2016-07-13pmem: kill __pmem address spaceDan Williams
The __pmem address space was meant to annotate codepaths that touch persistent memory and need to coordinate a call to wmb_pmem(). Now that wmb_pmem() is gone, there is little need to keep this annotation.

2016-07-12libnvdimm, pmem: use nvdimm_flush() for namespace I/O writesDan Williams
nsio_rw_bytes() is used to write info block metadata to the namespace, so it should trigger a flush after every write. Replace wmb_pmem() with nvdimm_flush() in this path. Cc: Ross Zwisler <ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

2016-07-11libnvdimm, pmem: use REQ_FUA, REQ_FLUSH for nvdimm_flush()Dan Williams
Given that nvdimm_flush() has higher overhead than wmb_pmem() (pointer chasing through nd_region), and that we otherwise assume a platform has ADR capability when flush hints are not present, move nvdimm_flush() to REQ_FLUSH context. Note that we still arrange for nvdimm_flush() to be called even in the ADR case. We need at least once wmb() fence to push buffered writes in the cpu out to the ADR protected domain.

2016-07-11libnvdimm: cycle flush hintsDan Williams
When the NFIT provides multiple flush hint addresses per-dimm it is expressing that the platform is capable of processing multiple flush requests in parallel. There is some fixed cost per flush request, let the cost be shared in parallel on multiple cpus. Since there may not be enough flush hint addresses for each cpu to have one, keep a per-cpu index of the last used hint, hash it with current pid, and assume that access pattern and scheduler randomness will keep the flush-hint usage somewhat staggered across cpus.

2016-07-11libnvdimm: introduce nvdimm_flush() and nvdimm_has_flush()Dan Williams
nvdimm_flush() is a replacement for the x86 'pcommit' instruction. It is an optional write flushing mechanism that an nvdimm bus can provide for the pmem driver to consume. In the case of the NFIT nvdimm-bus-provider nvdimm_flush() is implemented as a series of flush-hint-address [1] writes to each dimm in the interleave set (region) that backs the namespace. The nvdimm_has_flush() routine relies on platform firmware to describe the flushing capabilities of a platform. It uses the heuristic of whether an nvdimm bus provider provides flush address data to return a ternary result: 1: flush addresses defined 0: dimm topology described without flush addresses (assume ADR) -errno: no topology information, unable to determine flush mechanism The pmem driver is expected to take the following actions on this ternary result: 1: nvdimm_flush() in response to REQ_FUA / REQ_FLUSH and shutdown 0: do not set, WC or FUA on the queue, take no further action -errno: warn and then operate as if nvdimm_has_flush() returned '0' The caveat of this heuristic is that it can not distinguish the "dimm does not have flush address" case from the "platform firmware is broken and failed to describe a flush address". Given we are already explicitly trusting the NFIT there's not much more we can do beyond blacklisting broken firmwares if they are ever encountered.

2016-07-11libnvdimm, nfit: move flush hint mapping to region-device driver-dataDan Williams
In preparation for triggering flushes of a DIMM's writes-posted-queue (WPQ) via the pmem driver move mapping of flush hint addresses to the region driver. Since this uses devm_nvdimm_memremap() the flush addresses will remain mapped while any region to which the dimm belongs is active. We need to communicate more information to the nvdimm core to facilitate this mapping, namely each dimm object now carries an array of flush hint address resources. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2016-07-11libnvdimm, nfit: remove nfit_spa_map() infrastructureDan Williams
Now that all shared mappings are handled by devm_nvdimm_memremap() we no longer need nfit_spa_map() nor do we need to trigger a callback to the bus provider at region disable time. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
2016-07-08libnvdimm: introduce devm_nvdimm_memremap(), convert nfit_spa_map() usersDan Williams
In preparation for generically mapping flush hint addresses for both the BLK and PMEM use case, provide a generic / reference counted mapping api. Given the fact that a dimm may belong to multiple regions (PMEM and BLK), the flush hint addresses need to be held valid as long as any region associated with the dimm is active. This is similar to the existing BLK-region case where multiple BLK-regions may share an aperture mapping. Up-level this shared / reference-counted mapping capability from the nfit driver to a core nvdimm capability. This eliminates the need for the nd_blk_region.disable() callback. Note that the removal of nfit_spa_map() and related infrastructure is deferred to a later patch. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

Currently phys_to_pfn_t() is an exported symbol to allow nfit_test to override it and indicate that nfit_test-pmem is not device-mapped. Now, we want to enable nfit_test to operate without DMA_CMA and the pmem it provides will no longer be physically contiguous, i.e. won't be capable of supporting direct_access requests larger than a page. Make pmem_direct_access() a weak symbol so that it can be replaced by the tools/testing/nvdimm/ version, and move phys_to_pfn_t() to a static inline now that it no longer needs to be overridden.
