The pmem driver does not honor a forced read-only setting for very long:
$ blockdev --setro /dev/pmem0
$ blockdev --getro /dev/pmem0
1
followed by various commands like these:
$ blockdev --rereadpt /dev/pmem0
or
$ mkfs.ext4 /dev/pmem0
results in this in the kernel serial log:
nd_pmem namespace0.0: region0 read-write, marking pmem0 read-write
with the read-only setting lost:
$ blockdev --getro /dev/pmem0
0
That's from bus.c nvdimm_revalidate_disk(), which always applies the
setting from nd_region (which is initially based on the ACPI NFIT
NVDIMM state flags not_armed bit).
In contrast, commit 20bd1d026a ("scsi: sd: Keep disk read-only when
re-reading partition") fixed this issue for SCSI devices to preserve
the previous setting if it was set to read-only.
This patch modifies bus.c to preserve any previous read-only setting.
It also eliminates the kernel serial log print except for cases where
read-write is changed to read-only, so it doesn't print read-only to
read-only non-changes.

The kernel's ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command is based on a payload
definition that has become broken / out-of-sync with recent versions of
the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL definition. Deprecate the use of the
ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command in favor of the ND_CMD_CALL approach
taken by NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}, where we can manage the per-vendor
variance in userspace.
In a couple years, when the new scheme is widely deployed in userspace
packages, the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD support can be removed. For now
we prevent new binaries from compiling against the kernel header
definitions, but kernel still compatible with old binaries. The
libndctl.h [1] header is now the authoritative interface definition for
NVDIMM SMART.

Delay the check of nd_reserved2 to the actual endpoint (acpi_nfit_ctl)
that uses it, as a prevention of a potential double-fetch bug.
While examining the kernel source code, I found a dangerous operation that
could turn into a double-fetch situation (a race condition bug) where
the same userspace memory region are fetched twice into kernel with sanity
checks after the first fetch while missing checks after the second fetch.
In the case of _IOC_NR(ioctl_cmd) == ND_CMD_CALL:
1. The first fetch happens in line 935 copy_from_user(&pkg, p, sizeof(pkg)
2. subsequently `pkg.nd_reserved2` is asserted to be all zeroes
(line 984 to 986).
3. The second fetch happens in line 1022 copy_from_user(buf, p, buf_len)
4. Given that `p` can be fully controlled in userspace, an attacker can
race condition to override the header part of `p`, say,
`((struct nd_cmd_pkg *)p)->nd_reserved2` to arbitrary value
(say nine 0xFFFFFFFF for `nd_reserved2`) after the first fetch but before the
second fetch. The changed value will be copied to `buf`.
5. There is no checks on the second fetches until the use of it in
line 1034: nd_cmd_clear_to_send(nvdimm_bus, nvdimm, cmd, buf) and
line 1038: nd_desc->ndctl(nd_desc, nvdimm, cmd, buf, buf_len, &cmd_rc)
which means that the assumed relation, `p->nd_reserved2` are all zeroes might
not hold after the second fetch. And once the control goes to these functions
we lose the context to assert the assumed relation.
6. Based on my manual analysis, `p->nd_reserved2` is not used in function
`nd_cmd_clear_to_send` and potential implementations of `nd_desc->ndctl`
so there is no working exploit against it right now. However, this could
easily turns to an exploitable one if careless developers start to use
`p->nd_reserved2` later and assume that they are all zeroes.
Move the validation of the nd_reserved2 field to the ->ndctl()
implementation where it has a stable buffer to evaluate.

Dan reports:
The patch 62232e45f4a2: "libnvdimm: control (ioctl) messages for
nvdimm_bus and nvdimm devices" from Jun 8, 2015, leads to the
following static checker warning:
drivers/nvdimm/bus.c:1018 __nd_ioctl()
warn: integer overflows 'buf_len'
From a casual review, this seems like it might be a real bug. On
the first iteration we load some data into in_env[]. On the second
iteration we read a use controlled "in_size" from nd_cmd_in_size().
It can go up to UINT_MAX - 1. A high number means we will fill the
whole in_env[] buffer. But we potentially keep looping and adding
more to in_len so now it can be any value.
It simple enough to change, but it feels weird that we keep looping
even though in_env is totally full. Shouldn't we just return an
error if we don't have space for desc->in_num.
We keep looping because the size of the total input is allowed to be
bigger than the 'envelope' which is a subset of the payload that tells
us how much data to expect. For safety explicitly check that buf_len
does not overflow which is what the checker flagged.

