16ecf8cecd libnvdimm/namespace: Fix reaping of invalidated block-window-namespace labels
commit 2dd2a1740ee19cd2636d247276cf27bfa434b0e2 upstream.

A recent change to ndctl to attempt to reconfigure namespaces in place
uncovered a label accounting problem in block-window-type namespaces.
The ndctl "create.sh" test is able to trigger this signature:

 WARNING: CPU: 34 PID: 9167 at drivers/nvdimm/label.c:1100 __blk_label_update+0x9a3/0xbc0 [libnvdimm]
 [..]
 RIP: 0010:__blk_label_update+0x9a3/0xbc0 [libnvdimm]
 [..]
 Call Trace:
  uuid_store+0x21b/0x2f0 [libnvdimm]
  kernfs_fop_write+0xcf/0x1c0
  vfs_write+0xcc/0x380
  ksys_write+0x68/0xe0

When allocated capacity for a namespace is renamed (new UUID) the labels
with the old UUID need to be deleted. The ndctl behavior to always
destroy namespaces on reconfiguration hid this problem.

The immediate impact of this bug is limited since block-window-type
namespaces only seem to exist in the specification and not in any
shipping products. However, the label handling code is being reused for
other technologies like CXL region labels, so there is a benefit to
making sure both vertical labels sets (block-window) and horizontal
label sets (pmem) have a functional reference implementation in
libnvdimm.

Unfortunately those reports were typically with a busy parallel
namespace creation / destruction loop making it difficult to see the
components of the bug. However, Jane provided a simple reproducer using
the work-in-progress sub-section implementation.

When ndctl is reconfiguring a namespace it may take an existing defunct
/ disabled namespace and reconfigure it with a new uuid and other
parameters. Critically namespace_update_uuid() takes existing address
resources and renames them for the new namespace to use / reconfigure as
it sees fit. The bug is that this rename only happens in the resource
tracking tree. Existing labels with the old uuid are not reaped leading
to a scenario where multiple active labels reference the same span of
address range.

Teach namespace_update_uuid() to flag any references to the old uuid for
reaping at the next label update attempt.

d5d30d5a5c libnvdimm/dimm: Add a no-BLK quirk based on NVDIMM family
As Dexuan reports the NVDIMM_FAMILY_HYPERV platform is incompatible with
the existing Linux namespace implementation because it uses
NSLABEL_FLAG_LOCAL for x1-width PMEM interleave sets. Quirk it as an

libnvdimm core to assume no potential for aliasing. In case other
implementations make the same mistake, provide a "noblk" module
parameter to force-enable the quirk.

966d23a006 libnvdimm/label: Clear 'updating' flag after label-set update
The UEFI 2.7 specification sets expectations that the 'updating' flag is
eventually cleared. To date, the libnvdimm core has never adhered to
that protocol. The policy of the core matches the policy of other
multi-device info-block formats like MD-Software-RAID that expect
administrator intervention on inconsistent info-blocks, not automatic
invalidation.

However, some pre-boot environments may unfortunately attempt to "clean
up" the labels and invalidate a set when it fails to find at least one
"non-updating" label in the set. Clear the updating flag after set
updates to minimize the window of vulnerability to aggressive pre-boot
environments.

Ideally implementations would not write to the label area outside of
creating namespaces.

Note that this only minimizes the window, it does not close it as the
system can still crash while clearing the flag and the set can be
subsequently deleted / invalidated by the pre-boot environment.

7d47aad457 nvdimm: Use namespace index data to reduce number of label reads needed
This patch adds logic that is meant to make use of the namespace index data
to reduce the number of reads that are needed to initialize a given
namespace. The general idea is that once we have enough data to validate
the namespace index we do so and then proceed to fetch only those labels
that are not listed as being "free". By doing this I am seeing a total time
reduction from about 4-5 seconds to 2-3 seconds for 24 NVDIMM modules each
with 128K of label config area.

2d657d17f7 nvdimm: Split label init out from the logic for getting config data
This patch splits the initialization of the label data into two functions.
One for doing the init, and another for reading the actual configuration
data. The idea behind this is that by doing this we create a symmetry
between the getting and setting of config data in that we have a function
for both. In addition it will make it easier for us to identify the bits
that are related to init versus the pieces that are a wrapper for reading
data from the ACPI interface.

So for example by splitting things out like this it becomes much more
obvious that we were performing checks that weren't necessarily related to
the set/get operations such as relying on ndd->data being present when the
set and get ops should not care about a locally cached copy of the label
area.

