Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "This cycle was was not something I ever want to repeat as there were several late changes that have only now just settled. Half of the branch up to commit d2c997c0f145 ("fs, dax: use page->mapping to warn...") have been in -next for several releases. The of_pmem driver and the address range scrub rework were late arrivals, and the dax work was scaled back at the last moment. The of_pmem driver missed a previous merge window due to an oversight. A sense of obligation to rectify that miss is why it is included for 4.17. It has acks from PowerPC folks. Stephen reported a build failure that only occurs when merging it with your latest tree, for now I have fixed that up by disabling modular builds of of_pmem. A test merge with your tree has received a build success report from the 0day robot over 156 configs. An initial version of the ARS rework was submitted before the merge window. It is self contained to libnvdimm, a net code reduction, and passing all unit tests. The filesystem-dax changes are based on the wait_var_event() functionality from tip/sched/core. However, late review feedback showed that those changes regressed truncate performance to a large degree. The branch was rewound to drop the truncate behavior change and now only includes preparation patches and cleanups (with full acks and reviews). The finalization of this dax-dma-vs-trnucate work will need to wait for 4.18. Summary: - A rework of the filesytem-dax implementation provides for detection of unmap operations (truncate / hole punch) colliding with in-progress device-DMA. A fix for these collisions remains a work-in-progress pending resolution of truncate latency and starvation regressions. - The of_pmem driver expands the users of libnvdimm outside of x86 and ACPI to describe an implementation of persistent memory on PowerPC with Open Firmware / Device tree. - Address Range Scrub (ARS) handling is completely rewritten to account for the fact that ARS may run for 100s of seconds and there is no platform defined way to cancel it. ARS will now no longer block namespace initialization. - The NVDIMM Namespace Label implementation is updated to handle label areas as small as 1K, down from 128K. - Miscellaneous cleanups and updates to unit test infrastructure" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (39 commits) libnvdimm, of_pmem: workaround OF_NUMA=n build error nfit, address-range-scrub: add module option to skip initial ars nfit, address-range-scrub: rework and simplify ARS state machine nfit, address-range-scrub: determine one platform max_ars value powerpc/powernv: Create platform devs for nvdimm buses doc/devicetree: Persistent memory region bindings libnvdimm: Add device-tree based driver libnvdimm: Add of_node to region and bus descriptors libnvdimm, region: quiet region probe libnvdimm, namespace: use a safe lookup for dimm device name libnvdimm, dimm: fix dpa reservation vs uninitialized label area libnvdimm, testing: update the default smart ctrl_temperature libnvdimm, testing: Add emulation for smart injection commands nfit, address-range-scrub: introduce nfit_spa->ars_state libnvdimm: add an api to cast a 'struct nd_region' to its 'struct device' nfit, address-range-scrub: fix scrub in-progress reporting dax, dm: allow device-mapper to operate without dax support dax: introduce CONFIG_DAX_DRIVER fs, dax: use page->mapping to warn if truncate collides with a busy page ext2, dax: introduce ext2_dax_aops ...

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - DM core passthrough ioctl fix to retain reference to DM table, and that table's block devices, while issuing the ioctl to one of those block devices. - DM core passthrough ioctl fix to _not_ override the fmode_t used to issue the ioctl. Overriding by using the fmode_t that the block device was originally open with during DM table load is a liability. - Add DM core support for secure erase forwarding and update the DM linear and DM striped targets to support them. - A DM core 4.16 stable fix to allow abnormal IO (e.g. discard, write same, write zeroes) for targets that make use of the non-splitting IO variant (as is done for multipath or thinp when layered directly on NVMe). - Allow DM targets to return a payload in response to a DM message that they are sent. This is useful for DM targets that would like to provide statistics data in response to DM messages. - Update DM bufio to support non-power-of-2 block sizes. Numerous other related changes prepare the DM bufio code for this support. - Fix DM crypt to use a bounded amount of memory across the entire system. This is to avoid OOM that can otherwise occur in response to certain pathological IO workloads (e.g. discarding a large DM crypt device). - Add a 'check_at_most_once' feature to the DM verity target to allow verity to be used on mobile devices that have very limited resources. - Fix the DM integrity target to fail early if a keyed algorithm (e.g. HMAC) is to be used but the key isn't set. - Add non-power-of-2 support to the DM unstripe target. - Eliminate the use of a Variable Length Array in the DM stripe target. - Update the DM log-writes target to record metadata (REQ_META flag). - DM raid fixes for its nosync status and some variable range issues. * tag 'for-4.17/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: (28 commits) dm: remove fmode_t argument from .prepare_ioctl hook dm: hold DM table for duration of ioctl rather than use blkdev_get dm raid: fix parse_raid_params() variable range issue dm verity: make verity_for_io_block static dm verity: add 'check_at_most_once' option to only validate hashes once dm bufio: don't embed a bio in the dm_buffer structure dm bufio: support non-power-of-two block sizes dm bufio: use slab cache for dm_buffer structure allocations dm bufio: reorder fields in dm_buffer structure dm bufio: relax alignment constraint on slab cache dm bufio: remove code that merges slab caches dm bufio: get rid of slab cache name allocations dm bufio: move dm-bufio.h to include/linux/ dm bufio: delete outdated comment dm: add support for secure erase forwarding dm: backfill abnormal IO support to non-splitting IO submission dm raid: fix nosync status dm mpath: use DM_MAPIO_SUBMITTED instead of magic number 0 in process_queued_bios() dm stripe: get rid of a Variable Length Array (VLA) dm log writes: record metadata flag for better flags record ...

dm: remove fmode_t argument from .prepare_ioctl hook

2018-04-04T16:12:39+00:00

Use the fmode_t that is passed to dm_blk_ioctl() rather than inconsistently (varies across targets) drop it on the floor by overriding it with the fmode_t stored in 'struct dm_dev'. All the persistent reservation functions weren't using the fmode_t they got back from .prepare_ioctl so remove them. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

dm: hold DM table for duration of ioctl rather than use blkdev_get

2018-04-04T16:12:38+00:00

Commit 519049afead ("dm: use blkdev_get rather than bdgrab when issuing pass-through ioctl") inadvertantly introduced a regression relative to users of device cgroups that issue ioctls (e.g. libvirt). Using blkdev_get() in DM's passthrough ioctl support implicitly introduced a cgroup permissions check that would fail unless care were taken to add all devices in the IO stack to the device cgroup. E.g. rather than just adding the top-level DM multipath device to the cgroup all the underlying devices would need to be allowed. Fix this, to no longer require allowing all underlying devices, by simply holding the live DM table (which includes the table's original blkdev_get() reference on the blockdevice that the ioctl will be issued to) for the duration of the ioctl. Also, bump the DM ioctl version so a user can know that their device cgroup allow workaround is no longer needed.

dm: backfill abnormal IO support to non-splitting IO submission

2018-04-03T19:04:20+00:00

Otherwise, these abnormal IOs would be sent to the DM target regardless of whether the target advertised support for them. Factor out __process_abnormal_io() from __split_and_process_non_flush() so that discards, write same, etc may be conditionally processed.

dax, dm: allow device-mapper to operate without dax support

2018-04-03T12:41:19+00:00

Change device-mapper's DAX dependency to require the presence of at least one DAX_DRIVER. This allows device-mapper to be built without bringing the DAX core along which is especially wasteful when there are no DAX drivers, like BLK_DEV_PMEM, configured.
