caa603aae0 acpi, nfit: collate health state flags
Be tolerant of cases where the BIOS provided NFIT does not consistently
set the flags in all NVDIMM Region Mapping structures associated with a
given dimm.

1499934dcd acpi, nfit: support "map failed" dimms
Stop requiring dimms be successfully mapped into a
system-physical-address range. For provisioning and hardware remediation
purposes the kernel should account for failed devices in sysfs. If
possible it should still allow management commands to be sent to the
device.

ffab9385b3 acpi, nfit: add support for acpi 6.1 dimm state flags
Add support for the ACPI_NFIT_MEM_MAP_FAILED ("map_fail") and
ACPI_NFIT_MEM_HEALTH_ENABLED ("smart_notify") health state flags. The
"map_fail" flag identifies DIMMs that were not mapped into one or more
physical address ranges. The "health_notify" flag indicates whether
platform firmware will send notifications when there is new SMART health
data to consume.

3c87f37269 acpi, nfit: fix acpi_get_table leak
Calls to acpi_get_table() must be paired with acpi_put_table() to undo
the mapping established by acpi_tb_acquire_table().

It turns out this has no effect in practice since the NFIT will already
be mapped to support the /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/NFIT attribute in
sysfs.

ba650cfcf9 acpi, nfit: allow specifying a default DSM family
Provide the ability to request a default DSM family. If it is not
supported, then fall back to the normal discovery order.

This is helpful for testing platforms that support multiple DSM
families.  It will also allow administrators to request the DSM family
that their management tools support, which may not be the first one
found using the current discovery order.

095ab4b39f acpi, nfit: allow override of built-in bitmasks for nvdimm DSMs
As it is today, we can't enable or test new NVDIMM management functions
provided by new firmware and tools without changing the kernel.  We also
can't prevent documented DSM functions from being called in the case of
buggy firmware.  This patch provides a module parameter that overrides
the DSM function mask that is built into the kernel.

If the "disable_vendor_specific" module parameter is also used we ignore
the new parameter.

 "A fix and regression test case for nvdimm namespace label
  compatibility.

  Details:

   - An "nvdimm namespace label" is metadata on an nvdimm that
     provisions dimm capacity into a "namespace" that can host a block
     device / dax-filesytem, or a device-dax character device.

     A namespace is an object that other operating environment and
     platform firmware needs to comprehend for capabilities like booting
     from an nvdimm.

     The label metadata contains a checksum that Linux was not
     calculating correctly leading to other environments rejecting the
     Linux label.

   These have received a build success notification from the kbuild
   robot, and a positive test result from Nick who reported the problem"

86ef58a4e3 nfit, libnvdimm: fix interleave set cookie calculation
The interleave-set cookie is a sum that sanity checks the composition of
an interleave set has not changed from when the namespace was initially
created.  The checksum is calculated by sorting the DIMMs by their
location in the interleave-set. The comparison for the sort must be
64-bit wide, not byte-by-byte as performed by memcmp() in the broken
case.

Fix the implementation to accept correct cookie values in addition to
the Linux "memcmp" order cookies, but only allow correct cookies to be
generated going forward. It does mean that namespaces created by
third-party-tooling, or created by newer kernels with this fix, will not
validate on older kernels. However, there are a couple mitigating
conditions:

    1/ platforms with namespace-label capable NVDIMMs are not widely
       available.

    2/ interleave-sets with a single-dimm are by definition not affected
       (nothing to sort). This covers the QEMU-KVM NVDIMM emulation case.

The cookie stored in the namespace label will be fixed by any write the
namespace label, the most straightforward way to achieve this is to
write to the "alt_name" attribute of a namespace in sysfs.

6b11d1d677 ACPI / osl: Remove acpi_get_table_with_size()/early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() users
This patch removes the users of the deprectated APIs:
 acpi_get_table_with_size()
 early_acpi_os_unmap_memory()
The following APIs should be used instead of:
 acpi_get_table()
 acpi_put_table()

The deprecated APIs are invented to be a replacement of acpi_get_table()
during the early stage so that the early mapped pointer will not be stored
in ACPICA core and thus the late stage acpi_get_table() won't return a
wrong pointer. The mapping size is returned just because it is required by
early_acpi_os_unmap_memory() to unmap the pointer during early stage.

