Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "The bulk of this update was stabilized before the merge window and appeared in -next. The "device dax" implementation was revised this week in response to review feedback, and to address failures detected by the recently expanded ndctl unit test suite.
Not included in this pull request are two dax topic branches (dax error handling, and dax radix-tree locking). These topics were deferred to get a few more days of -next integration testing, and to coordinate a branch baseline with Ted and the ext4 tree. Vishal and Ross will send the error handling and locking topics respectively in the next few days.
This branch has received a positive build result from the kbuild robot across 226 configs.
Summary:
- Device DAX for persistent memory: Device DAX is the device-centric analogue of Filesystem DAX (CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory ranges to be allocated and mapped without need of an intervening file system. Device DAX is strict, precise and predictable. Specifically this interface:
a) Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size (pte, pmd, or pud) set at configuration time.
b) Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what fault scenarios are supported.
Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also targeted for exclusive allocations of performance/feature differentiated memory ranges.
- Support for the HPE DSM (device specific method) command formats. This enables management of these first generation devices until a unified DSM specification materializes.
- Further ACPI 6.1 compliance with support for the common dimm identifier format.
- Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem"

/dev/dax, core: file operations and dax-mmap
The "Device DAX" core enables dax mappings of performance / feature differentiated memory. An open mapping or file handle keeps the backing struct device live, but new mappings are only possible while the device is enabled. Faults are handled under rcu_read_lock to synchronize with the enabled state of the device.
Similar to the filesystem-dax case the backing memory may optionally have struct page entries. However, unlike fs-dax there is no support for private mappings, or mappings that are not backed by media (see use of zero-page in fs-dax).
Mappings are always guaranteed to match the alignment of the dax_region. If the dax_region is configured to have a 2MB alignment, all mappings are guaranteed to be backed by a pmd entry. Contrast this determinism with the fs-dax case where pmd mappings are opportunistic. If userspace attempts to force a misaligned mapping, the driver will fail the mmap attempt. See dax_dev_check_vma() for other scenarios that are rejected, like MAP_PRIVATE mappings.

/dev/dax, pmem: direct access to persistent memory
Device DAX is the device-centric analogue of Filesystem DAX (CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows memory ranges to be allocated and mapped without need of an intervening file system. Device DAX is strict, precise and predictable. Specifically this interface:
1/ Guarantees fault granularity with respect to a given page size (pte, pmd, or pud) set at configuration time.
2/ Enforces deterministic behavior by being strict about what fault scenarios are supported.
For example, by forcing MADV_DONTFORK semantics and omitting MAP_PRIVATE support device-dax guarantees that a mapping always behaves/performs the same once established. It is the "what you see is what you get" access mechanism to differentiated memory vs filesystem DAX which has filesystem specific implementation semantics.
Persistent memory is the first target, but the mechanism is also targeted for exclusive allocations of performance differentiated memory ranges.
This commit is limited to the base device driver infrastructure to associate a dax device with pmem range.
