libnvdimm/labels: Introduce CXL labels

2021-09-21T20:44:56+00:00

Now that all of use sites of label data have been converted to nsl_* helpers, introduce the CXL label format. The ->cxl flag in nvdimm_drvdata indicates the label format the device expects. A follow-on patch allows a bus provider to select the label style. Note that the EFI definition of the labels represents the Linux "claim class" with a GUID. The CXL definition of the labels stores the same identifier in UUID byte order.

libnvdimm/labels: Add claim class helpers

2021-08-24T19:08:28+00:00

In preparation for LIBNVDIMM to manage labels on CXL devices deploy helpers that abstract the label type from the implementation. The CXL label format is mostly similar to the EFI label format with concepts / fields added, like dynamic region creation and label type guids, and other concepts removed like BLK-mode and interleave-set-cookie ids. CXL labels do have the concept of a claim class represented by an "abstraction" identifier. It turns out both label implementations use the same ids, but EFI encodes them as GUIDs and CXL labels encode them as UUIDs. For now abstract out the claim class such that the UUID vs GUID distinction can later be hidden in the helper.

libnvdimm/label: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member

2020-03-30T19:37:09+00:00

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

nvdimm: Use namespace index data to reduce number of label reads needed

2018-10-12T15:39:31+00:00

This patch adds logic that is meant to make use of the namespace index data to reduce the number of reads that are needed to initialize a given namespace. The general idea is that once we have enough data to validate the namespace index we do so and then proceed to fetch only those labels that are not listed as being "free". By doing this I am seeing a total time reduction from about 4-5 seconds to 2-3 seconds for 24 NVDIMM modules each with 128K of label config area.