1cfeb66e8e nvdimm: Clarify comment in sizeof_namespace_index
When working on the label code I found it rather confusing to see several
spots that reference a minimum label size of 256 while working with labels
that are 128 bytes in size.

This patch is meant to provide a clarification on one of the comments that
was at the heart of the issue. Specifically for version 1.2 and later of
the namespace specification the minimum label size is 256, prior to that
the minimum label size was 128. So we should state that as such to avoid
confusion.

b18d4b8a25 libnvdimm, namespace: fix label initialization to use valid seq numbers
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.

0288176869 libnvdimm, label: fix index block size calculation
The old calculation assumed that the label space was 128k and the label
size is 128. With v1.2 labels where the label size is 256 this
calculation will return zero. We are saved by the fact that the
nsindex_size is always pre-initialized from a previous 128 byte
assumption and we are lucky that the index sizes turn out the same.

Fix this going forward in case we start encountering different
geometries of label areas besides 128k.

Since the label size can change from one call to the next, drop the
caching of nsindex_size.

b3fde74ea1 libnvdimm, label: add address abstraction identifiers
Starting with v1.2 labels, 'address abstractions' can be hinted via an
address abstraction id that implies an info-block format. The standard
address abstraction in the specification is the v2 format of the
Block-Translation-Table (BTT). Support for that is saved for a later
patch, for now we add support for the Linux supported address
abstractions BTT (v1), PFN, and DAX.

The new 'holder_class' attribute for namespace devices is added for
tooling to specify the 'abstraction_guid' to store in the namespace label.
For v1.1 labels this field is undefined and any setting of
'holder_class' away from the default 'none' value will only have effect
until the driver is unloaded. Setting 'holder_class' requires that
whatever device tries to claim the namespace must be of the specified
class.

564e871aa6 libnvdimm, label: add v1.2 nvdimm label definitions
In support of improved interoperability between operating systems and pre-boot
environments the Intel proposed NVDIMM Namespace Specification [1], has been
adopted and modified to the the UEFI 2.7 NVDIMM Label Protocol [2].

Update the definitions of the namespace label data structures so that the new
format can be supported alongside the existing label format.

The new specification changes the default label size to 256 bytes, so
everywhere that relied on sizeof(struct nd_namespace_label) must now use the
sizeof_namespace_label() helper.

There should be no functional differences from these changes as the
default is still the v1.1 128-byte format. Future patches will move the
default to the v1.2 definition.

interface and use the byte-aligned ->rw_bytes() interface.

The BTT driver is the initial first consumer of this mechanism to allow
adding atomic sector update semantics to a pmem or blk namespace.  This
patch is the sysfs infrastructure to allow configuring a BTT instance
for a namespace.  Enabling that BTT and performing i/o is in a
subsequent patch.

0ba1c63489 libnvdimm: write blk label set
After 'uuid', 'size', 'sector_size', and optionally 'alt_name' have been
set to valid values the labels on the dimm can be updated.  The
difference with the pmem case is that blk namespaces are limited to one
dimm and can cover discontiguous ranges in dpa space.

Also, after allocating label slots, it is useful for userspace to know
how many slots are left.  Export this information in sysfs.

f524bf271a libnvdimm: write pmem label set
After 'uuid', 'size', and optionally 'alt_name' have been set to valid
values the labels on the dimms can be updated.

Write procedure is:
1/ Allocate and write new labels in the "next" index
2/ Free the old labels in the working copy
3/ Write the bitmap and the label space on the dimm
4/ Write the index to make the update valid

Label ranges directly mirror the dpa resource values for the given
label_id of the namespace.

bf9bccc14c libnvdimm: pmem label sets and namespace instantiation.
A complete label set is a PMEM-label per-dimm per-interleave-set where
all the UUIDs match and the interleave set cookie matches the hosting
interleave set.

Present sysfs attributes for manipulation of a PMEM-namespace's
'alt_name', 'uuid', and 'size' attributes.  A later patch will make
these settings persistent by writing back the label.

Note that PMEM allocations grow forwards from the start of an interleave
set (lowest dimm-physical-address (DPA)).  BLK-namespaces that alias
with a PMEM interleave set will grow allocations backward from the
highest DPA.

4a826c83db libnvdimm: namespace indices: read and validate
This on media label format [1] consists of two index blocks followed by
an array of labels.  None of these structures are ever updated in place.
A sequence number tracks the current active index and the next one to
write, while labels are written to free slots.

After reading valid labels, store the dpa ranges they claim into
per-dimm resource trees.
