mm, devm_memremap_pages: fix shutdown handling

2018-12-28T20:11:47Z

The last step before devm_memremap_pages() returns success is to allocate a release action, devm_memremap_pages_release(), to tear the entire setup down. However, the result from devm_add_action() is not checked. Checking the error from devm_add_action() is not enough. The api currently relies on the fact that the percpu_ref it is using is killed by the time the devm_memremap_pages_release() is run. Rather than continue this awkward situation, offload the responsibility of killing the percpu_ref to devm_memremap_pages_release() directly. This allows devm_memremap_pages() to do the right thing relative to init failures and shutdown. Without this change we could fail to register the teardown of devm_memremap_pages(). The likelihood of hitting this failure is tiny as small memory allocations almost always succeed. However, the impact of the failure is large given any future reconfiguration, or disable/enable, of an nvdimm namespace will fail forever as subsequent calls to devm_memremap_pages() will fail to setup the pgmap_radix since there will be stale entries for the physical address range. An argument could be made to require that the ->kill() operation be set in the @pgmap arg rather than passed in separately. However, it helps code readability, tracking the lifetime of a given instance, to be able to grep the kill routine directly at the devm_memremap_pages() call site.

device-dax: avoid hang on error before devm_memremap_pages()

2018-08-01T00:05:42Z

dax_pmem_percpu_exit() waits for dax_pmem_percpu_release() to invoke the dax_pmem->cmp completion. Unfortunately this approach to cleaning up the percpu_ref only works after devm_memremap_pages() was successful. If devm_add_action_or_reset() or devm_memremap_pages() fails, dax_pmem_percpu_release() is not invoked. Therefore dax_pmem_percpu_exit() hangs waiting for the completion: rc = devm_add_action_or_reset(dev, dax_pmem_percpu_exit, &dax_pmem->ref); if (rc) return rc; dax_pmem->pgmap.ref = &dax_pmem->ref; addr = devm_memremap_pages(dev, &dax_pmem->pgmap); Avoid the hang by calling percpu_ref_exit() in the error paths instead of going through dax_pmem_percpu_exit().

device-dax: remove redundant func in dev_dbg

2018-03-06T16:50:23Z

Dynamic debug can be instructed to add the function name to the debug output using the +f switch, so there is no need for the dax modules to do it again. If a user decides to add the +f switch for the dax modules' dynamic debug this results in double prints of the function name.

memremap: change devm_memremap_pages interface to use struct dev_pagemap

2018-01-08T19:46:23Z

This new interface is similar to how struct device (and many others) work. The caller initializes a 'struct dev_pagemap' as required and calls 'devm_memremap_pages'. This allows the pagemap structure to be embedded in another structure and thus container_of can be used. In this way application specific members can be stored in a containing struct. This will be used by the P2P infrastructure and HMM could probably be cleaned up to use it as well (instead of having it's own, similar 'hmm_devmem_pages_create' function).

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "The bulk of this has been in multiple -next releases. There were a few late breaking fixes and small features that got added in the last couple days, but the whole set has received a build success notification from the kbuild robot. Change summary: - Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of namespace modes or state. This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1 Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error" requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus devices. - Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations. This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent memory support. - 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR (asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event. Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally, fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for -stable. - ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM payload debug available by default, and various fixes.

mm, zone_device: Replace {get, put}_zone_device_page() with a single reference to fix pmem crash

2017-05-01T07:15:53Z

The x86 conversion to the generic GUP code included a small change which causes crashes and data corruption in the pmem code - not good. The root cause is that the /dev/pmem driver code implicitly relies on the x86 get_user_pages() implementation doing a get_page() on the page refcount, because get_page() does a get_zone_device_page() which properly refcounts pmem's separate page struct arrays that are not present in the regular page struct structures. (The pmem driver does this because it can cover huge memory areas.) But the x86 conversion to the generic GUP code changed the get_page() to page_cache_get_speculative() which is faster but doesn't do the get_zone_device_page() call the pmem code relies on. One way to solve the regression would be to change the generic GUP code to use get_page(), but that would slow things down a bit and punish other generic-GUP using architectures for an x86-ism they did not care about. (Arguably the pmem driver was probably not working reliably for them: but nvdimm is an Intel feature, so non-x86 exposure is probably still limited.) So restructure the pmem code's interface with the MM instead: get rid of the get/put_zone_device_page() distinction, integrate put_zone_device_page() into __put_page() and and restructure the pmem completion-wait and teardown machinery: Kirill points out that the calls to {get,put}_dev_pagemap() can be removed from the mm fast path if we take a single get_dev_pagemap() reference to signify that the page is alive and use the final put of the page to drop that reference. This does require some care to make sure that any waits for the percpu_ref to drop to zero occur *after* devm_memremap_page_release(), since it now maintains its own elevated reference. This speeds up things while also making the pmem refcounting more robust going forward.

dax: refactor dax-fs into a generic provider of 'struct dax_device' instances

2017-04-13T04:59:14Z

We want dax capable drivers to be able to publish a set of dax operations [1]. However, we do not want to further abuse block_devices to advertise these operations. Instead we will attach these operations to a dax device and add a lookup mechanism to go from block device path to a dax device. A dax capable driver like pmem or brd is responsible for registering a dax device, alongside a block device, and then a dax capable filesystem is responsible for retrieving the dax device by path name if it wants to call dax_operations. For now, we refactor the dax pseudo-fs to be a generic facility, rather than an implementation detail, of the device-dax use case. Where a "dax device" is just an inode + dax infrastructure, and "Device DAX" is a mapping service layered on top of that base 'struct dax_device'. "Filesystem DAX" is then a mapping service that layers a filesystem on top of that same base device. Filesystem DAX is associated with a block_device for now, but perhaps directly to a dax device in the future, or for new pmem-only filesystems.

device-dax: rename 'dax_dev' to 'dev_dax'

2017-04-13T04:59:13Z

In preparation for introducing a struct dax_device type to the kernel global type namespace, rename dax_dev to dev_dax. A 'dax_device' instance will be a generic device-driver object for any provider of dax functionality. A 'dev_dax' object is a device-dax-driver local / internal instance. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams
