Clarify the distinction between "commands", the ioctls userspace calls to request the kernel take some action on a given dimm device, and "_DSMs", the actual function numbers used in the firmware interface to the DIMM. _DSMs are ACPI specific whereas commands are Linux kernel generic. This is in preparation for breaking the 1:1 implicit relationship between the kernel ioctl number space and the firmware specific function numbers.

The return value from an 'ndctl_fn' reports the command execution status, i.e. was the command properly formatted and was it successfully submitted to the bus provider. The new 'cmd_rc' parameter allows the bus provider to communicate command specific results, translated into common error codes. Convert the ARS commands to this scheme to: 1/ Consolidate status reporting 2/ Prepare for for expanding ars unit test cases 3/ Make the implementation more generic Cc: Vishal Verma <vishal.l.verma@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

Use the output length specified in the command to size the receive buffer rather than the arbitrary 4K limit.

When support for _FIT was added, the code presumed that the data returned by the _FIT method is identical to the NFIT table, which starts with an acpi_table_header. However, the _FIT is defined to return a data in the format of a series of NFIT type structure entries and as a method, has an acpi_object header rather tahn an acpi_table_header. To address the differences, explicitly save the acpi_table_header from the NFIT, since it is accessible through /sys, and change the nfit pointer in the acpi_desc structure to point to the table entries rather than the headers.

Add a .notify callback to the acpi_nfit_driver that gets called on a hotplug event. From this, evaluate the _FIT ACPI method which returns the updated NFIT with handles for the hot-plugged NVDIMM. Iterate over the new NFIT, and add any new tables found, and register/enable the corresponding regions. In the nfit test framework, after normal initialization, update the NFIT with a new hot-plugged NVDIMM, and directly call into the driver to update its view of the available regions.

This should result in a pretty sizeable performance gain for reads. For rough comparison I did some simple read testing using PMEM to compare reads of write combining (WC) mappings vs write-back (WB). This was done on a random lab machine. PMEM reads from a write combining mapping: # dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=100000 100000+0 records in 100000+0 records out 409600000 bytes (410 MB) copied, 9.2855 s, 44.1 MB/s PMEM reads from a write-back mapping: # dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=1000000 1000000+0 records in 1000000+0 records out 4096000000 bytes (4.1 GB) copied, 3.44034 s, 1.2 GB/s To be able to safely support a write-back aperture I needed to add support for the "read flush" _DSM flag, as outlined in the DSM spec: http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_DSM_Interface_Example.pdf This flag tells the ND BLK driver that it needs to flush the cache lines associated with the aperture after the aperture is moved but before any new data is read. This ensures that any stale cache lines from the previous contents of the aperture will be discarded from the processor cache, and the new data will be read properly from the DIMM. We know that the cache lines are clean and will be discarded without any writeback because either a) the previous aperture operation was a read, and we never modified the contents of the aperture, or b) the previous aperture operation was a write and we must have written back the dirtied contents of the aperture to the DIMM before the I/O was completed. In order to add support for the "read flush" flag I needed to add a generic routine to invalidate cache lines, mmio_flush_range(). This is protected by the ARCH_HAS_MMIO_FLUSH Kconfig variable, and is currently only supported on x86.

Add support for the three ARS DSM commands: - Query ARS Capabilities - Queries the firmware to check if a given range supports scrub, and if so, which type (persistent vs. volatile) - Start ARS - Starts a scrub for a given range/type - Query ARS Status - Checks status of a previously started scrub, and provides the error logs if any. The commands are described by the example DSM spec at: http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_DSM_Interface_Example.pdf Also add these commands to the nfit_test test framework, and return canned data.

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. Signed-off-by: NDan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

'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.
