commit 41fce90f26333c4fa82e8e43b9ace86c4e8a0120 upstream.

The following namespace configuration attempt:

    # ndctl create-namespace -e namespace0.0 -m devdax -a 1G -f
    libndctl: ndctl_dax_enable: dax0.1: failed to enable
      Error: namespace0.0: failed to enable

    failed to reconfigure namespace: No such device or address

...fails when the backing memory range is not physically aligned to 1G:

    # cat /proc/iomem | grep Persistent
    210000000-30fffffff : Persistent Memory (legacy)

In the above example the 4G persistent memory range starts and ends on a
256MB boundary.

We handle this case correctly when needing to handle cases that violate
section alignment (128MB) collisions against "System RAM", and we simply
need to extend that padding/truncation for the 1GB alignment use case.

<title>libnvdimm: fix integer overflow static analysis warning</title>

commit 58738c495e15badd2015e19ff41f1f1ed55200bc upstream.

Dan reports:
    The patch 62232e45f4a2: "libnvdimm: control (ioctl) messages for
    nvdimm_bus and nvdimm devices" from Jun 8, 2015, leads to the
    following static checker warning:

            drivers/nvdimm/bus.c:1018 __nd_ioctl()
            warn: integer overflows 'buf_len'

    From a casual review, this seems like it might be a real bug.  On
    the first iteration we load some data into in_env[].  On the second
    iteration we read a use controlled "in_size" from nd_cmd_in_size().
    It can go up to UINT_MAX - 1.  A high number means we will fill the
    whole in_env[] buffer.  But we potentially keep looping and adding
    more to in_len so now it can be any value.

    It simple enough to change, but it feels weird that we keep looping
    even though in_env is totally full.  Shouldn't we just return an
    error if we don't have space for desc-&gt;in_num.

We keep looping because the size of the total input is allowed to be
bigger than the 'envelope' which is a subset of the payload that tells
us how much data to expect. For safety explicitly check that buf_len
does not overflow which is what the checker flagged.

commit 24e3a7fb60a9187e5df90e5fa655ffc94b9c4f77 upstream.

Due to a spec misinterpretation, the Linux implementation of the BTT log
area had different padding scheme from other implementations, such as
UEFI and NVML.

This fixes the padding scheme, and defaults to it for new BTT layouts.
We attempt to detect the padding scheme in use when probing for an
existing BTT. If we detect the older/incompatible scheme, we continue
using it.

commit 19deaa217bc04e83b59b5e8c8229eb0e53ad9efc upstream.

The alignment checks at pfn driver startup fail to properly account for
the 'start_pad' in the case where the namespace is misaligned relative
to its internal alignment. This is typically triggered in 1G aligned
namespace, but could theoretically trigger with small namespace
alignments. When this triggers the kernel reports messages of the form:

    dax2.1: bad offset: 0x3c000000 dax disabled align: 0x40000000

commit b18d4b8a25af6fe83d7692191d6ff962ea611c4f upstream.

The set of valid sequence numbers is {1,2,3}. The specification
indicates that an implementation should consider 0 a sign of a critical
error:

    UEFI 2.7: 13.19 NVDIMM Label Protocol

    Software never writes the sequence number 00, so a correctly
    check-summed Index Block with this sequence number probably indicates a
    critical error. When software discovers this case it treats it as an
    invalid Index Block indication.

While the expectation is that the invalid block is just thrown away, the
Robustness Principle says we should fix this to make both sequence
numbers valid.

commit 4e3f0701f25ab194c5362576b1146a1e6cc6c2e7 upstream.

__add_badblock_range() does not account sector alignment when
it sets 'num_sectors'.  Therefore, an ARS error record range
spanning across two sectors is set to a single sector length,
which leaves the 2nd sector unprotected.

Change __add_badblock_range() to set 'num_sectors' properly.

commit c13c43d54f2c6a3be1c675766778ac1ad8dfbfcc upstream.

btt_rw_page was not propagating errors frm btt_do_bvec, resulting in any
IO errors via the rw_page path going unnoticed. the pmem driver recently
fixed this in e10624f pmem: fail io-requests to known bad blocks
but same problem in BTT went neglected.

commit c13c43d54f2c6a3be1c675766778ac1ad8dfbfcc upstream.

btt_rw_page was not propagating errors frm btt_do_bvec, resulting in any
IO errors via the rw_page path going unnoticed. the pmem driver recently
fixed this in e10624f pmem: fail io-requests to known bad blocks
but same problem in BTT went neglected.

[ Upstream commit d47d1d27fd6206c18806440f6ebddf51a806be4f ]

The read_pmem() function uses memcpy_mcsafe() on x86 where an EFAULT
error code indicates a failed read.  Block I/O should use EIO to
indicate failure.  Other pmem code paths (like bad blocks) already use
EIO so let's be consistent.

This fixes compatibility with consumers like btrfs that try to parse the
specific error code rather than treat all errors the same.
