Commit cfe30b8720 "libnvdimm, pmem: adjust for section collisions with
'System RAM'" enabled Linux to workaround occasions where platform
firmware arranges for "System RAM" and "Persistent Memory" to collide
within a single section boundary. Unfortunately, as reported in this
issue [1], platform firmware can inflict the same collision between
persistent memory regions.
The approach of interrogating iomem_resource does not work in this
case because platform firmware may merge multiple regions into a single
iomem_resource range. Instead provide a method to interrogate regions
that share the same parent bus.
This is a stop-gap until the core-MM can grow support for hotplug on
sub-section boundaries.

This patch adds logic that is meant to make use of the namespace index data
to reduce the number of reads that are needed to initialize a given
namespace. The general idea is that once we have enough data to validate
the namespace index we do so and then proceed to fetch only those labels
that are not listed as being "free". By doing this I am seeing a total time
reduction from about 4-5 seconds to 2-3 seconds for 24 NVDIMM modules each
with 128K of label config area.

This patch splits the initialization of the label data into two functions.
One for doing the init, and another for reading the actual configuration
data. The idea behind this is that by doing this we create a symmetry
between the getting and setting of config data in that we have a function
for both. In addition it will make it easier for us to identify the bits
that are related to init versus the pieces that are a wrapper for reading
data from the ACPI interface.
So for example by splitting things out like this it becomes much more
obvious that we were performing checks that weren't necessarily related to
the set/get operations such as relying on ndd->data being present when the
set and get ops should not care about a locally cached copy of the label
area.

When working on the label code I found it rather confusing to see several
spots that reference a minimum label size of 256 while working with labels
that are 128 bytes in size.
This patch is meant to provide a clarification on one of the comments that
was at the heart of the issue. Specifically for version 1.2 and later of
the namespace specification the minimum label size is 256, prior to that
the minimum label size was 128. So we should state that as such to avoid
confusion.

Use kvzalloc() to bypass the arbitrary PAGE_SIZE limit of label transfer
operations. Given the expense of calling into firmware, maximize the
amount of label data we transfer per call to be up to the total label
space if allowed by the firmware.
Instead of limiting based on PAGE_SIZE we can instead simply limit the
maximum size based on either the config_size int he case of the get
operation, or the length of the write based on the set operation.
On a system with 24 NVDIMM modules each with a config_size of 128K and a
maximum transfer size of 64K - 4, this patch reduces the init time for the
label data from around 24 seconds down to between 4-5 seconds.

If there are badblocks present in the 'struct page' area for pfn
namespaces, until now, the only way to clear them has been to force the
namespace into raw mode, clear the errors, and re-enable the fsdax mode.
This is clunky, given that it should be easy enough for the pfn driver
to do the same.
Add a new helper that uses the most recently available badblocks list to
check whether there are any badblocks that lie in the volatile struct
page area. If so, before initializing the struct pages, send down
targeted writes via nvdimm_write_bytes to write zeroes to the affected
blocks, and thus clear errors.

Pull libnvdimm memory-failure update from Dave Jiang:
"As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap
backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several
possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax
mappings.
In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses:
1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races
that would typically be handled by the page lock.
2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the
"compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine
the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn.
3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively
accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and
otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel.
A side effect of this enabling is that MADV_HWPOISON becomes usable
for dax mappings, however the primary motivation is to allow the
system to survive userspace consumption of hardware-poison via dax.
Specifically the current behavior is:
mce: Uncorrected hardware memory error in user-access at af34214200

Commit efda1b5d87 ("acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status output length handling")
Introduced additional hardening for ambiguity in the ACPI spec for
ars_status output sizing. However, it had a couple of cases mixed up.
Where it should have been checking for (and returning) "out_field[1] -
4" it was using "out_field[1] - 8" and vice versa.
This caused a four byte discrepancy in the buffer size passed on to
the command handler, and in some cases, this caused memory corruption
like:
./daxdev-errors.sh: line 76: 24104 Aborted (core dumped) ./daxdev-errors $busdev $region

pmem_direct_access() needs to check the validity of pointers kaddr
and pfn for NULL assignment. If anyone equals to NULL, it doesn't need
to calculate the value.
If pointer equals to NULL, that is to say callers may have no need for
kaddr or pfn, so this patch is prepared for allowing them to pass in
NULL instead of having to pass in a pointer or local variable that
they then just throw away.

