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.

Pull more ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Two more fixes in ACPI drivers, one in the ACPI EC driver
(stable-candidate) and one in the ACPI button driver.
Specifics:
- An ACPI EC driver fix from the 4.3 cycle may cause the ACPICA's
method reentrancy limit to be exceeded for a _Qxx method due to a
large number of concurrent EC operations, so prevent that from
happening by moving the EC handling into a separate workqueue with
a limit on the number of concurrently executed work items (Lv
Zheng)
- Fix the cleanup code in the ACPI button driver that forgets to
clear two variables on exit which causes an error to occur on the
next attmpt to load the driver (Benjamin Tissoires)"

A regression is caused by the following commit:
Commit: 02b771b64b73226052d6e731a0987db3b47281e9
Subject: ACPI / EC: Fix an issue caused by the serialized _Qxx evaluations
In this commit, using system workqueue causes that the maximum parallel
executions of _Qxx can exceed 255. This violates the method reentrancy
limit in ACPICA and generates the following error log:
ACPI Error: Method reached maximum reentrancy limit (255) (20150818/dsmethod-341)
This patch creates a seperate workqueue and limits the number of parallel
_Qxx evaluations down to a configurable value (can be tuned against number
of online CPUs).
Since EC events are handled after driver probe, we can create the workqueue
in acpi_ec_init().

When we removed the procfs dir on error or if the driver is
unbound, the two variables acpi_lid_dir and acpi_button_dir
were not reset. On the next rebind, those static variables
were not null and we couldn't re-register the device again.

There was only one use of __initdata_refok and __exit_refok
__init_refok was used 46 times against 82 for __ref.
Those definitions are obsolete since commit 312b1485fb50 ("Introduce new
section reference annotations tags: __ref, __refdata, __refconst")
This patch removes the following compatibility definitions and replaces
them treewide.
/* compatibility defines */
#define __init_refok __ref
#define __initdata_refok __refdata
#define __exit_refok __ref
I can also provide separate patches if necessary.
(One patch per tree and check in 1 month or 2 to remove old definitions)

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
- Replace pcommit with ADR / directed-flushing.
The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is
deprecated. Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement
either ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm.
ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers
to the memory controller on a power-fail event.
Flush addresses are defined in ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware
Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure: "Flush Hint Address Structure".
A flush hint is an mmio address that when written and fenced assures
that all previous posted writes targeting a given dimm have been
flushed to media.
- On-demand ARS (address range scrub).
Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks
in pmem devices. When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the
media to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a
re-scrub at any time.
- Support for the Microsoft DSM (device specific method) command
format.
- Support for EDK2/OVMF virtual disk device memory ranges.
- Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem.

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The new feaures here are the support for ACPI overlays (allowing ACPI
tables to be loaded at any time from EFI variables or via configfs)
and the LPI (Low-Power Idle) support. Also notable is the ACPI-based
NUMA support for ARM64.
Apart from that we have two new drivers, for the DPTF (Dynamic Power
and Thermal Framework) power participant device and for the Intel
Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC, some more PMIC-related changes, support for
the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and support for
platform-initiated graceful shutdown.
Plus two new pieces of documentation and usual assorted fixes and
cleanups in quite a few places.
Specifics:
- Support for ACPI SSDT overlays allowing Secondary System
Description Tables (SSDTs) to be loaded at any time from EFI
variables or via configfs (Octavian Purdila, Mika Westerberg).
- Support for the ACPI LPI (Low-Power Idle) feature introduced in
ACPI 6.0 and allowing processor idle states to be represented in
ACPI tables in a hierarchical way (with the help of Processor
Container objects) and support for ACPI idle states management on
ARM64, based on LPI (Sudeep Holla).
- General improvements of ACPI support for NUMA and ARM64 support for
ACPI-based NUMA (Hanjun Guo, David Daney, Robert Richter).
- General improvements of the ACPI table upgrade mechanism and ARM64
support for that feature (Aleksey Makarov, Jon Masters).
- Support for the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and
improvements of kernel messages printed by the error injection code
(Huang Ying, Borislav Petkov).
- New driver for the Intel Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC operation region
and support for the REGS operation region on Broxton, PMIC code
cleanups (Bin Gao, Felipe Balbi, Paul Gortmaker).
- New driver for the power participant device which is part of the
Dynamic Power and Thermal Framework (DPTF) and DPTF-related code
reorganization (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Support for the platform-initiated graceful shutdown feature
introduced in ACPI 6.1 (Prashanth Prakash).
- ACPI button driver update related to lid input events generated
automatically on initialization and system resume that have been
problematic for some time (Lv Zheng).
- ACPI EC driver cleanups (Lv Zheng).
- Documentation of the ACPICA release automation process and the
in-kernel ACPI AML debugger (Lv Zheng).
- New blacklist entry and two fixes for the ACPI backlight driver
(Alex Hung, Arvind Yadav, Ralf Gerbig).
- Cleanups of the ACPI pci_slot driver (Joe Perches, Paul Gortmaker).
- ACPI CPPC code changes to make it more robust against possible
defects in ACPI tables and new symbol definitions for PCC (Hoan
Tran).
- System reboot code modification to execute the ACPI _PTS (Prepare

