Commit 4995734e973a "acpi, nfit: fix acpi_check_dsm() vs zero functions
implemented" attempted to fix a QEMU regression by supporting its usage
of a zero-mask as a valid response to a DSM-family probe request.
However, this behavior breaks HP platforms that return a zero-mask by
default causing the probe to misidentify the DSM-family.
Instead, the QEMU regression can be fixed by simply not requiring the DSM
family to be identified.
This effectively reverts commit 4995734e973a, and removes the DSM
requirement from the init path.

Per JEDEC Annex L Release 3 the SPD data is:
Bits 9~5 00 000 = Function Undefined
00 001 = Byte addressable energy backed
00 010 = Block addressed
00 011 = Byte addressable, no energy backed
All other codes reserved
Bits 4~0 0 0000 = Proprietary interface
0 0001 = Standard interface 1
All other codes reserved; see Definitions of Functions
...and per the ACPI 6.1 spec:
byte0: Bits 4~0 (0 or 1)
byte1: Bits 9~5 (1, 2, or 3)
...so a format interface code displayed as 0x301 should be stored in the
nfit as (0x1, 0x3), little-endian.

QEMU 2.6 implements nascent support for nvdimm DSMs. Depending on
configuration it may only implement the function0 dsm to indicate that
no other DSMs are available. Commit 31eca76ba2fc "nfit, libnvdimm:
limited/whitelisted dimm command marshaling mechanism" breaks QEMU, but
QEMU is spec compliant. Per the spec the way to indicate that no
functions are supported is:
If Function Index is zero, the return is a buffer containing one bit
for each function index, starting with zero. Bit 0 indicates whether
there is support for any functions other than function 0 for the
specified UUID and Revision ID. If set to zero, no functions are
supported (other than function zero) for the specified UUID and
Revision ID.
Update the nfit driver to determine the family (interface UUID) without
requiring the implementation to define any other functions, i.e.
short-circuit acpi_check_dsm() to succeed per the spec. The nfit driver
appears to be the only user passing funcs==0 to acpi_check_dsm(), so
this behavior change of the common routine should be limited to the
probing done by the nfit driver.

There are currently 4 known similar but incompatible definitions of the
command sets that can be sent to an NVDIMM through ACPI. It is also
clear that future platform generations (ACPI or not) will continue to
revise and extend the DIMM command set as new devices and use cases
arrive.
It is obviously untenable to continue to proliferate divergence
of these command definitions, and to that end a standardization process
has begun to provide for a unified specification. However, that leaves a
problem about what to do with this first generation where vendors are
already shipping divergence.
The Linux kernel can support these initial diverged platforms without
giving platform-firmware free reign to continue to diverge and compound
kernel maintenance overhead. The kernel implementation can encourage
standardization in two ways:
1/ Require that any function code that userspace wants to send be
explicitly white-listed in the implementation. For ACPI this means
function codes marked as supported by acpi_check_dsm() may
only be invoked if they appear in the white-list. A function must be
publicly documented before it is added to the white-list.
2/ The above restrictions can be trivially bypassed by using the
"vendor-specific" payload command. However, since vendor-specific
commands are by definition not publicly documented and have the
potential to corrupt the kernel's view of the dimm state, we provide a
toggle to disable vendor-specific operations. Enabling undefined
behavior is a policy decision that can be made by the platform owner
and encourages firmware implementations to choose public over
private command implementations.

Clarify the distinction between "commands", the ioctls userspace calls
to request the kernel take some action on a given dimm device, and
"_DSMs", the actual function numbers used in the firmware interface to
the DIMM. _DSMs are ACPI specific whereas commands are Linux kernel
generic.
This is in preparation for breaking the 1:1 implicit relationship
between the kernel ioctl number space and the firmware specific function

ACPI 6.1, Table 5-133, updates NVDIMM Control Region Structure
as follows.
- Valid Fields, Manufacturing Location, and Manufacturing Date
are added from reserved range. No change in the structure size.
- IDs (SPD values) are stored as arrays of bytes (i.e. big-endian
format). The spec clarifies that they need to be represented
as arrays of bytes as well.
This patch makes the following changes to support this update.
- Change the NFIT driver to show SPD ID values in big-endian
format.
- Change sprintf format to use "0x" instead of "#" since "%#02x"
does not prepend '0'.

Starting with ACPI 6.1 an NFIT table will report multiple 'NVDIMM
Control Region Structure' instances per-dimm, one for each supported
format interface. Report that code in the following format in sysfs:
nmemX/nfit/formats
nmemX/nfit/format
nmemX/nfit/format1
nmemX/nfit/format2
...
nmemX/nfit/formatN
Where format2 - formatN are theoretical as there are no known DIMMs with
support for more than two interface formats.
This layout is compatible with existing libndctl binaries that only
expect one code per-dimm as they will ignore nmemX/nfit/formats and
nmemX/nfit/formatN.

