[PATCH 1/2]: nfit: Clarify memory device state flags strings

From: Toshi Kani
Date: Wed Aug 26 2015 - 12:38:33 EST


ACPI 6.0 NFIT Memory Device State Flags in Table 5-129 defines
NVDIMM status as follows. These bits indicate multiple info,
such as failures, pending event, and capability.

Bit [0] set to 1 to indicate that the previous SAVE to the
Memory Device failed.
Bit [1] set to 1 to indicate that the last RESTORE from the
Memory Device failed.
Bit [2] set to 1 to indicate that platform flush of data to
Memory Device failed. As a result, the restored data content
may be inconsistent even if SAVE and RESTORE do not indicate
failure.
Bit [3] set to 1 to indicate that the Memory Device is observed
to be not armed prior to OSPM hand off. A Memory Device is
considered armed if it is able to accept persistent writes.
Bit [4] set to 1 to indicate that the Memory Device observed
SMART and health events prior to OSPM handoff.
Bit [5] is set to 1 to indicate that platform firmware is
enabled to notify OSPM on SMART and health events related to
the memory device using Notify codes as specified in Section
5.6.6.

/sys/bus/nd/devices/nmemX/nfit/flags shows this flags info.
The output strings associated with the bits are "save", "restore",
"smart", etc., which can be confusing as they may be interpreted
as positive status, i.e. save succeeded.

Change the strings to be more descriptive per the ACPI spec.
Also add a string to bit 5 for completeness.

Change also the dev_info() message in acpi_nfit_register_dimms()
to be consistent with the sysfs flags strings.
