      libnvdimm: Set numa_node to NVDIMM devices · 41d7a6d6
      Toshi Kani 提交于
      ACPI NFIT table has System Physical Address Range Structure entries that
      describe a proximity ID of each range when ACPI_NFIT_PROXIMITY_VALID is
      set in the flags.
      
      Change acpi_nfit_register_region() to map a proximity ID to its node ID,
      and set it to a new numa_node field of nd_region_desc, which is then
      conveyed to the nd_region device.
      
      The device core arranges for btt and namespace devices to inherit their
      node from their parent region.

      acpi: Add acpi_map_pxm_to_online_node() · 99759869
      Toshi Kani 提交于
      The kernel initializes CPU & memory's NUMA topology from ACPI
      SRAT table.  Some other ACPI tables, such as NFIT and DMAR, also
      contain proximity IDs for their device's NUMA topology.  This
      information can be used to improve performance of these devices.
      
      This patch introduces acpi_map_pxm_to_online_node(), which is
      similar to acpi_map_pxm_to_node(), but always returns an online
      node.  When the mapped node from a given proximity ID is offline,
      it looks up the node distance table and returns the nearest
      online node.
      
      ACPI device drivers, which are called after the NUMA initialization
      has completed in the kernel, can call this interface to obtain their
      device NUMA topology from ACPI tables.  Such drivers do not have to
      deal with offline nodes.  A node may be offline when a device
      proximity ID is unique, SRAT memory entry does not exist, or NUMA is
      disabled, ex. "numa=off" on x86.
      
      This patch also moves the pxm range check from acpi_get_node() to
      acpi_map_pxm_to_node().

      libnvdimm, nfit: handle unarmed dimms, mark namespaces read-only · 58138820
      Dan Williams 提交于
      Upon detection of an unarmed dimm in a region, arrange for descendant
      BTT, PMEM, or BLK instances to be read-only.  A dimm is primarily marked
      "unarmed" via flags passed by platform firmware (NFIT).
      
      The flags in the NFIT memory device sub-structure indicate the state of
      the data on the nvdimm relative to its energy source or last "flush to
      persistence".  For the most part there is nothing the driver can do but
      advertise the state of these flags in sysfs and emit a message if
      firmware indicates that the contents of the device may be corrupted.
      However, for the case of ACPI_NFIT_MEM_ARMED, the driver can arrange for
      the block devices incorporating that nvdimm to be marked read-only.
      This is a safe default as the data is still available and new writes are
      held off until the administrator either forces read-write mode, or the
      energy source becomes armed.
      
      A 'read_only' attribute is added to REGION devices to allow for
      overriding the default read-only policy of all descendant block devices.

      tools/testing/nvdimm: libnvdimm unit test infrastructure · 6bc75619
      Dan Williams 提交于
      'libnvdimm' is the first driver sub-system in the kernel to implement
      mocking for unit test coverage.  The nfit_test module gets built as an
      external module and arranges for external module replacements of nfit,
      libnvdimm, nd_pmem, and nd_blk.  These replacements use the linker
      --wrap option to redirect calls to ioremap() + request_mem_region() to
      custom defined unit test resources.  The end result is a fully
      functional nvdimm_bus, as far as userspace is concerned, but with the
      capability to perform otherwise destructive tests on emulated resources.
      
      Q: Why not use QEMU for this emulation?
      QEMU is not suitable for unit testing.  QEMU's role is to faithfully
      emulate the platform.  A unit test's role is to unfaithfully implement
      the platform with the goal of triggering bugs in the corners of the
      sub-system implementation.  As bugs are discovered in platforms, or the
      sub-system itself, the unit tests are extended to backstop a fix with a
      reproducer unit test.
      
      Another problem with QEMU is that it would require coordination of 3
      software projects instead of 2 (kernel + libndctl [1]) to maintain and
      execute the tests.  The chances for bit rot and the difficulty of
      getting the tests running goes up non-linearly the more components
      involved.
      
      
      Q: Why submit this to the kernel tree instead of external modules in
         libndctl?
      Simple, to alleviate the same risk that out-of-tree external modules
      face.  Updates to drivers/nvdimm/ can be immediately evaluated to see if
      they have any impact on tools/testing/nvdimm/.
      
