Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

2022-05-27T22:49:30+00:00

Pull libnvdimm and DAX updates from Dan Williams: "New support for clearing memory errors when a file is in DAX mode, alongside with some other fixes and cleanups. Previously it was only possible to clear these errors using a truncate or hole-punch operation to trigger the filesystem to reallocate the block, now, any page aligned write can opportunistically clear errors as well. This change spans x86/mm, nvdimm, and fs/dax, and has received the appropriate sign-offs. Thanks to Jane for her work on this. Summary: - Add support for clearing memory error via pwrite(2) on DAX - Fix 'security overwrite' support in the presence of media errors - Miscellaneous cleanups and fixes for nfit_test (nvdimm unit tests)" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: pmem: implement pmem_recovery_write() pmem: refactor pmem_clear_poison() dax: add .recovery_write dax_operation dax: introduce DAX_RECOVERY_WRITE dax access mode mce: fix set_mce_nospec to always unmap the whole page x86/mce: relocate set{clear}_mce_nospec() functions acpi/nfit: rely on mce->misc to determine poison granularity testing: nvdimm: asm/mce.h is not needed in nfit.c testing: nvdimm: iomap: make __nfit_test_ioremap a macro nvdimm: Allow overwrite in the presence of disabled dimms tools/testing/nvdimm: remove unneeded flush_workqueue

dax: add .recovery_write dax_operation

2022-05-16T20:37:59+00:00

Introduce dax_recovery_write() operation. The function is used to recover a dax range that contains poison. Typical use case is when a user process receives a SIGBUS with si_code BUS_MCEERR_AR indicating poison(s) in a dax range, in response, the user process issues a pwrite() to the page-aligned dax range, thus clears the poison and puts valid data in the range.

dax: introduce DAX_RECOVERY_WRITE dax access mode

2022-05-16T20:35:56+00:00

Up till now, dax_direct_access() is used implicitly for normal access, but for the purpose of recovery write, dax range with poison is requested. To make the interface clear, introduce enum dax_access_mode { DAX_ACCESS, DAX_RECOVERY_WRITE, } where DAX_ACCESS is used for normal dax access, and DAX_RECOVERY_WRITE is used for dax recovery write.

dax: remove the copy_from_iter and copy_to_iter methods

2021-12-18T16:04:53+00:00

These methods indirect the actual DAX read/write path. In the end pmem uses magic flush and mc safe variants and fuse and dcssblk use plain ones while device mapper picks redirects to the underlying device. Add set_dax_nocache() and set_dax_nomc() APIs to control which copy routines are used to remove indirect call from the read/write fast path as well as a lot of boilerplate code.