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.

Normally, an ARS (Address Range Scrub) only happens at
boot/initialization time. There can however arise situations where a
bus-wide rescan is needed - notably, in the case of discovering a latent
media error, we should do a full rescan to figure out what other sectors
are bad, and thus potentially avoid triggering an mce on them in the
future. Also provide a sysfs trigger to start a bus-wide scrub.

Pull libnvdimm fix from Dan Williams:
"This contains a regression fix for a problem that was introduced in
v4.7-rc6.
In 4.7-rc1 we introduced auto-probing for the ACPI DSM (device-
specific-method) format that the platform firmware implements for
nvdimm devices. We initially fixed a regression in probing the QEMU
DSM implementation by making acpi_check_dsm() tolerant of the way QEMU
reports the "0 DSMs supported" condition.
However, that broke HPE platforms since that tolerance caused the
driver to mistakenly match the 1-zero-byte response those platforms
give to "unknown" commands. Instead, we simply make the driver
tolerant of not finding any supported DSMs. This has been tested to
work with both QEMU and HPE platforms.
This commit has appeared in a -next release with no reported issues"

While testing the new on-demand ARS patches we discovered that
differences between the nfit_test and normal nfit driver shutdown paths
can leak resources. Unify the shutdown paths to trigger via a devm_
callback when the acpi_desc->dev is unbound from its driver.

ACPI 6.0 introduced an optional object _LPI that provides an alternate
method to describe Low Power Idle states. It defines the local power
states for each node in a hierarchical processor topology. The OSPM can
use _LPI object to select a local power state for each level of processor
hierarchy in the system. They used to produce a composite power state
request that is presented to the platform by the OSPM.
Since multiple processors affect the idle state for any non-leaf hierarchy
node, coordination of idle state requests between the processors is
required. ACPI supports two different coordination schemes: Platform
coordinated and OS initiated.
This patch adds initial support for Platform coordination scheme of LPI.

acpi_evaluate_object() allocates memory. Free the buffer allocated
during acpi_nfit_add(). In order for this memory to be freed
acpi_nfit_init() needs to be converted to duplicate the nfit contents in
its internal allocation. Use zero-length arrays to minimize the thrash
with the rest of the nfit driver implementation.
All of the add_<nfit-sub-table>() routines now validate a minimum table
size and expect hotplugged tables to match the size of the original
table to count as a duplicate. For variable length tables, like 'idt'
and 'flush', we calculate the dynamic size. Note that hotplug by
definition cannot change the interleave as it would cause data
corruption of in-use namespaces.

