[PATCH 0/6] I/O path improvements for ND_BLK and PMEM
by Ross Zwisler
This series adds a new PMEM API consisting of three functions:
persistent_copy(), persistent_flush() and persistent_sync().
These three functions are then used in the I/O paths for both the ND_BLK driver
and the PMEM driver to ensure that writes actually make it to the DIMM and
become durable before the I/O operation completes.
The first two patches in the series are just cleanup and correctness patches.
Patch three provides a reasonable architecture neutral default implementation
for these three APIs for architectures that do not implement the PMEM API.
These defaults allow all architectures to mostly work, aliasing
persistent_copy() to memcpy() and having persistent_flush() and
persistent_sync() be noops. With this patch set this implementation is
provided at the pmem.h level.
It's possible that other future consumers of the PMEM API (DAX, possibly
others) would prefer to have a different default behavior for architectures
that don't support the PMEM API. If this is the case we could move the choice
about what to do for those architectures down into consumer-specific header
files, so nd.h for libnd, for example. If DAX and other consumers are fine
with our defaults it's nicer to keep them common and in a global place. Please
let us know how other future consumers of the PMEM API feel about this.
Patches 5 and 6 update the I/O paths for flush hints and NVDIMM flags.
This series applies cleanly to Dan's "ndctl-for-next" tree:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/djbw/nvdimm.git/log/?h=libnd...
One last note - I'm going to be unavailable soon, so patch feedback will most
likely be handled by Dan Williams. Thanks, Dan. :)
Ross Zwisler (6):
pmem: add force casts to avoid __iomem annotation
nfit: Fix up address spaces, sparse warnings
x86, pmem: add PMEM API for persistent memory

[Linux-nvdimm] [PATCH v2 00/20] libnd: non-volatile memory device support
by Dan Williams
Changes since v1 [1]: Incorporates feedback received prior to April 24.
1/ Ingo said [2]:
"So why on earth is this whole concept and the naming itself
('drivers/block/nd/' stands for 'NFIT Defined', apparently)
revolving around a specific 'firmware' mindset and revolving
around specific, weirdly named, overly complicated looking
firmware interfaces that come with their own new weird
glossary??"
Indeed, we of course consulted the NFIT specification to determine
the shape of the sub-system, but then let its terms and data
structures permeate too deep into the implementation. That is fixed
now with all NFIT specifics factored out into acpi.c. The NFIT is no
longer required reading to review libnd. Only three concepts are
needed:
i/ PMEM - contiguous memory range where cpu stores are
persistent once they are flushed through the memory
controller.
ii/ BLK - mmio apertures (sliding windows) that can be
programmed to access an aperture's-worth of persistent
media at a time.
iii/ DPA - "dimm-physical-address", address space local to a
dimm. A dimm may provide both PMEM-mode and BLK-mode
access to a range of DPA. libnd manages allocation of DPA
to either PMEM or BLK-namespaces to resolve this aliasing.
The v1..v2 diffstat below shows the migration of nfit-specifics to
acpi.c and the new state of libnd being nfit-free. "nd" now only
refers to "non-volatile devices". Note, reworked documentation will
return once the review has settled.

2/ Christoph asked the pmem ida conversion to be moved to its own patch
(done), and to consider leaving the current pmem.c in drivers/block/.
Instead, I converted the e820-type-12 enabling to be the first
non-ACPI-NFIT based consumer of libnd. The new nd_e820 driver simply
registers e820-type-12 ranges as libnd PMEM regions. Among other
things this conversion enables BTT for these ranges. The alternative
is to move drivers/block/nd/nd.h internals out to include/linux/
which I think is worse.
3/ Toshi reported that the NFIT parsing fails to handle the case of a
PMEM range with a single-dimm (non-aliasing) interleave description.
Support for this case was added and is tested by default by the
nfit_test.1 configuration.
4/ Toshi reported that we should not be treating a missing _STA property
as a "dimm disabled by firmware" case. (fixed).
5/ Christoph noted that ND_ARCH_HAS_IOREMAP_CACHE needs to be moved to
arch code. It is gone for now and we'll revisit when adding cached
mappings back to the PMEM driver.
6/ Toshi mentioned that the presence of two different nd_bus_probe()
functions was confusing. (cleaned up).
7/ Robert asked for s/btt_checksum/nd_btt_checksum/ (done).
8/ Linda asked for nfit_test to honor dynamic cma reservations via the
cma= command line (done). The cma requirements have also been
reduced to 128M as only the simulated DAX regions need CMA. The rest
can use vmalloc().

