lightnvm: check overflow and correct mlc pairs

2016-02-04T16:19:45Z

The specification currently limits the number of MLC pairs to 886. Make sure that a device is unable to be instantiate if more is configured. Also, previously the patch had the wrong math for copying MLC pairs, as it only copied half of the actual entries.

Pull lightnvm fixes and updates from Jens Axboe: "This should have been part of the drivers branch, but it arrived a bit late and wasn't based on the official core block driver branch.

The cores changes include: - blk-mq - Prep patch from Christoph, changing blk_mq_alloc_request() to take flags instead of just using gfp_t for sleep/nosleep. - Doc patch from me, clarifying the difference between legacy and blk-mq for timer usage. - Fixes from Raghavendra for memory-less numa nodes, and a reuse of CPU masks. - Cleanup from Geliang Tang, using offset_in_page() instead of open coding it. - From Ilya, rename request_queue slab to it reflects what it holds, and a fix for proper use of bdgrab/put. - A real fix for the split across stripe boundaries from Keith.

lightnvm: introduce mlc lower page table mappings

2016-01-12T15:21:17Z

NAND MLC memories have both lower and upper pages. When programming, both of these must be written, before data can be read. However, these lower and upper pages might not placed at even and odd flash pages, but can be skipped. Therefore each flash memory has its lower pages defined, which can then be used when programming and to know when padding are necessary. This patch implements the lower page definition in the specification, and exposes it through a simple lookup table at dev->lptbl. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

lightnvm: return the get_bb_tbl return value

2016-01-12T15:21:16Z

During get_bb_tbl, a callback is used to allow an user-specific scan function to be called. The callback may return an error, and in that case, the return value is overridden. However, the callback error is needed when the fault is a user error and not a kernel error. For example, when a user tries to initialize the same device twice. The get_bb_tbl callback should be able to communicate this. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

lightnvm: refactor end_io functions for sync

2016-01-12T15:21:16Z

To implement sync I/O support within the LightNVM core, the end_io functions are refactored to take an end_io function pointer instead of testing for initialized media manager, followed by calling its end_io function. Sync I/O can then be implemented using a callback that signal I/O completion. This is similar to the logic found in blk_to_execute_io(). By implementing it this way, the underlying device I/Os submission logic is abstracted away from core, targets, and media managers. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

lightnvm: replace req queue with nvmdev for lld

2015-12-07T16:14:19Z

In the case where a request queue is passed to the low lever lightnvm device drive integration, the device driver might pass its admin commands through another queue. Instead pass nvm_dev, and let the low level drive the appropriate queue. Reported-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

lightnvm: check mm before use

2015-12-07T16:14:19Z

The core can may issue I/Os before a media manager is registered with the lightnvm subsystem. Make sure that we don't call the media manager ->end_io prematurely with a null pointer. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

NVMe: fix build with CONFIG_NVM enabled

2015-12-03T16:52:05Z

Looks like I didn't test with CONFIG_NVM enabled, and neither did the build bot. Most of this is really weird crazy shit in the lighnvm support, though. Struct nvme_ns is a structure for the NVM I/O command set, and it has no business poking into it. Second this commit: commit 47b3115ae7b799be8b77b0f024215ad4f68d6460 Author: Wenwei Tao Date: Fri Nov 20 13:47:55 2015 +0100 nvme: lightnvm: use admin queues for admin cmds Does even more crazy stuff. If a function gets a request_queue parameter passed it'd better use that and not look for another one. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
