In commit 658922e57b "libnvdimm, pfn: fix memmap reservation sizing"
we arranged for the capacity to be allocated, but failed to also update
the 'npfns' parameter. This leads to cases where there is enough
capacity reserved to hold all the allocated sections, but
vmemmap_populate_hugepages() still encounters -ENOMEM from
altmap_alloc_block_buf().
This fix is a stop-gap until we can teach the core memory hotplug
implementation to permit sub-section hotplug.

Per the latest version of the "NVDIMM DSM Interface Example" [1], the
label data retrieval routine can report a "locked" status. In this case
all regions associated with that DIMM are disabled until the label area
is unlocked. Provide generic libnvdimm enabling for NVDIMMs with label
data area locking capabilities.

This is a preparation patch for handling locked nvdimm label regions, a
new concept as introduced by the latest DSM document on pmem.io [1]. A
future patch will leverage nvdimm_set_locked() at DIMM probe time to
flag regions that can not be enabled. There should be no functional
difference resulting from this change.

Toshi noticed that the new support for a region-level badblocks missed
the case where errors are cleared due to BTT I/O.
An initial attempt to fix this ran into a "sleeping while atomic"
warning due to taking the nvdimm_bus_lock() in the BTT I/O path to
satisfy the locking requirements of __nvdimm_bus_badblocks_clear().
However, that lock is not needed since we are not acting on any data that
is subject to change under that lock. The badblocks instance has its own
internal lock to handle mutations of the error list.
So, in order to make it clear that we are just acting on region devices,
rename __nvdimm_bus_badblocks_clear() to nvdimm_clear_badblocks_regions().
Eliminate the lock and consolidate all support routines for the new
nvdimm_account_cleared_poison() in drivers/nvdimm/bus.c. Finally, to the
opportunity to cleanup to some unnecessary casts, make the calling
convention of nvdimm_clear_badblocks_regions() clearer by replacing struct
resource with the minimal struct clear_badblocks_context, and use the
DEVICE_ATTR macro.

The nvdimm_flush() mechanism helps to reduce the impact of an ADR
(asynchronous-dimm-refresh) failure. The ADR mechanism handles flushing
platform WPQ (write-pending-queue) buffers when power is removed. The
nvdimm_flush() mechanism performs that same function on-demand.
When a pmem namespace is associated with a block device, an
nvdimm_flush() is triggered with every block-layer REQ_FUA, or REQ_FLUSH
request. These requests are typically associated with filesystem
metadata updates. However, when a namespace is in device-dax mode,
userspace (think database metadata) needs another path to perform the
same flushing. In other words this is not required to make data
persistent, but in the case of metadata it allows for a smaller failure
domain in the unlikely event of an ADR failure.
The new 'deep_flush' attribute is visible when the individual DIMMs
backing a given interleave-set are described by platform firmware. In
ACPI terms this is "NVDIMM Region Mapping Structures" and associated
"Flush Hint Address Structures". Reads return "1" if the region supports
triggering WPQ flushes on all DIMMs. Reads return "0" the flush
operation is a platform nop, and in that case the attribute is
read-only.
Why sysfs and not an ioctl? An ioctl requires establishing a new
ioctl function number space for device-dax. Given that this would be
called on a device-dax fd an application could be forgiven for
accidentally calling this on a filesystem-dax fd. Placing this interface
in libnvdimm sysfs removes that potential for collision with a
filesystem ioctl, and it keeps ioctls out of the generic device-dax
implementation.

memcpy_from_pmem() maps directly to memcpy_mcsafe(). The wrapper
serves no real benefit aside from affording a more generic function name
than the x86-specific 'mcsafe'. However this would not be the first time
that x86 terminology leaked into the global namespace. For lack of
better name, just use memcpy_mcsafe() directly.
This conversion also catches a place where we should have been using
plain memcpy, acpi_nfit_blk_single_io().

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 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.

The interleave-set cookie is a sum that sanity checks the composition of
an interleave set has not changed from when the namespace was initially
created. The checksum is calculated by sorting the DIMMs by their
location in the interleave-set. The comparison for the sort must be
64-bit wide, not byte-by-byte as performed by memcmp() in the broken
case.
Fix the implementation to accept correct cookie values in addition to
the Linux "memcmp" order cookies, but only allow correct cookies to be
generated going forward. It does mean that namespaces created by
third-party-tooling, or created by newer kernels with this fix, will not
validate on older kernels. However, there are a couple mitigating
conditions:
1/ platforms with namespace-label capable NVDIMMs are not widely
available.
2/ interleave-sets with a single-dimm are by definition not affected
(nothing to sort). This covers the QEMU-KVM NVDIMM emulation case.
The cookie stored in the namespace label will be fixed by any write the
namespace label, the most straightforward way to achieve this is to
write to the "alt_name" attribute of a namespace in sysfs.

