2015-11-29lightnvm: unconverted ppa returned in get_bb_tblMatias Bjørling1-1/+1
The get_bb_tbl function takes ppa as a generic address, which is converted to the ppa device address within the device driver. When the update_bbtbl callback is called from get_bb_tbl, the device specific ppa is used, instead of the generic ppa. Make sure to pass the generic ppa.

2015-11-20lightnvm: add free and bad lun info to show lunsJavier Gonzalez1-2/+2
Add free block, used block, and bad block information to the show debug interface. This information is used to debug how targets track blocks. Also, change debug function name to make it more generic. Signed-off-by: Javier Gonzalez <javier@cnexlabs.com> Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling <m@bjorling.me> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2015-11-20lightnvm: keep track of block countsJavier Gonzalez1-0/+2
Maintain number of in use blocks, free blocks, and bad blocks in a per lun basis. This allows the upper layers to get information about the state of each lun. Also, account for blocks reserved to the device on the free block count. nr_free_blocks matches now the actual number of blocks on the free list when the device is booted.

2015-11-16lightnvm: remove linear and device addr modesMatias Bjørling1-120/+34
The linear and device specific address modes can be replaced with a simple offset and bit length conversion that is generic across all devices. This both simplifies the specification and removes the special case for qemu nvme, that previously relied on the linear address mapping.

2015-11-16lightnvm: remove unused attrs in nvm_id structsMatias Bjørling1-6/+1
The nvm_id, nvm_id_group and nvm_addr_format data structures contain reserved attributes. They are unused by media managers and targets. Remove them. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling <m@bjorling.me> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2015-11-16lightnvm: expose mccap in identify commandMatias Bjørling1-0/+1
The mccap field is required for I/O command option support. It defines the following flash access modes: * SLC mode * Erase/Program Suspension * Scramble On/Off * Encryption It is slotted in between mpos and cpar, changing the offset for cpar as well.

2015-11-16lightnvm: update bad block table formatMatias Bjørling1-3/+3
The specification was changed to reflect a multi-value bad block table. Instead of bit-based bad block table, the bad block table now allows eight bad block categories. Currently four are defined: * Factory bad blocks * Grown bad blocks * Device-side reserved blocks * Host-side reserved blocks The factory and grown bad blocks are the regular bad blocks. The reserved blocks are either for internal use or external use. In particular, the device-side reserved blocks allows the host to bootstrap from a limited number of flash blocks. Reducing the flash blocks to scan upon super block initialization. Support for both get bad block table and set bad block table is added.

2015-11-16lightnvm: change max_phys_sect to uintMatias Bjørling1-1/+1
The max_phys_sect variable is defined as a char. We do a boundary check to maximally allow 256 physical page descriptors per command. As we are not indexing from zero. This expression is always false. Bump the max_phys_sect to an unsigned int to support the range check.

2015-11-07block: change ->make_request_fn() and users to return a queue cookieJens Axboe1-1/+1
No functional changes in this patch, but it prepares us for returning a more useful cookie related to the IO that was queued up. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com> Acked-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Acked-by: Keith Busch <keith.busch@intel.com>
2015-11-03lightnvm: refactor phys addrs type to u64Matias Bjørling1-14/+14
For cases where CONFIG_LBDAF is not set. The struct ppa_addr exceeds its type on 32 bit architectures. ppa_addr requires a 64bit integer to hold the generic ppa format. We therefore refactor it to u64 and replaces the sector_t usages with u64 for physical addresses. Signed-off-by: Matias Bjørling <m@bjorling.me> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2015-10-29lightnvm: Support for Open-Channel SSDsMatias Bjørling1-0/+522
Open-channel SSDs are devices that share responsibilities with the host in order to implement and maintain features that typical SSDs keep strictly in firmware. These include (i) the Flash Translation Layer (FTL), (ii) bad block management, and (iii) hardware units such as the flash controller, the interface controller, and large amounts of flash chips. In this way, Open-channels SSDs exposes direct access to their physical flash storage, while keeping a subset of the internal features of SSDs. LightNVM is a specification that gives support to Open-channel SSDs LightNVM allows the host to manage data placement, garbage collection, and parallelism. Device specific responsibilities such as bad block management, FTL extensions to support atomic IOs, or metadata persistence are still handled by the device. The implementation of LightNVM consists of two parts: core and (multiple) targets. The core implements functionality shared across targets. This is initialization, teardown and statistics. The targets implement the interface that exposes physical flash to user-space applications. Examples of such targets include key-value store, object-store, as well as traditional block devices, which can be application-specific.
