With Intel DSM 1.8 [1] two new security DSMs are introduced. Enable/update master passphrase and master secure erase. The master passphrase allows a secure erase to be performed without the user passphrase that is set on the NVDIMM. The commands of master_update and master_erase are added to the sysfs knob in order to initiate the DSMs. They are similar in opeartion mechanism compare to update and erase.

2018-12-21acpi/nfit, libnvdimm/security: Add security DSM overwrite supportDave Jiang
Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL "ovewrite" capability as described by the Intel DSM spec v1.7. This will allow triggering of overwrite on Intel NVDIMMs. The overwrite operation can take tens of minutes. When the overwrite DSM is issued successfully, the NVDIMMs will be unaccessible. The kernel will do backoff polling to detect when the overwrite process is completed. According to the DSM spec v1.7, the 128G NVDIMMs can take up to 15mins to perform overwrite and larger DIMMs will take longer. Given that overwrite puts the DIMM in an indeterminate state until it completes introduce the NDD_SECURITY_OVERWRITE flag to prevent other operations from executing when overwrite is happening. The NDD_WORK_PENDING flag is added to denote that there is a device reference on the nvdimm device for an async workqueue thread context.

Some NVDIMMs, like the ones defined by the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL command set, expose a security capability to lock the DIMMs at poweroff and require a passphrase to unlock them. The security model is derived from ATA security.

2018-12-05libnvdimm, pfn: Pad pfn namespaces relative to other regionsDan Williams
Commit cfe30b872058 "libnvdimm, pmem: adjust for section collisions with 'System RAM'" enabled Linux to workaround occasions where platform firmware arranges for "System RAM" and "Persistent Memory" to collide within a single section boundary. Unfortunately, as reported in this issue [1], platform firmware can inflict the same collision between persistent memory regions. The approach of interrogating iomem_resource does not work in this case because platform firmware may merge multiple regions into a single iomem_resource range. Instead provide a method to interrogate regions that share the same parent bus. This is a stop-gap until the core-MM can grow support for hotplug on sub-section boundaries.

The free dpa (dimm-physical-address) space calculation reports how much free space is available with consideration for aliased BLK + PMEM regions. Recall that BLK capacity is allocated from high addresses and PMEM is allocated from low addresses in their respective regions. nd_region_available_dpa() accounts for the fact that the largest encroachment (lowest starting address) into PMEM capacity by a BLK allocation limits the available capacity to that point, regardless if there is BLK allocation hole at a higher address. Similarly, for the multi-pmem case we need to track the largest encroachment (highest ending address) of a PMEM allocation in BLK capacity regardless of whether there is an allocation hole that a BLK allocation could fill at a lower address.

Since this uses devm_nvdimm_memremap() the flush addresses will remain mapped while any region to which the dimm belongs is active.

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.

2015-06-26libnvdimm, nfit, nd_blk: driver for BLK-mode access persistent memoryRoss Zwisler
The libnvdimm implementation handles allocating dimm address space (DPA) between PMEM and BLK mode interfaces. After DPA has been allocated from a BLK-region to a BLK-namespace the nd_blk driver attaches to handle I/O as a struct bio based block device. Unlike PMEM, BLK is required to handle platform specific details like mmio register formats and memory controller interleave. For this reason the libnvdimm generic nd_blk driver calls back into the bus provider to carry out the I/O. This initial implementation handles the BLK interface defined by the ACPI 6 NFIT [1] and the NVDIMM DSM Interface Example [2] composed from DCR (dimm control region), BDW (block data window), IDT (interleave descriptor) NFIT structures and the hardware register format.

2015-06-25libnvdimm: infrastructure for btt devicesDan Williams
NVDIMM namespaces, in addition to accepting "struct bio" based requests, also have the capability to perform byte-aligned accesses. By default only the bio/block interface is used. However, if another driver can make effective use of the byte-aligned capability it can claim namespace interface and use the byte-aligned ->rw_bytes() interface. The BTT driver is the initial first consumer of this mechanism to allow adding atomic sector update semantics to a pmem or blk namespace. This patch is the sysfs infrastructure to allow configuring a BTT instance for a namespace. Enabling that BTT and performing i/o is in a subsequent patch.

A blk label set describes a namespace comprised of one or more discontiguous dpa ranges on a single dimm. They may alias with one or more pmem interleave sets that include the given dimm. This is the runtime/volatile configuration infrastructure for sysfs manipulation of 'alt_name', 'uuid', 'size', and 'sector_size'. A later patch will make these settings persistent by writing back the label(s). Unlike pmem namespaces, multiple blk namespaces can be created per region. Once a blk namespace has been created a new seed device (unconfigured child of a parent blk region) is instantiated. As long as a region has 'available_size' != 0 new child namespaces may be created.

2015-06-24libnvdimm, nfit: add interleave-set state-tracking infrastructureDan Williams
On platforms that have firmware support for reading/writing per-dimm label space, a portion of the dimm may be accessible via an interleave set PMEM mapping in addition to the dimm's BLK (block-data-window aperture(s)) interface. A label, stored in a "configuration data region" on the dimm, disambiguates which dimm addresses are accessed through which exclusive interface. Add infrastructure that allows the kernel to block modifications to a label in the set while any member dimm is active. Note that this is meant only for enforcing "no modifications of active labels" via the coarse ioctl command. Adding/deleting namespaces from an active interleave set is always possible via sysfs. Another aspect of tracking interleave sets is tracking their integrity when DIMMs in a set are physically re-ordered. For this purpose we generate an "interleave-set cookie" that can be recorded in a label and validated against the current configuration. It is the bus provider implementation's responsibility to calculate the interleave set cookie and attach it to a given region.