When vmemmap_populate() allocates space for the memmap it does so in 2MB
sized chunks. The libnvdimm-pfn driver incorrectly accounts for this
when the alignment of the device is set to 4K. When this happens we
trigger memory allocation failures in altmap_alloc_block_buf() and
trigger warnings of the form:

Given that the naming of pmem devices changes from the pmemX form to the
pmemX.Y form when namespace id is greater than 0, arrange for namespaces
with id-0 to be exempt from deletion. Otherwise a simple reconfiguration
of an existing namespace to a new mode results in a name change of the
resulting block device:
# ndctl list --namespace=namespace1.0
{
"dev":"namespace1.0",
"mode":"raw",
"size":2147483648,
"uuid":"3dadf3dc-89b9-4b24-b20e-abc8a4707ce3",

}
# ndctl create-namespace --reconfig=namespace1.0 --mode=memory --force

"uuid":"7b4a6341-7318-4219-a02c-fb57c0bbf613",
"blockdev":"pmem1.1"
}
This change does require tooling changes to explicitly look for
namespaceX.0 if the seed has already advanced to another namespace.

The read_pmem() function uses memcpy_mcsafe() on x86 where an EFAULT
error code indicates a failed read. Block I/O should use EIO to
indicate failure. Other pmem code paths (like bad blocks) already use
EIO so let's be consistent.
This fixes compatibility with consumers like btrfs that try to parse the
specific error code rather than treat all errors the same.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The libnvdimm pull request is relatively small this time around due to
some development topics being deferred to 4.11.
As for this pull request the bulk of it has been in -next for several
releases leading to one late fix being added (commit 868f036fee
("libnvdimm: fix mishandled nvdimm_clear_poison() return value")). It
has received a build success notification from the 0day-kbuild robot
and passes the latest libnvdimm unit tests.
Summary:
- Dynamic label support: To date namespace label support has been
limited to disambiguating cases where PMEM (direct load/store) and
BLK (mmio aperture) accessed-capacity alias on the same DIMM. Since
4.9 added support for multiple namespaces per PMEM-region there is
value to support namespace labels even in the non-aliasing case.
The presence of a valid namespace index block force-enables label
support when the kernel would otherwise rely on region boundaries,
and permits the region to be sub-divided.
- Handle media errors in namespace metadata: Complement the error
handling for media errors in namespace data areas with support for
clearing errors on writes, and downgrading potential machine-check
exceptions to simple i/o errors on read.
- Device-DAX region attributes: Add 'align', 'id', and 'size' as
attributes for device-dax regions. In particular this enables
userspace tooling to generically size memory mapping and i/o
operations. Prevent userspace from growing assumptions /
dependencies about the parent device topology for a dax region. A

sector calculations" that I noticed when merging the for-4.10/libnvdimm
topic branch into libnvdimm-for-next, but I missed this one. Fix both of
them to the following procedure:
* if we clear a block's worth of media, clear that many blocks in

Given ambiguities in the ACPI 6.1 definition of the "Output (Size)"
field of the ARS (Address Range Scrub) Status command, a firmware
implementation may in practice return 0, 4, or 8 to indicate that there
is no output payload to process.
The specification states "Size of Output Buffer in bytes, including this
field.". However, 'Output Buffer' is also the name of the entire
payload, and earlier in the specification it states "Max Query ARS
Status Output Buffer Size: Maximum size of buffer (including the Status
and Extended Status fields)".
Without this fix if the BIOS happens to return 0 it causes memory
corruption as evidenced by this result from the acpi_nfit_ctl() unit
test.

1fc000000-2fbffffff : namespace1.0

Notice that the ndctl listing is purely in terms of namespace devices,
while the iomem listing leaks the internal "btt0.1" implementation
detail. Given that ndctl requires the namespace device name to change
the mode, for example:
# ndctl create-namespace --reconfig=namespace0.0 --mode=raw --force
...use the namespace name in the iomem listing to keep the claiming

This behavior can lead to an issue when user keeps writing but does not

Change pmem_do_bvec() and pmem_clear_poison() to return -EIO so that

If the kcalloc() fails then "devs" can be NULL and we dereference it
checking "devs[i]".

Platforms like QEMU-KVM implement an NFIT table and label DSMs.
However, since that environment does not define an aliased
configuration, the labels are currently ignored and the kernel registers
a single full-sized pmem-namespace per region. Now that the kernel
supports sub-divisions of pmem regions the labels have a purpose.
Arrange for the labels to be honored when we find an existing / valid
namespace index block.
