This commit:
5fdf8e5ba5 ("libnvdimm: re-enable deep flush for pmem devices via fsync()")
intended to make sure that deep flush was always available even on
platforms which support a power-fail protected CPU cache. An unintended
side effect of this change was that we also lost the ability to skip
flushing CPU caches on those power-fail protected CPU cache.
Fix this by skipping the low level cache flushing in dax_flush() if we have
CPU caches which are power-fail protected. The user can still override this
behavior by manually setting the write_cache state of a namespace. See
libndctl's ndctl_namespace_write_cache_is_enabled(),
ndctl_namespace_enable_write_cache() and
ndctl_namespace_disable_write_cache() functions.

The persistence domain is a point in the platform where once writes
reach that destination the platform claims it will make them persistent
relative to power loss. In the ACPI NFIT this is currently communicated
as 2 bits in the "NFIT - Platform Capabilities Structure". The bits
comprise a hierarchy, i.e. bit0 "CPU Cache Flush to NVDIMM Durability on
Power Loss Capable" implies bit1 "Memory Controller Flush to NVDIMM
Durability on Power Loss Capable".
Commit 96c3a23905 "libnvdimm: expose platform persistence attr..."

The pmem driver has a need to transfer data with a persistent memory
destination and be able to rely on the fact that the destination writes are not
cached. It is sufficient for the writes to be flushed to a cpu-store-buffer
(non-temporal / "movnt" in x86 terms), as we expect userspace to call fsync()
to ensure data-writes have reached a power-fail-safe zone in the platform. The
fsync() triggers a REQ_FUA or REQ_FLUSH to the pmem driver which will turn
around and fence previous writes with an "sfence".
Implement a __copy_from_user_inatomic_flushcache, memcpy_page_flushcache, and
memcpy_flushcache, that guarantee that the destination buffer is not dirty in
the cpu cache on completion. The new copy_from_iter_flushcache and sub-routines
will be used to replace the "pmem api" (include/linux/pmem.h +
arch/x86/include/asm/pmem.h). The availability of copy_from_iter_flushcache()
and memcpy_flushcache() are gated by the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_UACCESS_FLUSHCACHE
config symbol, and fallback to copy_from_iter_nocache() and plain memcpy()
otherwise.
This is meant to satisfy the concern from Linus that if a driver wants to do
something beyond the normal nocache semantics it should be something private to
that driver [1], and Al's concern that anything uaccess related belongs with
the rest of the uaccess code [2].
The first consumer of this interface is a new 'copy_from_iter' dax operation so
that pmem can inject cache maintenance operations without imposing this
overhead on other dax-capable drivers.

Toshi noticed that the new support for a region-level badblocks missed
the case where errors are cleared due to BTT I/O.
An initial attempt to fix this ran into a "sleeping while atomic"
warning due to taking the nvdimm_bus_lock() in the BTT I/O path to
satisfy the locking requirements of __nvdimm_bus_badblocks_clear().
However, that lock is not needed since we are not acting on any data that
is subject to change under that lock. The badblocks instance has its own
internal lock to handle mutations of the error list.
So, in order to make it clear that we are just acting on region devices,
rename __nvdimm_bus_badblocks_clear() to nvdimm_clear_badblocks_regions().
Eliminate the lock and consolidate all support routines for the new
nvdimm_account_cleared_poison() in drivers/nvdimm/bus.c. Finally, to the
opportunity to cleanup to some unnecessary casts, make the calling
convention of nvdimm_clear_badblocks_regions() clearer by replacing struct
resource with the minimal struct clear_badblocks_context, and use the

The nvdimm_flush() mechanism helps to reduce the impact of an ADR
(asynchronous-dimm-refresh) failure. The ADR mechanism handles flushing
platform WPQ (write-pending-queue) buffers when power is removed. The
nvdimm_flush() mechanism performs that same function on-demand.
When a pmem namespace is associated with a block device, an
nvdimm_flush() is triggered with every block-layer REQ_FUA, or REQ_FLUSH
request. These requests are typically associated with filesystem
metadata updates. However, when a namespace is in device-dax mode,
userspace (think database metadata) needs another path to perform the
same flushing. In other words this is not required to make data
persistent, but in the case of metadata it allows for a smaller failure
domain in the unlikely event of an ADR failure.
The new 'deep_flush' attribute is visible when the individual DIMMs
backing a given interleave-set are described by platform firmware. In
ACPI terms this is "NVDIMM Region Mapping Structures" and associated
"Flush Hint Address Structures". Reads return "1" if the region supports
triggering WPQ flushes on all DIMMs. Reads return "0" the flush
operation is a platform nop, and in that case the attribute is
read-only.
Why sysfs and not an ioctl? An ioctl requires establishing a new
ioctl function number space for device-dax. Given that this would be
called on a device-dax fd an application could be forgiven for
accidentally calling this on a filesystem-dax fd. Placing this interface
in libnvdimm sysfs removes that potential for collision with a
filesystem ioctl, and it keeps ioctls out of the generic device-dax
implementation.

The interleave-set cookie is a sum that sanity checks the composition of
an interleave set has not changed from when the namespace was initially
created. The checksum is calculated by sorting the DIMMs by their
location in the interleave-set. The comparison for the sort must be
64-bit wide, not byte-by-byte as performed by memcmp() in the broken
case.
Fix the implementation to accept correct cookie values in addition to
the Linux "memcmp" order cookies, but only allow correct cookies to be
generated going forward. It does mean that namespaces created by
third-party-tooling, or created by newer kernels with this fix, will not
validate on older kernels. However, there are a couple mitigating
conditions:
1/ platforms with namespace-label capable NVDIMMs are not widely
available.
2/ interleave-sets with a single-dimm are by definition not affected
(nothing to sort). This covers the QEMU-KVM NVDIMM emulation case.
The cookie stored in the namespace label will be fixed by any write the
namespace label, the most straightforward way to achieve this is to
write to the "alt_name" attribute of a namespace in sysfs.

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.

and set it to a new numa_node field of nd_region_desc, which is then
conveyed to the nd_region device.
The device core arranges for btt and namespace devices to inherit their
node from their parent region.

Upon detection of an unarmed dimm in a region, arrange for descendant
BTT, PMEM, or BLK instances to be read-only. A dimm is primarily marked
"unarmed" via flags passed by platform firmware (NFIT).
The flags in the NFIT memory device sub-structure indicate the state of
the data on the nvdimm relative to its energy source or last "flush to
persistence". For the most part there is nothing the driver can do but
advertise the state of these flags in sysfs and emit a message if
firmware indicates that the contents of the device may be corrupted.
However, for the case of ACPI_NFIT_MEM_ARMED, the driver can arrange for
the block devices incorporating that nvdimm to be marked read-only.
This is a safe default as the data is still available and new writes are
held off until the administrator either forces read-write mode, or the
energy source becomes armed.
A 'read_only' attribute is added to REGION devices to allow for
overriding the default read-only policy of all descendant block devices.

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.