[Linux-nvdimm] [GIT PULL] PMEM driver for v4.1
by Ingo Molnar
Linus,
Please pull the latest x86-pmem-for-linus git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git x86-pmem-for-linus
# HEAD: 4c1eaa2344fb26bb5e936fb4d8ee307343ea0089 drivers/block/pmem: Fix 32-bit build warning in pmem_alloc()
This is the initial support for the pmem block device driver:
persistent non-volatile memory space mapped into the system's physical
memory space as large physical memory regions.
The driver is based on Intel code, written by Ross Zwisler, with fixes
by Boaz Harrosh, integrated with x86 e820 memory resource management
and tidied up by Christoph Hellwig.
Note that there were two other separate pmem driver submissions to
lkml: but apparently all parties (Ross Zwisler, Boaz Harrosh) are
reasonably happy with this initial version.
This version enables minimal support that enables persistent memory
devices out in the wild to work as block devices, identified through a
magic (non-standard) e820 flag and auto-discovered if
CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY=y, or added explicitly through manipulating the
memory maps via the "memmap=..." boot option with the new, special '!'
modifier character.
Limitations: this is a regular block device, and since the pmem areas
are not struct page backed, they are invisible to the rest of the
system (other than the block IO device), so direct IO to/from pmem
areas, direct mmap() or XIP is not possible yet. The page cache will
also shadow and double buffer pmem contents, etc.
Initial support is for x86.
Thanks,
Ingo

[PATCH v3 00/21] libnd: non-volatile memory device support
by Dan Williams
Changes since v2 [1]:
1/ Rebase on the ACPICA enabling for the NFIT data structures. The
ACPICA project owns the definition of ACPI data structures in
include/acpi/. This release incorporates the NFIT and UUID definitions
from ACPICA release R05_15_15 [2]. (Rafael, Bob)
2/ Move the ACPI NFIT driver to drivers/acpi/ (Rafael)
3/ Include documentation of the overall subsystem (Rafael)
4/ Arrange for stable block device names in the case where the platform
configuration has not changed (Toshi and Robert)
5/ Move test infrastructure to the end of the series (Jeff)
6/ Fix up the Kconfig text for CONFIG_ND_BLK to be more descriptive
(Andy)
7/ Report and continue upon detecting unknown NFIT tables rather than
failing (Jeff)
8/ Rename the namespace 'type' attribute to 'nstype' so that lsblk does
not mistake libnd block devices for scsi disks. (Robert and Christoph)
9/ Convert nd_region_{acquire|release}_lane() to user percpu variable
infrastructure (Ross)
Thanks for all of the review!
Note, there are incremental changes to address caching, persistent
flushing, queue flags, and expanded sector size support that are
deferred until this base support is cleared to merge.

The libndctl changes for these updates are available in ndctl.git:
https://github.com/pmem/ndctl
For this set to move forward it needs acks from ACPI and BLOCK layer
developers. I am assuming this will ultimately go upstream via the
block tree. A branch in nvdimm.git will be prepared at the end of the
week to give the pending acks some time to land. Additional feedback
welcome, and hopefully it can be addressed incrementally from this
baseline going forward, i.e. aiming for inclusion in -next and no more
rebases before the 4.2 merge window opens.