But as the mapping size equals to the acpi_table_header.length
(see acpi_tb_init_table_descriptor() and acpi_tb_validate_table()), when
such a convenient result is returned, driver code will start to use it
instead of accessing acpi_table_header to obtain the length.

Thus this patch cleans up the drivers by replacing returned table size with
acpi_table_header.length, and should be a no-op.

a7de92dac9 tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()
A recent flurry of bug discoveries in the nfit driver's DSM marshalling
routine has highlighted the fact that we do not have unit test coverage
for this routine. Add a self-test of acpi_nfit_ctl() routine before
probing the "nfit_test.0" device. This mocks stimulus to acpi_nfit_ctl()
and if any of the tests fail "nfit_test.0" will be unavailable causing
the rest of the tests to not run / fail.

This unit test will also be a place to land reproductions of quirky BIOS
behavior discovered in the field and ensure the kernel does not regress
against implementations it has seen in practice.

d6eb270c57 acpi, nfit: fix bus vs dimm confusion in xlat_status
Given dimms and bus commands share the same command number space we need
to be careful that we are translating status in the correct context.
Otherwise we can, for example, fail an ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_SIZE command
because max_xfer is zero. It fails because that condition erroneously
correlates with the 'cleared == 0' failure of ND_CMD_CLEAR_ERROR.

efda1b5d87 acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status output length handling
Given ambiguities in the ACPI 6.1 definition of the "Output (Size)"
field of the ARS (Address Range Scrub) Status command, a firmware
implementation may in practice return 0, 4, or 8 to indicate that there
is no output payload to process.

The specification states "Size of Output Buffer in bytes, including this
field.". However, 'Output Buffer' is also the name of the entire
payload, and earlier in the specification it states "Max Query ARS
Status Output Buffer Size: Maximum size of buffer (including the Status
and Extended Status fields)".

Without this fix if the BIOS happens to return 0 it causes memory
corruption as evidenced by this result from the acpi_nfit_ctl() unit
test.

Per "ACPI 6.1 Section 9.20.3" NVDIMM devices, children of the ACPI0012
NVDIMM Root device, can receive health event notifications.

Given that these devices are precluded from registering a notification
handler via acpi_driver.acpi_device_ops (due to no _HID), we use
acpi_install_notify_handler() directly.  The registered handler,
acpi_nvdimm_notify(), triggers a poll(2) event on the nmemX/nfit/flags
sysfs attribute when a health event notification is received.

68202c9f0a libnvdimm, nd_blk: mask off reserved status bits
The "NVDIMM Block Window Driver Writer's Guide":

    http://pmem.io/documents/NVDIMM_DriverWritersGuide-July-2016.pdf

...defines the layout of the block window status register.  For the July
2016 version of the spec linked to above, this happens in Figure 4 on
page 26.

The only bits defined in this spec are bits 31, 5, 4, 2, 1 and 0.  The
rest of the bits in the status register are reserved, and there is a
warning following the diagram that says:

    Note: The driver cannot assume the value of the RESERVED bits in the
    status register are zero. These reserved bits need to be masked off, and
    the driver must avoid checking the state of those bits.

This change ensures that for hardware implementations that set these
reserved bits in the status register, the driver won't incorrectly fail the
block I/Os.

6839a6d96f nfit: do an ARS scrub on hitting a latent media error
When a latent (unknown to 'badblocks') error is encountered, it will
trigger a machine check exception. On a system with machine check
recovery, this will only SIGBUS the process(es) which had the bad page
mapped (as opposed to a kernel panic on platforms without machine
check recovery features). In the former case, we want to trigger a full
rescan of that nvdimm bus. This will allow any additional, new errors
to be captured in the block devices' badblocks lists, and offending
operations on them can be trapped early, avoiding machine checks.

This is done by registering a callback function with the
x86_mce_decoder_chain and calling the new ars_rescan functionality with
the address in the mce notificatiion.

bdf97013ce nfit: move to nfit/ sub-directory
With the arrival of x86-machine-check support the nfit driver will add a
(conditionally-compiled) source file.  Prepare for this by moving all
nfit source to drivers/acpi/nfit/.  This is pure code movement, no
functional changes.