ACPI 6 defines persistent memory (PMEM) ranges in multiple
firmware interfaces, e820, EFI, and ACPI NFIT table. This EFI
change, however, leads to hit a bug in the grub bootloader, which
treats EFI_PERSISTENT_MEMORY type as regular memory and corrupts
stored user data [1].
Therefore, BIOS may set generic reserved type in e820 and EFI to
cover PMEM ranges. The kernel can initialize PMEM ranges from
ACPI NFIT table alone.
This scheme causes a problem in the iomem table, though. On x86,
for instance, e820_reserve_resources() initializes top-level entries
(iomem_resource.child) from the e820 table at early boot-time.
This creates "reserved" entry for a PMEM range, which does not allow
region_intersects() to check with PMEM type.
Change acpi_nfit_register_region() to call acpi_nfit_insert_resource(),
which calls insert_resource() to insert a PMEM entry from NFIT when
the iomem table does not have a PMEM entry already. That is, when
a PMEM range is marked as reserved type in e820, it inserts
"Persistent Memory" entry, which results as follows.
+ "Persistent Memory"
+ "reserved"
This allows the EINJ driver, which calls region_intersects() to check
PMEM ranges, to work continuously even if BIOS sets reserved type
(or sets nothing) to PMEM ranges in e820 and EFI.

While the nfit driver is issuing address range scrub commands and

Address range scrub is a potentially long running process that we want
to complete before any pmem regions are registered. Perform this
operation asynchronously to allow other drivers to load in the meantime.
Platform firmware may have initiated a partial scrub prior to the driver
loading, so we must be careful to consume those results before kicking
off kernel initiated scrubs on other regions.
This rework also makes the registration path more tolerant of scrub
errors in that it splits scrubbing into 2 phases. The first phase
synchronously waits for a platform-firmware initiated scrub to complete.
The second phase scans the remaining address ranges asynchronously and
notifies the related driver(s) when the scrub completes.

ACPI 6.1 clarified that multi-interface dimms require multiple control
region entries (DCRs) per dimm. Previously we were assuming that a
control region is only present when block-data-windows are present.
This implementation was done with an eye to be compatibility with the
looser ACPI 6.0 interpretation of this table.
1/ When coalescing the memory device (MEMDEV) tables for a single dimm,
coalesce on device_handle rather than control region index.
2/ Whenever we disocver a control region with non-zero block windows
re-scan for block-data-window (BDW) entries.
We may need to revisit this if a DIMM ever implements a format interface
outside of blk or pmem, but that is not on the foreseeable horizon.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this has appeared in -next and independently received a
build success notification from the kbuild robot. The 'for-4.5/block-
dax' topic branch was rebased over the weekend to drop the "block
device end-of-life" rework that Al would like to see re-implemented
with a notifier, and to address bug reports against the badblocks
integration.
There is pending feedback against "libnvdimm: Add a poison list and
export badblocks" received last week. Linda identified some localized
fixups that we will handle incrementally.
Summary:
- Media error handling: The 'badblocks' implementation that
originated in md-raid is up-levelled to a generic capability of a
block device. This initial implementation is limited to being
consulted in the pmem block-i/o path. Later, 'badblocks' will be
consulted when creating dax mappings.
- Raw block device dax: For virtualization and other cases that want
large contiguous mappings of persistent memory, add the capability
to dax-mmap a block device directly.
- Increased /dev/mem restrictions: Add an option to treat all
io-memory as IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE, i.e. disable /dev/mem access
while a driver is actively using an address range. This behavior
is controlled via the new CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM option and can be
overridden by the existing "iomem=relaxed" kernel command line
option.
- Miscellaneous fixes include a 'pfn'-device huge page alignment fix,
block device shutdown crash fix, and other small libnvdimm fixes"

When support for _FIT was added, the code presumed that the data
returned by the _FIT method is identical to the NFIT table, which
starts with an acpi_table_header. However, the _FIT is defined
to return a data in the format of a series of NFIT type structure
entries and as a method, has an acpi_object header rather tahn
an acpi_table_header.
To address the differences, explicitly save the acpi_table_header

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has
appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical
drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the
removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and
the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages().
Summary:
- Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
kernel's direct map.
This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page()
operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in
'struct block_device_operations').
For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes
from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device
memory will arrive in a later kernel.
- Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3.
Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
- Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
- Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
- Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for
issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
fixes"

