: control (ioctl) messages for nvdimm_bus and nvdimm devices
Most discovery/configuration of the nvdimm-subsystem is done via sysfs
attributes.  However, some nvdimm_bus instances, particularly the
ACPI.NFIT bus, define a small set of messages that can be passed to the
platform.  For convenience we derive the initial libnvdimm-ioctl command
formats directly from the NFIT DSM Interface Example formats.

    ND_CMD_SMART: media health and diagnostics
    ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_SIZE: size of the label space
    ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_DATA: read label space
    ND_CMD_SET_CONFIG_DATA: write label space
    ND_CMD_VENDOR: vendor-specific command passthrough
    ND_CMD_ARS_CAP: report address-range-scrubbing capabilities
    ND_CMD_ARS_START: initiate scrubbing
    ND_CMD_ARS_STATUS: report on scrubbing state
    ND_CMD_SMART_THRESHOLD: configure alarm thresholds for smart events

If a platform later defines different commands than this set it is
straightforward to extend support to those formats.

Most of the commands target a specific dimm.  However, the
address-range-scrubbing commands target the bus.  The 'commands'
attribute in sysfs of an nvdimm_bus, or nvdimm, enumerate the supported
commands for that object.

Dan Williams e6dfb2de47 libnvdimm, nfit: dimm/memory-devices
Enable nvdimm devices to be registered on a nvdimm_bus.  The kernel
assigned device id for nvdimm devicesis dynamic.  If userspace needs a
more static identifier it should consult a provider-specific attribute.
In the case where NFIT is the provider, the 'nmemX/nfit/handle' or
'nmemX/nfit/serial' attributes may be used for this purpose.
