Platform reboots are expensive. Towards reducing downtime to apply
firmware updates the Intel NVDIMM command definition is growing support
for applying live firmware updates that only require temporarily
suspending memory traffic instead of a full reboot.

Follow-on commits add support for triggering firmware activation, this
patch only defines the commands, adds probe support, and validates that
they are blocked via the ioctl path. The ioctl-path block ensures that
the OS is in charge since these commands have side effects only the OS
can handle. Specifically firmware activation may cause the memory
controller to be quiesced on the order of 100s of milliseconds. In that
case Linux ensure the activation only takes place while the OS is in a
suspend state.

<content type='text'>
The ND_CMD_CALL format allows for a general passthrough of passlisted
commands targeting a given command set. However there is no validation
of the family index relative to what the bus supports.

- Update the NFIT bus implementation (the only one that supports
  ND_CMD_CALL passthrough) to also passlist the valid set of command
  family indices.

- Update the generic __nd_ioctl() path to validate that field on behalf
  of all implementations.

<title>ndctl/papr_scm,uapi: Add support for PAPR nvdimm specific methods</title>

<id>f517f7925b7b453cb83be06c268ba057b78e4792</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce support for PAPR NVDIMM Specific Methods (PDSM) in papr_scm
module and add the command family NVDIMM_FAMILY_PAPR to the white list
of NVDIMM command sets. Also advertise support for ND_CMD_CALL for the
nvdimm command mask and implement necessary scaffolding in the module
to handle ND_CMD_CALL ioctl and PDSM requests that we receive.

The layout of the PDSM request as we expect from libnvdimm/libndctl is
described in newly introduced uapi header 'papr_pdsm.h' which
defines a 'struct nd_pkg_pdsm' and a maximal union named
'nd_pdsm_payload'. These new structs together with 'struct nd_cmd_pkg'
for a pdsm envelop thats sent by libndctl to libnvdimm and serviced by
papr_scm in 'papr_scm_service_pdsm()'. The PDSM request is
communicated by member 'struct nd_cmd_pkg.nd_command' together with
other information on the pdsm payload (size-in, size-out).

The patch also introduces 'struct pdsm_cmd_desc' instances of which
are stored in an array __pdsm_cmd_descriptors[] indexed with PDSM cmd
and corresponding access function pdsm_cmd_desc() is
introduced. 'struct pdsm_cdm_desc' holds the service function for a
given PDSM and corresponding payload in/out sizes.

A new function papr_scm_service_pdsm() is introduced and is called from
papr_scm_ndctl() in case of a PDSM request is received via ND_CMD_CALL
command from libnvdimm. The function performs validation on the PDSM
payload based on info present in corresponding PDSM descriptor and if
valid calls the 'struct pdcm_cmd_desc.service' function to service the
PDSM.

The macro PAGE_SIZE isn't valid outside of the kernel, so it should not
appear in UAPI headers.

Furthermore, the actual machine page size could theoretically change from
an application's point of view if it's running in a container that gets
migrated to another machine (say 4K/ppc64 to 64K/ppc64).

<title>UAPI: ndctl: Fix g++-unsupported initialisation in headers</title>

The following code in the linux/ndctl header file:

	static inline const char *nvdimm_bus_cmd_name(unsigned cmd)
	{
		static const char * const names[] = {
			[ND_CMD_ARS_CAP] = "ars_cap",
			[ND_CMD_ARS_START] = "ars_start",
			[ND_CMD_ARS_STATUS] = "ars_status",
			[ND_CMD_CLEAR_ERROR] = "clear_error",
			[ND_CMD_CALL] = "cmd_call",
		};

		if (cmd &lt; ARRAY_SIZE(names) &amp;&amp; names[cmd])
			return names[cmd];
		return "unknown";
	}

is broken in a number of ways:

 (1) ARRAY_SIZE() is not generally defined.

 (2) g++ does not support "non-trivial" array initialisers fully yet.

 (3) Every file that calls this function will acquire a copy of names[].

The same goes for nvdimm_cmd_name().

Fix all three by converting to a switch statement where each case returns a
string.  That way if cmd is a constant, the compiler can trivially reduce it
and, if not, the compiler can use a shared lookup table if it thinks that is
more efficient.

A better way would be to remove these functions and their arrays from the
header entirely.

The arbitrary 4MB minimum namespace size turns out to be too large for
some environments. Quoting Cheng-mean Liu:

    In the case of emulated NVDIMM devices in the VM environment, there
    are scenarios that NVDIMM device with much smaller sizes are
    desired, for example, we might use a single enumerated NVDIMM DAX
    device for representing each container layer, which in some cases
    could be just a few KBs size.

PAGE_SIZE is the minimum where we can still support DAX of at least
a single page.

The kernel's ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command is based on a payload
definition that has become broken / out-of-sync with recent versions of
the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL definition. Deprecate the use of the
ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command in favor of the ND_CMD_CALL approach
taken by NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}, where we can manage the per-vendor
variance in userspace.

In a couple years, when the new scheme is widely deployed in userspace
packages, the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD support can be removed. For now
we prevent new binaries from compiling against the kernel header
definitions, but kernel still compatible with old binaries. The
libndctl.h [1] header is now the authoritative interface definition for
NVDIMM SMART.

Remove the command payloads that do not have an associated libnvdimm
ioctl. I.e. remove the payloads that would only ever be carried in the
ND_CMD_CALL envelope. This prevents userspace from growing unnecessary
dependencies on this kernel header when userspace already has everything
it needs to craft and send these commands.

ACPI 6.2 defines in section 9.20.7.2 that the OSPM may call a Start
ARS with Flags Bit [1] set upon receiving the 0x81 notification.

  Upon receiving the notification, the OSPM may decide to issue
  a Start ARS with Flags Bit [1] set to prepare for the retrieval
  of existing records and issue the Query ARS Status function to
  retrieve the records.

Add support to call a Start ARS from acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify()
with ND_ARS_RETURN_PREV_DATA set when HW_ERROR_SCRUB_ON is not set.
