Dan Williams a7de92dac9 tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()
A recent flurry of bug discoveries in the nfit driver's DSM marshalling
routine has highlighted the fact that we do not have unit test coverage
for this routine. Add a self-test of acpi_nfit_ctl() routine before
probing the "nfit_test.0" device. This mocks stimulus to acpi_nfit_ctl()
and if any of the tests fail "nfit_test.0" will be unavailable causing
the rest of the tests to not run / fail.

This unit test will also be a place to land reproductions of quirky BIOS
behavior discovered in the field and ensure the kernel does not regress
against implementations it has seen in practice.

Vishal Verma 9ffd6350a1 nfit: don't start a full scrub by default for an MCE
Starting a full Address Range Scrub (ARS) on hitting a memory error
machine check exception may not always be desirable. Provide a way
through sysfs to toggle the behavior between just adding the address
(cache line) where the MCE happened to the poison list and doing a full
scrub. The former (selective insertion of the address) is done
unconditionally.

smart-threshold DSM is received.

Dan Williams ba9c8dd3c2 acpi, nfit: add dimm device notification support
Per "ACPI 6.1 Section 9.20.3" NVDIMM devices, children of the ACPI0012
NVDIMM Root device, can receive health event notifications.

Given that these devices are precluded from registering a notification
handler via acpi_driver.acpi_device_ops (due to no _HID), we use
acpi_install_notify_handler() directly.  The registered handler,
acpi_nvdimm_notify(), triggers a poll(2) event on the nmemX/nfit/flags
sysfs attribute when a health event notification is received.

Dan Williams c14a868a5a tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test for acpi_nfit_notify()
We have had a couple bugs in this implementation in the past and before
we add another ->notify() implementation for nvdimm devices, lets allow
this routine to be exercised via nfit_test.

Rewrite acpi_nfit_notify() in terms of a generic struct device and
acpi_handle parameter, and then implement a mock acpi_evaluate_object()
that returns a _FIT payload.

Vishal Verma c09f12186d acpi, nfit: check for the correct event code in notifications
Commit 209851649d "acpi: nfit: Add support for hot-add" added
support for _FIT notifications, but it neglected to verify the
notification event code matches the one in the ACPI spec for
"NFIT Update". Currently there is only one code in the spec, but
once additional codes are added, older kernels (without this fix)
will misbehave by assuming all event notifications are for an
NFIT Update.

Vishal Verma 6839a6d96f nfit: do an ARS scrub on hitting a latent media error
When a latent (unknown to 'badblocks') error is encountered, it will
trigger a machine check exception. On a system with machine check
recovery, this will only SIGBUS the process(es) which had the bad page
mapped (as opposed to a kernel panic on platforms without machine
check recovery features). In the former case, we want to trigger a full
rescan of that nvdimm bus. This will allow any additional, new errors
to be captured in the block devices' badblocks lists, and offending
operations on them can be trapped early, avoiding machine checks.

This is done by registering a callback function with the
x86_mce_decoder_chain and calling the new ars_rescan functionality with
the address in the mce notificatiion.

Dan Williams bdf97013ce nfit: move to nfit/ sub-directory
With the arrival of x86-machine-check support the nfit driver will add a
(conditionally-compiled) source file.  Prepare for this by moving all
nfit source to drivers/acpi/nfit/.  This is pure code movement, no
functional changes.
