Subject: [PATCH v2 00/17] libnvdimm: ->rw_bytes(), BLK, BTT, PMEM api,
and unit tests
->rw_bytes() is a byte-aligned interface for accessing persistent memory
namespaces. The primary consumer of the ->rw_bytes() interface is the
BTT library.
BTT is a library that converts a byte-accessible namespace into a disk
with atomic sector update semantics (prevents sector tearing on crash or
power loss). The sinister aspect of sector tearing is that most
applications do not know they have a atomic sector dependency. At least
today's disk's rarely ever tear sectors and if they do you almost
certainly get a CRC error on access. NVDIMMs will always tear and
always silently.
BLK is a driver for NVDIMMs that provide sliding mmio windows to access
persistent memory.
The PMEM api defines ensures writes have hit persistent media relative
to the completion of an i/o.
Changes since v1 [1]:
1/ The ->rw_bytes() interface has been removed from struct
block_device_operations and is now a common operation of NVDIMM
namespace devices. Accordingly a BTT instance is now a libnvdimm
device-model peer of a namespace rather than a stacked block device
driver. The BTT is no longer a driver in its own right, instead it is a
extension library used by a BLK or PMEM namespace. This clarifies the
device model and reduced the core implementation by a couple hundred
lines of code. (Christoph)
2/ Kill ND_MAX_REGIONS and ND_IOSTAT Kconfig options. (Christoph)
3/ Killed the access out of range check separately in PMEM, BLK, and BTT
(Christoph)
4/ Kill the central helper for blk queue properties (Christoph)
5/ Added Toshi's numa patches with a change to set the numa info at
device create time rather than driver probe time.
6/ Cherry picked the PMEM api. The wider arch cleanups in the full
pmem-api series are too large / invasive to pick up at this late date.
The keeps the pmem.c driver x86-only for one more cycle.