This patch adds logic to treat virtual ramdisk SPA as pmem region, then
ramdisk's /dev/pmem* device can be mounted with iso9660.
It's useful to work with the httpboot in EFI firmware to pull a remote
ISO file to the local memory region for booting and installation.
Wiki page of UEFI HTTPBoot with OVMF:
https://en.opensuse.org/UEFI_HTTPBoot_with_OVMF
The ramdisk function in EDK2/OVMF generates a ACPI0012 root device that
it contains empty _STA but without _DSM:
DefinitionBlock ("ssdt2.aml", "SSDT", 2, "INTEL ", "RamDisk ", 0x00001000)
{
Scope (\_SB)
{
Device (NVDR)
{
Name (_HID, "ACPI0012") // _HID: Hardware ID
Name (_STR, Unicode ("NVDIMM Root Device")) // _STR: Description String
Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized) // _STA: Status
{
Return (0x0F)
}
}
}
}
In section 5.2.25.2 of ACPI 6.1 spec, it mentions that the "SPA Range
Structure Index" of virtual SPA shall be set to zero. That means virtual SPA
will not be associated by any NVDIMM region mapping.
The VCD's SPA Range Structure in NFIT is similar to virtual disk region
as following:
[028h 0040 2] Subtable Type : 0000 [System Physical Address Range]
[02Ah 0042 2] Length : 0038
[02Ch 0044 2] Range Index : 0000
[02Eh 0046 2] Flags (decoded below) : 0000
Add/Online Operation Only : 0
Proximity Domain Valid : 0
[030h 0048 4] Reserved : 00000000
[034h 0052 4] Proximity Domain : 00000000
[038h 0056 16] Address Range GUID : 77AB535A-45FC-624B-5560-F7B281D1F96E
[048h 0072 8] Address Range Base : 00000000B6ABD018
[050h 0080 8] Address Range Length : 0000000005500000
[058h 0088 8] Memory Map Attribute : 0000000000000000
The way to not associate a SPA range is to never reference it from a "flush hint",
"interleave", or "control region" table.
After testing on OVMF, pmem driver can support the region that it doesn't
assoicate to any NVDIMM mapping. So, treat VCD like pmem is a idea to get
a pmem block device that it contains iso.
v4:
Instoduce nfit_spa_is_virtual() to check virtual ramdisk SPA and create
pmem region.
v3:
To simplify patch, removed useless VCD region in libnvdimm.
v2:
Removed the code for setting VCD to a read-only region.

(DPTF) Platform Power Participant device (INT3407) support.
This participant is responsible for exposing platform telemetry such as:
max_platform_power
platform_power_source
adapter_rating
battery_steady_power
charger_type
These attributes are presented via sysfs interface under the INT3407
platform device:
$ls /sys/bus/platform/devices/INT3407\:00/dptf_power/
adapter_rating_mw
battery_steady_power_mw
charger_type
max_platform_power_mw
platform_power_source
`
ACPI methods description used in this driver:
PMAX: Maximum platform power that can be supported by the battery in
mW.
PSRC: System charge source,
0x00 = DC
0x01 = AC
0x02 = USB
0x03 = Wireless Charger
ARTG: Adapter rating in mW (Maximum Adapter power) Must be 0 if no
AC adapter is plugged in.
CTYP: Charger Type,
Traditional : 0x01
Hybrid: 0x02
NVDC: 0x03
PBSS: Returns max sustained power for battery in milliWatts.
The INT3407 also contains _BTS and _BIX objects, which are compliant to
ACPI 5.0, specification. Those objects are already used by ACPI battery
(PNP0C0A) driver and information about them is exported via Linux power
supply class registration.

Commit 4995734e973a "acpi, nfit: fix acpi_check_dsm() vs zero functions
implemented" attempted to fix a QEMU regression by supporting its usage
of a zero-mask as a valid response to a DSM-family probe request.
However, this behavior breaks HP platforms that return a zero-mask by
default causing the probe to misidentify the DSM-family.
Instead, the QEMU regression can be fixed by simply not requiring the DSM
family to be identified.
This effectively reverts commit 4995734e973a, and removes the DSM
requirement from the init path.

As part of the hotplug cleanup, the CPU_STARTING/DYING actions are going

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.

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.
