[ndctl PATCH v2 00/10] ndctl: automatically initialize labels
by Dan Williams
Changes since v1 [1]:
* Reflect the new region type when it is next enabled (Ryon)
* Spelling and whitespace (Vishal)
* Fix support for the v1.2 labels case where we were miscalculating the
size of the index block area. This bug has been hiding behind the
order of operations in which we do the calculation. The kernel needs the
same fixup.

The QEMU-KVM enabling for a virtual NVDIMM is an example of a
configuration where label-less namespaces are created by default. I.e.
the ACPI NFIT produced by SeaBIOS publishes un-aliased pmem regions. The
first operation an administrator is likely to perform is to reconfigure
the namespace into "memory" mode to enable full-featured DAX support.
The reconfiguration of the label-less namespace into "memory" mode is an
opportunity to also enable labels. This series effectively runs the
following sequence:
ndctl disable-region all
ndctl init-labels
ndctl enabled-region all
...in 'create-namespace' whenever a label-less namespace is encountered.
The implementation is careful to try v1.2 labels and validate that the
kernel supports that scheme. Otherwise, it falls back to v1.1 labels.
For other utilities built on top of libndctl, the following new helpers
are provided to enable a similar flow:
ndctl_dimm_read_labels()
ndctl_dimm_validate_labels()
ndctl_dimm_init_labels()
...where 'read_labels' enables the other apis, 'validate_labels' checks
whether the data retrieved from the read corresponds to a valid set of
namespace label index blocks, and 'init_labels' writes namespace index
blocks to the dimm. In order to check that the kernel supports a given
index block version / format the result from
ndctl_dimm_get_available_labels() can be compared to the result from
ndctl_dimm_init_labels() to make sure the kernel sees the same number of
available slots as userspace.

[PATCH] libnvdimm: clean up command definitions
by Dan Williams
Remove the command payloads that do not have an associated libnvdimm
ioctl. I.e. remove the payloads that would only ever be carried in the
ND_CMD_CALL envelope. This prevents userspace from growing unnecessary
dependencies on this kernel header when userspace already has everything
it needs to craft and send these commands.

[PATCH] libnvdimm, btt: check memory allocation failure
by Christophe JAILLET
Check memory allocation failures and return -ENOMEM in such cases, as
already done few lines below for another memory allocation.
This avoids NULL pointers dereference.
