[PATCH v12 5/6] ndctl/papr_scm,uapi: Add support for PAPR nvdimm specific methods

From: Vaibhav Jain
Date: Mon Jun 08 2020 - 17:13:00 EST


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 new 'struct nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg' header. This header is used
to communicate the PDSM request via member
'nd_cmd_pkg.nd_command' and size of payload that need to be
sent/received for servicing the PDSM.

A new function is_cmd_valid() is implemented that reads the args to
papr_scm_ndctl() and performs sanity tests on them. 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.

Changelog:

v11..v12:
* Updated a misleading comment in 'papr_pdsm.h' regarding payload
size. [ Ira ]

v10..v11:
* Moved in-lines 'nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg()' and 'pdsm_cmd_to_payload()' from
'papr_pdsm.h' header to 'papr_scm.c'. The avoids a potential license
incompatibility issue with non-GPL-2.0 user-space code trying to
include the header in its code. [ Ira ]
* Verified papr_pdsm.h with UAPI_HEADER_TEST config.
* Moved the is_cmd_valid() check in papr_scm_ndctl() before check for
cmd_rc == NULL. This prevents cmd_rc to be updated in case the
nd-cmd is invalid or unknown.

v9..v10:
* Simplified 'struct nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg' by removing the
'payload_version' field.
* Removed the corrosponding documentation on versioning and backward
compatibility from 'papr_pdsm.h'
* Reduced the size of reserved fields to 4-bytes making 'struct
nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg' 64 + 8 bytes long.
* Updated is_cmd_valid() to enforce validation checks on pdsm
commands. [ Dan Williams ]
* Added check for reserved fields being set to '0' in is_cmd_valid()
[ Ira ]
* Moved changes for checking cmd_rc == NULL and logging improvements
to a separate prelim patch [ Ira ].
* Moved pdsm package validation checks from papr_scm_service_pdsm()
to is_cmd_valid().
* Marked papr_scm_service_pdsm() return type as 'void' since errors
are reported in nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg.cmd_status field.

Resend:
* Added ack from Aneesh.

v8..v9:
* Reduced the usage of term SCM replacing it with appropriate
replacement [ Dan Williams, Aneesh ]
* Renamed 'papr_scm_pdsm.h' to 'papr_pdsm.h'
* s/PAPR_SCM_PDSM_*/PAPR_PDSM_*/g
* s/NVDIMM_FAMILY_PAPR_SCM/NVDIMM_FAMILY_PAPR/g
* Minor updates to 'papr_psdm.h' to replace usage of term 'SCM'.
* Minor update to patch description.

v7..v8:
* Removed the 'payload_offset' field from 'struct
nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg'. Instead command payload is always assumed to start
at 'nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg.payload'. [ Aneesh ]
* To enable introducing new fields to 'struct nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg',
'reserved' field of 10-bytes is introduced. [ Aneesh ]
* Fixed a typo in "Backward Compatibility" section of papr_scm_pdsm.h
[ Ira ]

Resend:
* None

v6..v7 :
* Removed the re-definitions of __packed macro from papr_scm_pdsm.h
[Mpe].
* Removed the usage of __KERNEL__ macros in papr_scm_pdsm.h [Mpe].
* Removed macros that were unused in papr_scm.c from papr_scm_pdsm.h
[Mpe].
* Made functions defined in papr_scm_pdsm.h as static inline. [Mpe]

v5..v6 :
* Changed the usage of the term DSM to PDSM to distinguish it from the
ACPI term [ Dan Williams ]
* Renamed papr_scm_dsm.h to papr_scm_pdsm.h and updated various struct
to reflect the new terminology.
* Updated the patch description and title to reflect the new terminology.
* Squashed patch to introduce new command family in 'ndctl.h' with
this patch [ Dan Williams ]
* Updated the papr_scm_pdsm method starting index from 0x10000 to 0x0
[ Dan Williams ]
* Removed redundant license text from the papr_scm_psdm.h file.
[ Dan Williams ]
* s/envelop/envelope/ at various places [ Dan Williams ]
* Added '__packed' attribute to command package header to gaurd
against different compiler adding paddings between the fields.
[ Dan Williams]
* Converted various pr_debug to dev_debug [ Dan Williams ]

v4..v5 :
* None

v3..v4 :
* None

v2..v3 :
* Updated the patch prefix to 'ndctl/uapi' [Aneesh]

v1..v2 :
* None

+ * PDSM Envelope:
+ *
+ * The ioctl ND_CMD_CALL transfers data between user-space and kernel via

+ * The header is described by 'struct nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg' which expects a
+ * payload following it and accessible via 'nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg.payload' field.
+ * There is reserved field that can used to introduce new fields to the
+ * structure in future. It also tries to ensure that 'nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg.payload'
+ * lies at a 8-byte boundary.

+ * The header is defined as 'struct nd_pdsm_cmd_pkg' which embeds a

+ * members:
+ *
+ * 'cmd_status' : (Out) Errors if any encountered while servicing PDSM.
+ * 'reserved' : Not used, reserved for future and should be set to 0.
+ *
+ * PDSM Payload:
+ *
+ * The layout of the PDSM Payload is defined by various structs shared between
+ * papr_scm and libndctl so that contents of payload can be interpreted. During
+ * servicing of a PDSM the papr_scm module will read input args from the payload
+ * field by casting its contents to an appropriate struct pointer based on the
+ * PDSM command. Similarly the output of servicing the PDSM command will be
+ * copied to the payload field using the same struct.
+ *
+ * 'libnvdimm' enforces a hard limit of 256 bytes on the envelope size, which
+ * leaves exactly 184 bytes for the envelope payload.
