      libnvdimm: pmem label sets and namespace instantiation. · bf9bccc1
      Dan Williams 提交于
      A complete label set is a PMEM-label per-dimm per-interleave-set where
      all the UUIDs match and the interleave set cookie matches the hosting
      interleave set.
      
      Present sysfs attributes for manipulation of a PMEM-namespace's
      'alt_name', 'uuid', and 'size' attributes.  A later patch will make
      these settings persistent by writing back the label.
      
      Note that PMEM allocations grow forwards from the start of an interleave
      set (lowest dimm-physical-address (DPA)).  BLK-namespaces that alias
      with a PMEM interleave set will grow allocations backward from the
      highest DPA.

      libnvdimm: namespace indices: read and validate · 4a826c83
      Dan Williams 提交于
      This on media label format [1] consists of two index blocks followed by
      an array of labels.  None of these structures are ever updated in place.
      A sequence number tracks the current active index and the next one to
      write, while labels are written to free slots.
      
          +------------+
          |            |
          |  nsindex0  |
          |            |
          +------------+
          |            |

          +------------+
      
      After reading valid labels, store the dpa ranges they claim into
      per-dimm resource trees.

      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, 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.

      libnvdimm, nfit: dimm/memory-devices · e6dfb2de
      Dan Williams 提交于
      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.
