This patch implements support for PDSM request 'PAPR_PDSM_HEALTH'
that returns a newly introduced 'struct nd_papr_pdsm_health' instance
containing dimm health information back to user space in response to
ND_CMD_CALL. This functionality is implemented in newly introduced
papr_pdsm_health() that queries the nvdimm health information and
then copies this information to the package payload whose layout is
defined by 'struct nd_papr_pdsm_health'.

<title>ndctl/papr_scm,uapi: Add support for PAPR nvdimm specific methods</title>
<updated>2020-06-16T01:22:44+00:00</updated>

<id>f517f7925b7b453cb83be06c268ba057b78e4792</id>
<content type='text'>
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 'struct nd_pkg_pdsm' and a maximal union named
'nd_pdsm_payload'. These new structs together with 'struct nd_cmd_pkg'
for a pdsm envelop thats sent by libndctl to libnvdimm and serviced by
papr_scm in 'papr_scm_service_pdsm()'. The PDSM request is
communicated by member 'struct nd_cmd_pkg.nd_command' together with
other information on the pdsm payload (size-in, size-out).

The patch also introduces 'struct pdsm_cmd_desc' instances of which
are stored in an array __pdsm_cmd_descriptors[] indexed with PDSM cmd
and corresponding access function pdsm_cmd_desc() is
introduced. 'struct pdsm_cdm_desc' holds the service function for a
given PDSM and corresponding payload in/out sizes.

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. The function performs validation on the PDSM
payload based on info present in corresponding PDSM descriptor and if
valid calls the 'struct pdcm_cmd_desc.service' function to service the
PDSM.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Support for userspace to send requests directly to the on-chip GZIP
   accelerator on Power9.

 - Rework of our lockless page table walking (__find_linux_pte()) to
   make it safe against parallel page table manipulations without
   relying on an IPI for serialisation.

 - A series of fixes &amp; enhancements to make our machine check handling
   more robust.

 - Lots of plumbing to add support for "prefixed" (64-bit) instructions
   on Power10.

 - Support for using huge pages for the linear mapping on 8xx (32-bit).

 - Remove obsolete Xilinx PPC405/PPC440 support, and an associated sound
   driver.

 - Removal of some obsolete 40x platforms and associated cruft.

 - Initial support for booting on Power10.

 - Lots of other small features, cleanups &amp; fixes.

POWER10 introduces two new architectural features - ISAv3.1 and matrix
multiply assist (MMA) instructions. Userspace detects the presence
of these features via two HWCAP bits introduced in this patch. These
bits have been agreed to by the compiler and binutils team.

According to ISAv3.1 MMA is an optional feature and software that makes
use of it should first check for availability via this HWCAP bit and use
alternate code paths if unavailable.

Define the VAS_TX_WIN_OPEN ioctl interface for NX GZIP access
from user space. This interface is used to open GZIP send window and
mmap region which can be used by userspace to send requests to NX
directly with copy/paste instructions.

Userspace cannot compile &lt;asm/sembuf.h&gt; due to some missing type
definitions.  For example, building it for x86 fails as follows:

    CC      usr/include/asm/sembuf.h.s
  In file included from &lt;command-line&gt;:32:0:
  usr/include/asm/sembuf.h:17:20: error: field `sem_perm' has incomplete type
    struct ipc64_perm sem_perm; /* permissions .. see ipc.h */
                      ^~~~~~~~

It is just a matter of missing include directive.

Include &lt;asm/ipcbuf.h&gt; to make it self-contained, and add it to
the compile-test coverage.

Pull y2038 cleanups from Arnd Bergmann:
 "y2038 syscall implementation cleanups

  This is a series of cleanups for the y2038 work, mostly intended for
  namespace cleaning: the kernel defines the traditional time_t, timeval
  and timespec types that often lead to y2038-unsafe code. Even though
  the unsafe usage is mostly gone from the kernel, having the types and
  associated functions around means that we can still grow new users,
  and that we may be missing conversions to safe types that actually
  matter.

  There are still a number of driver specific patches needed to get the
  last users of these types removed, those have been submitted to the
  respective maintainers"
