Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This adds a user for the new 'bytes-remaining' updates to
memcpy_mcsafe() that you already received through Ingo via the
x86-dax- for-linus pull.

Not included here, but still targeting this cycle, is support for
handling memory media errors (poison) consumed via userspace dax
mappings.

Summary:

- DAX broke a fundamental assumption of truncate of file mapped
pages. The truncate path assumed that it is safe to disconnect a
pinned page from a file and let the filesystem reclaim the physical
block. With DAX the page is equivalent to the filesystem block.
Introduce dax_layout_busy_page() to enable filesystems to wait for
pinned DAX pages to be released. Without this wait a filesystem
could allocate blocks under active device-DMA to a new file.

- DAX arranges for the block layer to be bypassed and uses
dax_direct_access() + copy_to_iter() to satisfy read(2) calls.
However, the memcpy_mcsafe() facility is available through the pmem
block driver. In order to safely handle media errors, via the DAX
block-layer bypass, introduce copy_to_iter_mcsafe().

- Fix cache management policy relative to the ACPI NFIT Platform
Capabilities Structure to properly elide cache flushes when they
are not necessary. The table indicates whether CPU caches are
power-fail protected. Clarify that a deep flush is always performed
on REQ_{FUA,PREFLUSH} requests"

dax: Introduce a ->copy_to_iter dax operation

Similar to the ->copy_from_iter() operation, a platform may want to
deploy an architecture or device specific routine for handling reads
from a dax_device like /dev/pmemX. On x86 this routine will point to a
machine check safe version of copy_to_iter(). For now, add the plumbing
to device-mapper and the dax core.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This cycle was was not something I ever want to repeat as there were
several late changes that have only now just settled.

Half of the branch up to commit d2c997c0f145 ("fs, dax: use
page->mapping to warn...") have been in -next for several releases.
The of_pmem driver and the address range scrub rework were late
arrivals, and the dax work was scaled back at the last moment.

The of_pmem driver missed a previous merge window due to an oversight.
A sense of obligation to rectify that miss is why it is included for
4.17. It has acks from PowerPC folks. Stephen reported a build failure
that only occurs when merging it with your latest tree, for now I have
fixed that up by disabling modular builds of of_pmem. A test merge
with your tree has received a build success report from the 0day robot
over 156 configs.

An initial version of the ARS rework was submitted before the merge
window. It is self contained to libnvdimm, a net code reduction, and
passing all unit tests.

The filesystem-dax changes are based on the wait_var_event()
functionality from tip/sched/core. However, late review feedback
showed that those changes regressed truncate performance to a large
degree. The branch was rewound to drop the truncate behavior change
and now only includes preparation patches and cleanups (with full acks
and reviews). The finalization of this dax-dma-vs-trnucate work will
need to wait for 4.18.

Summary:

- A rework of the filesytem-dax implementation provides for detection
of unmap operations (truncate / hole punch) colliding with
in-progress device-DMA. A fix for these collisions remains a
work-in-progress pending resolution of truncate latency and
starvation regressions.

- The of_pmem driver expands the users of libnvdimm outside of x86
and ACPI to describe an implementation of persistent memory on
PowerPC with Open Firmware / Device tree.

- Address Range Scrub (ARS) handling is completely rewritten to
account for the fact that ARS may run for 100s of seconds and there
is no platform defined way to cancel it. ARS will now no longer
block namespace initialization.

- The NVDIMM Namespace Label implementation is updated to handle
label areas as small as 1K, down from 128K.

- Miscellaneous cleanups and updates to unit test infrastructure"

Merge tag 'for-4.17/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

- DM core passthrough ioctl fix to retain reference to DM table, and
that table's block devices, while issuing the ioctl to one of those
block devices.

- DM core passthrough ioctl fix to _not_ override the fmode_t used to
issue the ioctl. Overriding by using the fmode_t that the block
device was originally open with during DM table load is a liability.

- Add DM core support for secure erase forwarding and update the DM
linear and DM striped targets to support them.

- A DM core 4.16 stable fix to allow abnormal IO (e.g. discard, write
same, write zeroes) for targets that make use of the non-splitting IO
variant (as is done for multipath or thinp when layered directly on
NVMe).

- Allow DM targets to return a payload in response to a DM message that
they are sent. This is useful for DM targets that would like to
provide statistics data in response to DM messages.

- Update DM bufio to support non-power-of-2 block sizes. Numerous other
related changes prepare the DM bufio code for this support.

- Fix DM crypt to use a bounded amount of memory across the entire
system. This is to avoid OOM that can otherwise occur in response to
certain pathological IO workloads (e.g. discarding a large DM crypt
device).

- Add a 'check_at_most_once' feature to the DM verity target to allow
verity to be used on mobile devices that have very limited resources.

- Fix the DM integrity target to fail early if a keyed algorithm (e.g.
HMAC) is to be used but the key isn't set.

- Add non-power-of-2 support to the DM unstripe target.

- Eliminate the use of a Variable Length Array in the DM stripe target.

- Update the DM log-writes target to record metadata (REQ_META flag).

- DM raid fixes for its nosync status and some variable range issues.