2015-06-24libnvdimm: support for legacy (non-aliasing) nvdimmsDan Williams
The libnvdimm region driver is an intermediary driver that translates non-volatile "region"s into "namespace" sub-devices that are surfaced by persistent memory block-device drivers (PMEM and BLK). ACPI 6 introduces the concept that a given nvdimm may simultaneously offer multiple access modes to its media through direct PMEM load/store access, or windowed BLK mode. Existing nvdimms mostly implement a PMEM interface, some offer a BLK-like mode, but never both as ACPI 6 defines. If an nvdimm is single interfaced, then there is no need for dimm metadata labels. For these devices we can take the region boundaries directly to create a child namespace device (nd_namespace_io).

2015-06-24libnvdimm, nfit: regions (block-data-window, persistent memory, volatile memory)Dan Williams
A "region" device represents the maximum capacity of a BLK range (mmio block-data-window(s)), or a PMEM range (DAX-capable persistent memory or volatile memory), without regard for aliasing. Aliasing, in the dimm-local address space (DPA), is resolved by metadata on a dimm to designate which exclusive interface will access the aliased DPA ranges. Support for the per-dimm metadata/label arrvies is in a subsequent patch. The name format of "region" devices is "regionN" where, like dimms, N is a global ida index assigned at discovery time. This id is not reliable across reboots nor in the presence of hotplug. Look to attributes of the region or static id-data of the sub-namespace to generate a persistent name. However, if the platform configuration does not change it is reasonable to expect the same region id to be assigned at the next boot. "region"s have 2 generic attributes "size", and "mapping"s where: - size: the BLK accessible capacity or the span of the system physical address range in the case of PMEM. - mappingN: a tuple describing a dimm's contribution to the region's capacity in the format (<nmemX>,<dpa>,<size>). For a PMEM-region there will be at least one mapping per dimm in the interleave set. For a BLK-region there is only "mapping0" listing the starting DPA of the BLK-region and the available DPA capacity of that space (matches "size" above). The max number of mappings per "region" is hard coded per the constraints of sysfs attribute groups. That said the number of mappings per region should never exceed the maximum number of possible dimms in the system. If the current number turns out to not be enough then the "mappings" attribute clarifies how many there are supposed to be. "32 should be enough for anybody...".

2015-06-24libnvdimm, nvdimm: dimm driver and base libnvdimm device-driver infrastructureDan Williams
* Implement the device-model infrastructure for loading modules and attaching drivers to nvdimm devices. This is a simple association of a nd-device-type number with a driver that has a bitmask of supported device types. To facilitate userspace bind/unbind operations 'modalias' and 'devtype', that also appear in the uevent, are added as generic sysfs attributes for all nvdimm devices. The reason for the device-type number is to support sub-types within a given parent devtype, be it a vendor-specific sub-type or otherwise. * The first consumer of this infrastructure is the driver for dimm devices. It simply uses control messages to retrieve and store the configuration-data image (label set) from each dimm. Note: nd_device_register() arranges for asynchronous registration of nvdimm bus devices by default.

2015-06-24libnvdimm: control (ioctl) messages for nvdimm_bus and nvdimm devicesDan Williams
Most discovery/configuration of the nvdimm-subsystem is done via sysfs attributes. However, some nvdimm_bus instances, particularly the ACPI.NFIT bus, define a small set of messages that can be passed to the platform. For convenience we derive the initial libnvdimm-ioctl command formats directly from the NFIT DSM Interface Example formats. ND_CMD_SMART: media health and diagnostics ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_SIZE: size of the label space ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_DATA: read label space ND_CMD_SET_CONFIG_DATA: write label space ND_CMD_VENDOR: vendor-specific command passthrough ND_CMD_ARS_CAP: report address-range-scrubbing capabilities ND_CMD_ARS_START: initiate scrubbing ND_CMD_ARS_STATUS: report on scrubbing state ND_CMD_SMART_THRESHOLD: configure alarm thresholds for smart events If a platform later defines different commands than this set it is straightforward to extend support to those formats. Most of the commands target a specific dimm. However, the address-range-scrubbing commands target the bus. The 'commands' attribute in sysfs of an nvdimm_bus, or nvdimm, enumerate the supported commands for that object.

2015-06-24libnvdimm, nfit: dimm/memory-devicesDan Williams
Enable nvdimm devices to be registered on a nvdimm_bus. The kernel assigned device id for nvdimm devicesis dynamic. If userspace needs a more static identifier it should consult a provider-specific attribute. In the case where NFIT is the provider, the 'nmemX/nfit/handle' or 'nmemX/nfit/serial' attributes may be used for this purpose.

2015-06-24libnvdimm: control character device and nvdimm_bus sysfs attributesDan Williams
The control device for a nvdimm_bus is registered as an "nd" class device. The expectation is that there will usually only be one "nd" bus registered under /sys/class/nd. However, we allow for the possibility of multiple buses and they will listed in discovery order as ndctl0...ndctlN. This character device hosts the ioctl for passing control messages. The initial command set has a 1:1 correlation with the commands listed in the by the "NFIT DSM Example" document [1], but this scheme is extensible to future command sets. Note, nd_ioctl() and the backing ->ndctl() implementation are defined in a subsequent patch. This is simply the initial registrations and sysfs attributes.

2015-06-24libnvdimm, nfit: initial libnvdimm infrastructure and NFIT supportDan Williams
A struct nvdimm_bus is the anchor device for registering nvdimm resources and interfaces, for example, a character control device, nvdimm devices, and I/O region devices. The ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table) is one possible platform description for such non-volatile memory resources in a system. The nfit.ko driver attaches to the "ACPI0012" device that indicates the presence of the NFIT and parses the table to register a struct nvdimm_bus instance.