Given that a write-back (WB) mapping plus non-temporal stores is
expected to be the most efficient way to access PMEM, update the
definition of ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API to imply arch support for
WB-mapped-PMEM. This is needed as a pre-requisite for adding PMEM to
the direct map and mapping it with struct page.
The above clarification for X86_64 means that memcpy_to_pmem() is
permitted to use the non-temporal arch_memcpy_to_pmem() rather than
needlessly fall back to default_memcpy_to_pmem() when the pcommit
instruction is not available. When arch_memcpy_to_pmem() is not
guaranteed to flush writes out of cache, i.e. on older X86_32
implementations where non-temporal stores may just dirty cache,
ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API is simply disabled.
The default fall back for persistent memory handling remains. Namely,
map it with the WT (write-through) cache-type and hope for the best.
arch_has_pmem_api() is updated to only indicate whether the arch
provides the proper helpers to meet the minimum "writes are visible
outside the cache hierarchy after memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem()". Code
that cares whether wmb_pmem() actually flushes writes to pmem must now
call arch_has_wmb_pmem() directly.

This should result in a pretty sizeable performance gain for reads. For
rough comparison I did some simple read testing using PMEM to compare
reads of write combining (WC) mappings vs write-back (WB). This was
done on a random lab machine.
PMEM reads from a write combining mapping:
# dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=100000
100000+0 records in
100000+0 records out
409600000 bytes (410 MB) copied, 9.2855 s, 44.1 MB/s
PMEM reads from a write-back mapping:
# dd of=/dev/null if=/dev/pmem0 bs=4096 count=1000000
1000000+0 records in
1000000+0 records out
4096000000 bytes (4.1 GB) copied, 3.44034 s, 1.2 GB/s
To be able to safely support a write-back aperture I needed to add
support for the "read flush" _DSM flag, as outlined in the DSM spec:
http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_DSM_Interface_Example.pdf
This flag tells the ND BLK driver that it needs to flush the cache lines
associated with the aperture after the aperture is moved but before any
new data is read. This ensures that any stale cache lines from the
previous contents of the aperture will be discarded from the processor
cache, and the new data will be read properly from the DIMM. We know
that the cache lines are clean and will be discarded without any
writeback because either a) the previous aperture operation was a read,
and we never modified the contents of the aperture, or b) the previous
aperture operation was a write and we must have written back the dirtied
contents of the aperture to the DIMM before the I/O was completed.
In order to add support for the "read flush" flag I needed to add a
generic routine to invalidate cache lines, mmio_flush_range(). This is
protected by the ARCH_HAS_MMIO_FLUSH Kconfig variable, and is currently
only supported on x86.

ACPI 6.0 NFIT Memory Device State Flags in Table 5-129 defines
NVDIMM status as follows. These bits indicate multiple info,
such as failures, pending event, and capability.
Bit [0] set to 1 to indicate that the previous SAVE to the
Memory Device failed.
Bit [1] set to 1 to indicate that the last RESTORE from the
Memory Device failed.
Bit [2] set to 1 to indicate that platform flush of data to
Memory Device failed. As a result, the restored data content
may be inconsistent even if SAVE and RESTORE do not indicate
failure.
Bit [3] set to 1 to indicate that the Memory Device is observed
to be not armed prior to OSPM hand off. A Memory Device is
considered armed if it is able to accept persistent writes.
Bit [4] set to 1 to indicate that the Memory Device observed
SMART and health events prior to OSPM handoff.
/sys/bus/nd/devices/nmemX/nfit/flags shows this flags info.
The output strings associated with the bits are "save", "restore",
"smart", etc., which can be confusing as they may be interpreted
as positive status, i.e. save succeeded.
Change also the dev_info() message in acpi_nfit_register_dimms()
to be consistent with the sysfs flags strings.

Add support for the three ARS DSM commands:
- Query ARS Capabilities - Queries the firmware to check if a given
range supports scrub, and if so, which type (persistent vs. volatile)
- Start ARS - Starts a scrub for a given range/type
- Query ARS Status - Checks status of a previously started scrub, and
provides the error logs if any.
The commands are described by the example DSM spec at:
http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_DSM_Interface_Example.pdf
Also add these commands to the nfit_test test framework, and return
canned data.

Add support in the NFIT BLK I/O path for the "latch" flag
defined in the "Get Block NVDIMM Flags" _DSM function:
http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_DSM_Interface_Example.pdf
This flag requires the driver to read back the command register after it
is written in the block I/O path. This ensures that the hardware has
fully processed the new command and moved the aperture appropriately.

Update the nfit block I/O path to use the new PMEM API and to adhere to
the read/write flows outlined in the "NVDIMM Block Window Driver
Writer's Guide":
http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_Driver_Writers_Guide.pdf
This includes adding support for targeted NVDIMM flushes called "flush
hints" in the ACPI 6.0 specification:
http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6.0.pdf
For performance and media durability the mapping for a BLK aperture is
moved to a write-combining mapping which is consistent with
memcpy_to_pmem() and wmb_blk().
