libnvdimm: Make remove callback return void

All drivers return 0 in their remove callback and the driver core ignores
the return value of nvdimm_bus_remove() anyhow. So simplify by changing
the driver remove callback to return void and return 0 unconditionally
to the upper layer.

libnvdimm/dimm: Simplify nvdimm_remove()

nvdimm_remove is only ever called after nvdimm_probe() returned
successfully. In this case driver data is always set to a non-NULL value
so the check for driver data being NULL can go away as it's always false.

libnvdimm/region: Introduce NDD_LABELING

The NDD_ALIASING flag is used to indicate where pmem capacity might
alias with blk capacity and require labeling. It is also used to
indicate whether the DIMM supports labeling. Separate this latter
capability into its own flag so that the NDD_ALIASING flag is scoped to
true aliased configurations.

To my knowledge aliased configurations only exist in the ACPI spec,
there are no known platforms that ship this support in production.

This clarity allows namespace-capacity alignment constraints around
interleave-ways to be relaxed.

libnvdimm/security: Require nvdimm_security_setup_events() to succeed

The following warning:

ACPI0012:00: security event setup failed: -19

...is meant to capture exceptional failures of sysfs_get_dirent(),
however it will also fail in the common case when security support is
disabled. A few issues:

1/ A dev_warn() report for a common case is too chatty
2/ The setup of this notifier is generic, no need for it to be driven
from the nfit driver, it can exist completely in the core.
3/ If it fails for any reason besides security support being disabled,
that's fatal and should abort DIMM activation. Userspace may hang if
it never gets overwrite notifications.
4/ The dirent needs to be released.

Move the call to the core 'dimm' driver, make it conditional on security
support being active, make it fatal for the exceptional case, add the
missing sysfs_put() at device disable time.

acpi/nfit, libnvdimm: Add unlock of nvdimm support for Intel DIMMs

Add support to unlock the dimm via the kernel key management APIs. The
passphrase is expected to be pulled from userspace through keyutils.
The key management and sysfs attributes are libnvdimm generic.

Encrypted keys are used to protect the nvdimm passphrase at rest. The
master key can be a trusted-key sealed in a TPM, preferred, or an
encrypted-key, more flexible, but more exposure to a potential attacker.

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

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.

nvdimm: Split label init out from the logic for getting config data

This patch splits the initialization of the label data into two functions.
One for doing the init, and another for reading the actual configuration
data. The idea behind this is that by doing this we create a symmetry
between the getting and setting of config data in that we have a function
for both. In addition it will make it easier for us to identify the bits
that are related to init versus the pieces that are a wrapper for reading
data from the ACPI interface.

So for example by splitting things out like this it becomes much more
obvious that we were performing checks that weren't necessarily related to
the set/get operations such as relying on ndd->data being present when the
set and get ops should not care about a locally cached copy of the label
area.

libnvdimm, dimm: fix dpa reservation vs uninitialized label area

At initialization time the 'dimm' driver caches a copy of the memory
device's label area and reserves address space for each of the
namespaces defined.

However, as can be seen below, the reservation occurs even when the
index blocks are invalid:

nvdimm nmem0: nvdimm_init_config_data: len: 131072 rc: 0
nvdimm nmem0: config data size: 131072
nvdimm nmem0: __nd_label_validate: nsindex0 labelsize 1 invalid
nvdimm nmem0: __nd_label_validate: nsindex1 labelsize 1 invalid
nvdimm nmem0: : pmem-6025e505: 0x1000000000 @ 0xf50000000 reserve <-- bad

Gate dpa reservation on the presence of valid index blocks.

acpi, nfit: add support for the _LSI, _LSR, and _LSW label methods

ACPI 6.2 adds support for named methods to access the label storage area
of an NVDIMM. We prefer these new methods if available and otherwise
fallback to the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL _DSMs. The kernel ioctls,
ND_IOCTL_{GET,SET}_CONFIG_{SIZE,DATA}, remain generic and the driver
translates the 'package' payloads into the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL 'buffer'
format to maintain compatibility with existing userspace and keep the
output buffer parsing code in the driver common.

The output payloads are mostly compatible save for the 'label area
locked' status that moves from the 'config_size' (_LSI) command to the
'config_read' (_LSR) command status.

libnvdimm, dimm: clear 'locked' status on successful DIMM enable

If we successfully enable a DIMM then it must not be locked and we can
clear the label-read failure condition. Otherwise, we need to reload the
entire bus provider driver to achieve the same effect, and that can
disrupt unrelated DIMMs and namespaces.

libnvdimm: allow a platform to force enable label support

Platforms like QEMU-KVM implement an NFIT table and label DSMs.
However, since that environment does not define an aliased
configuration, the labels are currently ignored and the kernel registers
a single full-sized pmem-namespace per region. Now that the kernel
supports sub-divisions of pmem regions the labels have a purpose.
Arrange for the labels to be honored when we find an existing / valid
namespace index block.

libnvdimm: Fix nvdimm_probe error on NVDIMM-N

'ndctl list --buses --dimms' does not list any NVDIMM-Ns since
they are considered as idle. ndctl checks if any driver is
attached to nmem device. nvdimm_probe() always fails in
nvdimm_init_nsarea() since NVDIMM-Ns do not implement optinal
ND_CMD_GET_CONFIG_DATA command.

Change nvdimm_probe() to accept the case that the CONFIG_DATA
command is not implemented for NVDIMM-Ns. The driver attaches
without ndd, which keeps it no-op to the device.

libnvdimm: pmem label sets and namespace instantiation.

A complete label set is a PMEM-label per-dimm per-interleave-set where
all the UUIDs match and the interleave set cookie matches the hosting
interleave set.

Present sysfs attributes for manipulation of a PMEM-namespace's
'alt_name', 'uuid', and 'size' attributes. A later patch will make
these settings persistent by writing back the label.

Note that PMEM allocations grow forwards from the start of an interleave
set (lowest dimm-physical-address (DPA)). BLK-namespaces that alias
with a PMEM interleave set will grow allocations backward from the
highest DPA.

libnvdimm: support for legacy (non-aliasing) nvdimms

The libnvdimm region driver is an intermediary driver that translates
non-volatile "region"s into "namespace" sub-devices that are surfaced by
persistent memory block-device drivers (PMEM and BLK).

ACPI 6 introduces the concept that a given nvdimm may simultaneously
offer multiple access modes to its media through direct PMEM load/store
access, or windowed BLK mode. Existing nvdimms mostly implement a PMEM
interface, some offer a BLK-like mode, but never both as ACPI 6 defines.
If an nvdimm is single interfaced, then there is no need for dimm
metadata labels. For these devices we can take the region boundaries
directly to create a child namespace device (nd_namespace_io).

libnvdimm, nvdimm: dimm driver and base libnvdimm device-driver infrastructure

* Implement the device-model infrastructure for loading modules and
attaching drivers to nvdimm devices. This is a simple association of a
nd-device-type number with a driver that has a bitmask of supported
device types. To facilitate userspace bind/unbind operations 'modalias'
and 'devtype', that also appear in the uevent, are added as generic
sysfs attributes for all nvdimm devices. The reason for the device-type
number is to support sub-types within a given parent devtype, be it a
vendor-specific sub-type or otherwise.

* The first consumer of this infrastructure is the driver
for dimm devices. It simply uses control messages to retrieve and
store the configuration-data image (label set) from each dimm.

Note: nd_device_register() arranges for asynchronous registration of
nvdimm bus devices by default.
