nfit: skip region registration for incomplete control regions

2018-04-24T07:43:02Z

commit 0731de476a37c33485af82d64041c9d193208df8 upstream. Per the ACPI specification the only functional purpose for a DIMM Control Region to be mapped into the system physical address space, from an OSPM perspective, is to support block-apertures. However, there are some BIOSen that publish DIMM Control Region SPA entries for pre-boot environment consumption. Undo the kernel policy of generating disabled 'ndblk' regions when this configuration is detected. Cc: Fixes: 1f7df6f88b92 ("libnvdimm, nfit: regions (block-data-window...)")

nfit, address-range-scrub: fix scrub in-progress reporting

2018-04-24T07:43:02Z

commit 78727137fdf49edf9f731bde79d7189067b4047a upstream. There is a small window whereby ARS scan requests can schedule work that userspace will miss when polling scrub_show. Hold the init_mutex lock over calls to report the status to close this potential escape. Also, make sure that requests to cancel the ARS workqueue are treated as an idle event.

acpi, nfit: rework NVDIMM leaf method detection

2018-04-24T07:42:52Z

commit 466d1493ea830789a2f063f478aaed2e324f0d3d upstream. Some BIOSen do not handle 0-byte transfer lengths for the _LSR and _LSW (label storage read/write) methods. This causes Linux to fallback to the deprecated _DSM path, or otherwise disable label support. Introduce acpi_nvdimm_has_method() to detect whether a method is available rather than calling the method, require _LSI and _LSR to be paired, and require read support before enabling write support.

nfit: fix region registration vs block-data-window ranges

2018-04-19T06:54:11Z

commit 8d0d8ed3356aa9ed43b819aaedd39b08ca453007 upstream. Commit 1cf03c00e7c1 "nfit: scrub and register regions in a workqueue" mistakenly attempts to register a region per BLK aperture. There is nothing to register for individual apertures as they belong as a set to a BLK aperture group that are registered with a corresponding DIMM-control-region. Filter them for registration to prevent some needless devm_kzalloc() allocations.

libnvdimm, nfit: fix persistence domain reporting

2018-03-21T22:12:07Z

The persistence domain is a point in the platform where once writes reach that destination the platform claims it will make them persistent relative to power loss. In the ACPI NFIT this is currently communicated as 2 bits in the "NFIT - Platform Capabilities Structure". The bits comprise a hierarchy, i.e. bit0 "CPU Cache Flush to NVDIMM Durability on Power Loss Capable" implies bit1 "Memory Controller Flush to NVDIMM Durability on Power Loss Capable". Commit 96c3a239054a "libnvdimm: expose platform persistence attr..." shows the persistence domain as flags, but it's really an enumerated hierarchy. Fix this newly introduced user ABI to show the closest available persistence domain before userspace develops dependencies on seeing, or needing to develop code to tolerate, the raw NFIT flags communicated through the libnvdimm-generic region attribute.

acpi, nfit: fix register dimm error handling

2018-02-02T21:49:29Z

A NULL pointer reference kernel bug was observed when acpi_nfit_add_dimm() called in acpi_nfit_register_dimms() failed. This error path does not set nfit_mem->nvdimm, but the 2nd list_for_each_entry() loop in the function assumes it's always set. Add a check to nfit_mem->nvdimm.

acpi: nfit: Add support for detect platform CPU cache flush on power loss

2018-02-01T22:01:15Z

In ACPI 6.2a the platform capability structure has been added to the NFIT tables. That provides software the ability to determine whether a system supports the auto flushing of CPU caches on power loss. If the capability is supported, we do not need to do dax_flush(). Plumbing the path to set the property on per region from the NFIT tables. This patch depends on the ACPI NFIT 6.2a platform capabilities support code in include/acpi/actbl1.h.
