H A Dcacheflush.h61031952f4c89dba1065f7a5b9419badb112554c Thu Jun 25 02:08:39 CDT 2015 Ross Zwisler <ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> arch, x86: pmem api for ensuring durability of persistent memory updates

Based on an original patch by Ross Zwisler [1].

Writes to persistent memory have the potential to be posted to cpu
cache, cpu write buffers, and platform write buffers (memory controller)
before being committed to persistent media. Provide apis,
memcpy_to_pmem(), wmb_pmem(), and memremap_pmem(), to write data to
pmem and assert that it is durable in PMEM (a persistent linear address
range). A '__pmem' attribute is added so sparse can track proper usage
of pointers to pmem.

This continues the status quo of pmem being x86 only for 4.2, but
reworks to ioremap, and wider implementation of memremap() will enable
other archs in 4.3.

pmem_rw_page() needs to call wmb_pmem() on writes to make sure that the
newly written data is durable. This flow was added to pmem_rw_bytes()
and pmem_make_request() with this commit:

commit 61031952f4c8 ("arch, x86: pmem api for ensuring durability of
persistent memory updates")

...the pmem_rw_page() path was missed.

commit 61031952f4c8 ("arch, x86: pmem api for ensuring durability of
persistent memory updates") added a new __pmem annotation for sparse
verification. Add __pmem to the $Sparse variable so checkpatch can
appropriately ignore uses of this attribute too.