Add and use a new op_stat_group() function for indexing partition stat
fields rather than indexing them by rq_data_dir() or bio_data_dir().
This function works similarly to op_is_sync() in that it takes the
request::cmd_flags or bio::bi_opf flags and determines which stats
should et updated.
In addition, the second parameter to generic_start_io_acct() and
generic_end_io_acct() is now a REQ_OP rather than simply a read or
write bit and it uses op_stat_group() on the parameter to determine
the stat group.
Note that the partition in_flight counts are not part of the per-cpu
statistics and as such are not indexed via this function. It's now
indexed by op_is_write().
tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17. Updated to pass around REQ_OP.

c11f0c0b5b ("block/mm: make bdev_ops->rw_page() take a bool for
read/write") replaced @op with boolean @is_write, which limited the
amount of information going into ->rw_page() and more importantly
page_endio(), which removed the need to expose block internals to mm.
Unfortunately, we want to track discards separately and @is_write
isn't enough information. This patch updates bdev_ops->rw_page() to
take REQ_OP instead but leaves page_endio() to take bool @is_write.
This allows the block part of operations to have enough information
while not leaking it to mm.

This commit:
5fdf8e5ba5 ("libnvdimm: re-enable deep flush for pmem devices via fsync()")
intended to make sure that deep flush was always available even on
platforms which support a power-fail protected CPU cache. An unintended
side effect of this change was that we also lost the ability to skip
flushing CPU caches on those power-fail protected CPU cache.
Fix this by skipping the low level cache flushing in dax_flush() if we have
CPU caches which are power-fail protected. The user can still override this
behavior by manually setting the write_cache state of a namespace. See
libndctl's ndctl_namespace_write_cache_is_enabled(),
ndctl_namespace_enable_write_cache() and
ndctl_namespace_disable_write_cache() functions.

Prior to this commit we would only do a "deep flush" (have nvdimm_flush()
write to each of the flush hints for a region) in response to an
msync/fsync/sync call if the nvdimm_has_cache() returned true at the time
we were setting up the request queue. This happens due to the write cache
value passed in to blk_queue_write_cache(), which then causes the block
layer to send down BIOs with REQ_FUA and REQ_PREFLUSH set. We do have a
"write_cache" sysfs entry for namespaces, i.e.:
/sys/bus/nd/devices/pfn0.1/block/pmem0/dax/write_cache
which can be used to control whether or not the kernel thinks a given
namespace has a write cache, but this didn't modify the deep flush behavior
that we set up when the driver was initialized. Instead, it only modified
whether or not DAX would flush CPU caches via dax_flush() in response to
*sync calls.
Simplify this by making the *sync deep flush always happen, regardless of
the write cache setting of a namespace. The DAX CPU cache flushing will
still be controlled the write_cache setting of the namespace.

There is currently a mismatch between the resources that will trigger
the e820_pmem driver to register/load and the resources that will
actually be surfaced as pmem ranges. register_e820_pmem() uses
walk_iomem_res_desc() which includes children and siblings. In contrast,
e820_pmem_probe() only considers top level resources. For example the
following resource tree results in the driver being loaded, but no
resources being registered:
398000000000-39bfffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:ae
39be00000000-39bf07ffffff : PCI Bus 0000:af
39be00000000-39beffffffff : 0000:af:00.0
39be10000000-39beffffffff : Persistent Memory (legacy)
Fix this up to allow definitions of "legacy" pmem ranges anywhere in
system-physical address space. Not that it is a recommended or safe to
define a pmem range in PCI space, but it is useful for debug /
experimentation, and the restriction on being a top-level resource was
arbitrary.