      
      Q: What are the negative implications of merging this?
      It is a unique maintenance burden because the purpose of mocking an
      interface to enable a unit test is to purposefully short circuit the
      semantics of a routine to enable testing.  For example
      __wrap_ioremap_cache() fakes the pmem driver into "ioremap()'ing" a test
      resource buffer allocated by dma_alloc_coherent().  The future
      maintenance burden hits when someone changes the semantics of
      ioremap_cache() and wonders what the implications are for the unit test.

      libnvdimm, nfit, nd_blk: driver for BLK-mode access persistent memory · 047fc8a1
      Ross Zwisler 提交于
      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.

      nd_btt: atomic sector updates · 5212e11f
      Vishal Verma 提交于
      BTT stands for Block Translation Table, and is a way to provide power
      fail sector atomicity semantics for block devices that have the ability
      to perform byte granularity IO. It relies on the capability of libnvdimm
      namespace devices to do byte aligned IO.
      
      The BTT works as a stacked blocked device, and reserves a chunk of space
      from the backing device for its accounting metadata. It is a bio-based
      driver because all IO is done synchronously, and there is no queuing or
      asynchronous completions at either the device or the driver level.
      
      The BTT uses 'lanes' to index into various 'on-disk' data structures,
      and lanes also act as a synchronization mechanism in case there are more
      CPUs than available lanes. We did a comparison between two lane lock
      strategies - first where we kept an atomic counter around that tracked
      which was the last lane that was used, and 'our' lane was determined by
      atomically incrementing that. That way, for the nr_cpus > nr_lanes case,
      theoretically, no CPU would be blocked waiting for a lane. The other
      strategy was to use the cpu number we're scheduled on to and hash it to
      a lane number. Theoretically, this could block an IO that could've
      otherwise run using a different, free lane. But some fio workloads
      showed that the direct cpu -> lane hash performed faster than tracking
      'last lane' - my reasoning is the cache thrash caused by moving the
      atomic variable made that approach slower than simply waiting out the
      in-progress IO. This supports the conclusion that the driver can be a
      very simple bio-based one that does synchronous IOs instead of queuing.

      libnvdimm: infrastructure for btt devices · 8c2f7e86
      Dan Williams 提交于
      NVDIMM namespaces, in addition to accepting "struct bio" based requests,
      also have the capability to perform byte-aligned accesses.  By default
      only the bio/block interface is used.  However, if another driver can
      make effective use of the byte-aligned capability it can claim namespace
      interface and use the byte-aligned ->rw_bytes() interface.
      
      The BTT driver is the initial first consumer of this mechanism to allow
      adding atomic sector update semantics to a pmem or blk namespace.  This
      patch is the sysfs infrastructure to allow configuring a BTT instance
      for a namespace.  Enabling that BTT and performing i/o is in a
      subsequent patch.

      A blk label set describes a namespace comprised of one or more

      patch will make these settings persistent by writing back the label(s).
      
      Unlike pmem namespaces, multiple blk namespaces can be created per
      region.  Once a blk namespace has been created a new seed device
      (unconfigured child of a parent blk region) is instantiated.  As long as
      a region has 'available_size' != 0 new child namespaces may be created.

      libnvdimm, nfit: add interleave-set state-tracking infrastructure · eaf96153
      Dan Williams 提交于
      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
      and attach it to a given region.

      libnvdimm, pmem: add libnvdimm support to the pmem driver · 9f53f9fa
      Dan Williams 提交于
      nd_pmem attaches to persistent memory regions and namespaces emitted by
      the libnvdimm subsystem, and, same as the original pmem driver, presents
      the system-physical-address range as a block device.
      
      The existing e820-type-12 to pmem setup is converted to an nvdimm_bus
      that emits an nd_namespace_io device.
      
      Note that the X in 'pmemX' is now derived from the parent region.  This
      provides some stability to the pmem devices names from boot-to-boot.
      The minor numbers are also more predictable by passing 0 to
      alloc_disk().

      libnvdimm: support for legacy (non-aliasing) nvdimms · 3d88002e
      Dan Williams 提交于
      The libnvdimm region driver is an intermediary driver that translates
      non-volatile "region"s into "namespace" sub-devices that are surfaced by
      persistent memory block-device drivers (PMEM and BLK).
      
