Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: - Four fixes for "flush hint" support. Flush hints are addresses advertised by the ACPI 6+ NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table) that when written and fenced guarantee that writes pending in platform write buffers (outside the cpu) have been flushed to media. They might also be used by hypervisors as a trigger condition to flush guest-persistent memory ranges to storage. Fix a potential data corruption issue, a broken definition of the hint array, a wrong allocation size for the unit test implementation of the flush hint table, and missing NULL check in an error path. The unit test, while it did not prevent these bugs from being merged, at least triggered occasional crashes in advance of production usages. - Fix handling of ACPI DSM error status results. The DSM mechanism allows communication with platform and memory device firmware. We correctly parse known errors, but were silently ignoring others. Fix it to consistently fail any command with a non-zero status return that we otherwise do not interpret / handle. * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: libnvdimm, region: fix flush hint table thinko nfit: fail DSMs that return non-zero status by default libnvdimm: fix devm_nvdimm_memremap() error path tools/testing/nvdimm: fix allocation range for mock flush hint tables nvdimm: fix PHYS_PFN/PFN_PHYS mixup

radix tree test suite: Test radix_tree_replace_slot() for multiorder entries

2016-09-25T18:49:16Z

When we replace a multiorder entry, check that all indices reflect the new value. Also, compile the test suite with -O2, which shows other problems with the code due to some dodgy pointer operations in the radix tree code. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

tools/testing/nvdimm: fix allocation range for mock flush hint tables

2016-09-19T20:49:48Z

Commit 480b6837aa57 "nvdimm: fix PHYS_PFN/PFN_PHYS mixup" identified that we were passing an invalid address to devm_nvdimm_ioremap(). With that fixed it exposed a bug in the memory reservation size for flush hint tables. Since we map a full page we need to mock a full page of memory to back the flush hint table entries.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: - Fix for the nd_blk (NVDIMM Block Window Aperture) driver. A spec clarification requires the driver to mask off reserved bits in status register. This is tagged for -stable back to the v4.2 kernel. - Fix for a kernel crash in the nvdimm unit tests when module loading is interrupted with SIGTERM. Tagged for -stable since validation efforts external to Intel use the unit tests for qualifying backports. - Add a new 'size' sysfs attribute for the BTT (NVDIMM Block Translation Table) driver to make it symmetric with the other namespace personality drivers (PFN and DAX) that provide a size attribute for indicating how much namespace capacity is lost to metadata. The BTT change arrived at the start of the merge window and has appeared in a -next release. It can technically wait for 4.9, but it is small, fixes asymmetry in the libnvdimm-sysfs interface, and something I would have squeezed into the v4.8 pull request had it arrived a few days earlier. * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: tools/testing/nvdimm: fix SIGTERM vs hotplug crash nvdimm, btt: add a size attribute for BTTs libnvdimm, nd_blk: mask off reserved status bits

tools/testing/nvdimm: fix SIGTERM vs hotplug crash

2016-08-10T22:59:09Z

The unit tests crash when hotplug races the previous probe. This race requires that the loading of the nfit_test module be terminated with SIGTERM, and the module to be unloaded while the ars scan is still running. In contrast to the normal nfit driver, the unit test calls acpi_nfit_init() twice to simulate hotplug, whereas the nominal case goes through the acpi_nfit_notify() event handler. The acpi_nfit_notify() path is careful to flush the previous region registration before servicing the hotplug event. The unit test was missing this guarantee.

selftests/powerpc: Specify we expect to build with std=gnu99

2016-08-10T13:21:37Z

We have some tests that assume we're using std=gnu99, which is fine on most compilers, but some old compilers use a different default. So make it explicit that we want to use std=gnu99. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

ntb_test: Add a selftest script for the NTB subsystem

2016-08-05T14:21:08Z

This script automates testing doorbells, scratchpads and memory windows for an NTB device. It can be run locally, with the NTB looped back to the same host or use SSH to remotely control the second host. In the single host case, the script just needs to be passed two arguments: a PCI ID for each side of the link. In the two host case the -r option must be used to specify the remote hostname (which must be SSH accessible and should probably have ssh-keys exchanged). A sample run looks like this: $ sudo ./ntb_test.sh 0000:03:00.1 0000:83:00.1 -p 29 Starting ntb_tool tests...