The pmem driver does not honor a forced read-only setting for very long:
$ blockdev --setro /dev/pmem0
$ blockdev --getro /dev/pmem0
1
followed by various commands like these:
$ blockdev --rereadpt /dev/pmem0
or
$ mkfs.ext4 /dev/pmem0
results in this in the kernel serial log:
nd_pmem namespace0.0: region0 read-write, marking pmem0 read-write
with the read-only setting lost:
$ blockdev --getro /dev/pmem0
0
That's from bus.c nvdimm_revalidate_disk(), which always applies the
setting from nd_region (which is initially based on the ACPI NFIT
NVDIMM state flags not_armed bit).
In contrast, commit 20bd1d026a ("scsi: sd: Keep disk read-only when
re-reading partition") fixed this issue for SCSI devices to preserve
the previous setting if it was set to read-only.
This patch modifies bus.c to preserve any previous read-only setting.
It also eliminates the kernel serial log print except for cases where
read-write is changed to read-only, so it doesn't print read-only to
read-only non-changes.

In preparation for fixing dax-dma-vs-unmap issues, filesystems need to
be able to rely on the fact that they will get wakeups on dev_pagemap
page-idle events. Introduce MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX and
generic_dax_page_free() as common indicator / infrastructure for dax
filesytems to require. With this change there are no users of the
MEMORY_DEVICE_HOST designation, so remove it.
The HMM sub-system extended dev_pagemap to arrange a callback when a
dev_pagemap managed page is freed. Since a dev_pagemap page is free /
idle when its reference count is 1 it requires an additional branch to
check the page-type at put_page() time. Given put_page() is a hot-path
we do not want to incur that check if HMM is not in use, so a static
branch is used to avoid that overhead when not necessary.
Now, the FS_DAX implementation wants to reuse this mechanism for
receiving dev_pagemap ->page_free() callbacks. Rework the HMM-specific
static-key into a generic mechanism that either HMM or FS_DAX code paths
can enable.
For ARCH=um builds, and any other arch that lacks ZONE_DEVICE support,
care must be taken to compile out the DEV_PAGEMAP_OPS infrastructure.
However, we still need to support FS_DAX in the FS_DAX_LIMITED case
implemented by the s390/dcssblk driver.

Machine check safe memory copies are currently deployed in the pmem
driver whenever reading from persistent memory media, so that -EIO is
returned rather than triggering a kernel panic. While this protects most
pmem accesses, it is not complete in the filesystem-dax case. When
filesystem-dax is enabled reads may bypass the block layer and the
driver via dax_iomap_actor() and its usage of copy_to_iter().
In preparation for creating a copy_to_iter() variant that can handle
machine checks, teach memcpy_mcsafe() to return the number of bytes
remaining rather than -EFAULT when an exception occurs.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This cycle was was not something I ever want to repeat as there were
several late changes that have only now just settled.
Half of the branch up to commit d2c997c0f1 ("fs, dax: use
page->mapping to warn...") have been in -next for several releases.
The of_pmem driver and the address range scrub rework were late
arrivals, and the dax work was scaled back at the last moment.
The of_pmem driver missed a previous merge window due to an oversight.
A sense of obligation to rectify that miss is why it is included for
4.17. It has acks from PowerPC folks. Stephen reported a build failure
that only occurs when merging it with your latest tree, for now I have
fixed that up by disabling modular builds of of_pmem. A test merge
with your tree has received a build success report from the 0day robot
over 156 configs.
An initial version of the ARS rework was submitted before the merge
window. It is self contained to libnvdimm, a net code reduction, and
passing all unit tests.
The filesystem-dax changes are based on the wait_var_event()
functionality from tip/sched/core. However, late review feedback
showed that those changes regressed truncate performance to a large
degree. The branch was rewound to drop the truncate behavior change
and now only includes preparation patches and cleanups (with full acks
and reviews). The finalization of this dax-dma-vs-trnucate work will
need to wait for 4.18.
Summary:
- A rework of the filesytem-dax implementation provides for detection