      ACPI 6 introduces the concept that a given nvdimm may simultaneously
      offer multiple access modes to its media through direct PMEM load/store
      access, or windowed BLK mode.  Existing nvdimms mostly implement a PMEM
      interface, some offer a BLK-like mode, but never both as ACPI 6 defines.
      If an nvdimm is single interfaced, then there is no need for dimm
      metadata labels.  For these devices we can take the region boundaries
      directly to create a child namespace device (nd_namespace_io).

      libnvdimm, nfit: regions (block-data-window, persistent memory, volatile memory) · 1f7df6f8
      Dan Williams 提交于
      A "region" device represents the maximum capacity of a BLK range (mmio
      block-data-window(s)), or a PMEM range (DAX-capable persistent memory or
      volatile memory), without regard for aliasing.  Aliasing, in the
      dimm-local address space (DPA), is resolved by metadata on a dimm to
      designate which exclusive interface will access the aliased DPA ranges.
      Support for the per-dimm metadata/label arrvies is in a subsequent
      patch.
      
      The name format of "region" devices is "regionN" where, like dimms, N is
      a global ida index assigned at discovery time.  This id is not reliable
      across reboots nor in the presence of hotplug.  Look to attributes of
      the region or static id-data of the sub-namespace to generate a
      persistent name.  However, if the platform configuration does not change
      it is reasonable to expect the same region id to be assigned at the next
      boot.
      
      "region"s have 2 generic attributes "size", and "mapping"s where:
      - size: the BLK accessible capacity or the span of the
        system physical address range in the case of PMEM.
      
      - mappingN: a tuple describing a dimm's contribution to the region's
        capacity in the format (<nmemX>,<dpa>,<size>).  For a PMEM-region
        there will be at least one mapping per dimm in the interleave set.  For
        a BLK-region there is only "mapping0" listing the starting DPA of the
        BLK-region and the available DPA capacity of that space (matches "size"
        above).
      
      The max number of mappings per "region" is hard coded per the
      constraints of sysfs attribute groups.  That said the number of mappings
      per region should never exceed the maximum number of possible dimms in
      the system.  If the current number turns out to not be enough then the
      "mappings" attribute clarifies how many there are supposed to be. "32
      should be enough for anybody...".

      libnvdimm, nvdimm: dimm driver and base libnvdimm device-driver infrastructure · 4d88a97a
      Dan Williams 提交于
      * 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.

      libnvdimm: control (ioctl) messages for nvdimm_bus and nvdimm devices · 62232e45
      Dan Williams 提交于
      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.

      Enable nvdimm devices to be registered on a nvdimm_bus.  The kernel

      libnvdimm: control character device and nvdimm_bus sysfs attributes · 45def22c
      Dan Williams 提交于
      The control device for a nvdimm_bus is registered as an "nd" class
      device.  The expectation is that there will usually only be one "nd" bus
      registered under /sys/class/nd.  However, we allow for the possibility
      of multiple buses and they will listed in discovery order as
      ndctl0...ndctlN.  This character device hosts the ioctl for passing
      control messages.  The initial command set has a 1:1 correlation with
      the commands listed in the by the "NFIT DSM Example" document [1], but
      this scheme is extensible to future command sets.
      
      Note, nd_ioctl() and the backing ->ndctl() implementation are defined in
      a subsequent patch.  This is simply the initial registrations and sysfs
      attributes.

      A struct nvdimm_bus is the anchor device for registering nvdimm

      non-volatile memory resources in a system.  The nfit.ko driver attaches
      to the "ACPI0012" device that indicates the presence of the NFIT and
      parses the table to register a struct nvdimm_bus instance.

      drm: Zero out invalid vblank timestamp in drm_update_vblank_count. · fdb68e09
      Mario Kleiner 提交于
      Since commit 844b03f2 we make
      sure that after vblank irq off, we return the last valid
      (vblank count, vblank timestamp) pair to clients, e.g., during
      modesets, which is good.
      
      An overlooked side effect of that commit for kms drivers without
      support for precise vblank timestamping is that at vblank irq
      enable, when we update the vblank counter from the hw counter, we
      can't update the corresponding vblank timestamp, so now we have a
      totally mismatched timestamp for the new count to confuse clients.
      
      Restore old client visible behaviour from before Linux 3.17, but
      zero out the timestamp at vblank counter update (instead of disable
      as in original implementation) if we can't generate a meaningful
      timestamp immediately for the new vblank counter. This will fix
      this regression, so callers know they need to retry again later
      if they need a valid timestamp, but at the same time preserves
      the improvements made in the commit mentioned above.
