[PATCH v4] memregion: Add cpu_cache_invalidate_memregion() interface
From: Dan Williams
Date: Tue Oct 25 2022 - 16:05:52 EST
From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
With CXL security features, global CPU cache flushing nvdimm requirements
are no longer specific to that subsystem, even beyond the scope of
security_ops. CXL will need such semantics for features not necessarily
limited to persistent memory.
The functionality this is enabling is to be able to instantaneously
secure erase potentially terabytes of memory at once and the kernel
needs to be sure that none of the data from before the erase is still
present in the cache. It is also used when unlocking a memory device
where speculative reads and firmware accesses could have cached poison
from before the device was unlocked. Lastly this facility is used when
mapping new devices, or new capacity into an established physical
address range. I.e. when the driver switches DeviceA mapping AddressX to
DeviceB mapping AddressX then any cached data from DeviceA:AddressX
needs to be invalidated.
This capability is typically only used once per-boot (for unlock), or
once per bare metal provisioning event (secure erase), like when handing
off the system to another tenant or decommissioning a device. It may
also be used for dynamic CXL region provisioning.
Users must first call cpu_cache_has_invalidate_memregion() to know whether
this functionality is available on the architecture. Only enable it on
x86-64 via the wbinvd() hammer. Hypervisors are not supported as TDX
guests may trigger a virtualization exception and may need proper handling
to recover. See:
e2efb6359e62 ("ACPICA: Avoid cache flush inside virtual machines")
This global cache invalidation facility,
cpu_cache_invalidate_memregion(), is exported to modules since NVDIMM
and CXL support can be built as a module. However, the intent is that
this facility is not available outside of specific "device-memory" use
cases. To that end the API is scoped to a new "DEVMEM" module namespace
that only applies to the NVDIMM and CXL subsystems.

Changes since v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220919110605.3696-1-dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx
- Add more details about the use of this facility in the memory
provisioning flow in the changelog
- Introduce the DEVMEM symbol namespace to indicate that this facility is not
for general consumption (Dave H)
- Update the kernel-doc for cpu_cache_invalidate_memregion() to clarify
that it is not to be used outside of the CXL and NVDIMM subsystems (Dave H)