With the ACPI NFIT 'DSM' methods, acpi can be called from IO paths.
Specifically, the DSM to clear media errors is called during writes, so
that we can provide a writes-fix-errors model.
However it is easy to imagine a scenario like:
-> write through the nvdimm driver
-> acpi allocation
-> writeback, causes more IO through the nvdimm driver
-> deadlock
Fix this by using memalloc_noio_{save,restore}, which sets the GFP_NOIO
flag for the current scope when issuing commands/IOs that are expected
to clear errors.

Toshi noticed that the new support for a region-level badblocks missed
the case where errors are cleared due to BTT I/O.
An initial attempt to fix this ran into a "sleeping while atomic"
warning due to taking the nvdimm_bus_lock() in the BTT I/O path to
satisfy the locking requirements of __nvdimm_bus_badblocks_clear().
However, that lock is not needed since we are not acting on any data that
is subject to change under that lock. The badblocks instance has its own
internal lock to handle mutations of the error list.
So, in order to make it clear that we are just acting on region devices,
rename __nvdimm_bus_badblocks_clear() to nvdimm_clear_badblocks_regions().
Eliminate the lock and consolidate all support routines for the new
nvdimm_account_cleared_poison() in drivers/nvdimm/bus.c. Finally, to the
opportunity to cleanup to some unnecessary casts, make the calling
convention of nvdimm_clear_badblocks_regions() clearer by replacing struct
resource with the minimal struct clear_badblocks_context, and use the
DEVICE_ATTR macro.

Given ambiguities in the ACPI 6.1 definition of the "Output (Size)"
field of the ARS (Address Range Scrub) Status command, a firmware
implementation may in practice return 0, 4, or 8 to indicate that there
is no output payload to process.
The specification states "Size of Output Buffer in bytes, including this
field.". However, 'Output Buffer' is also the name of the entire
payload, and earlier in the specification it states "Max Query ARS
Status Output Buffer Size: Maximum size of buffer (including the Status
and Extended Status fields)".
Without this fix if the BIOS happens to return 0 it causes memory
corruption as evidenced by this result from the acpi_nfit_ctl() unit
test.

A scrub triggered from either sysfs or an MCE was found to be adding
stale entries that had been cleared from gendisk->badblocks, but were
still present in nvdimm_bus->poison_list. Additionally, the stale entries
could be triggered into producing stale disk->badblocks by simply disabling

This adds the missing step of clearing poison_list entries when clearing

A recent effort to add a new nvdimm bus provider attribute highlighted a
race between interrogating nvdimm_bus->nd_desc and nvdimm_bus tear down.
The typical way to handle these races is to take the device_lock() in
the attribute method and validate that the device is still active. In
order for a device to be 'active' it needs to be associated with a
driver. So, we create the small boilerplate for a driver and register
nvdimm_bus devices on the 'nvdimm_bus_type' bus.
A result of this change is that ndbusX devices now appear under
/sys/bus/nd/devices. In fact this makes /sys/class/nd somewhat
redundant, but removing that will need to take a long deprecation period
given its use by ndctl binaries in the field.
This change naturally pulls code from drivers/nvdimm/core.c to
drivers/nvdimm/bus.c, so it is a nice code organization clean-up as
well.

Let the provider module be explicitly passed in rather than implicitly
assumed by the module that calls nvdimm_bus_register(). This is in
preparation for unifying the nfit and nfit_test driver teardown paths.

The dax_pmem driver was implementing an empty ->remove() method to
satisfy the nvdimm bus driver that unconditionally calls ->remove().
Teach the core bus driver to check if ->remove() is NULL to remove that
requirement.

Device DAX is the device-centric analogue of Filesystem DAX
(CONFIG_FS_DAX). It allows persistent memory ranges to be allocated and
mapped without need of an intervening file system. This initial
infrastructure arranges for a libnvdimm pfn-device to be represented as
a different device-type so that it can be attached to a driver other
than the pmem driver.

There are currently 4 known similar but incompatible definitions of the
command sets that can be sent to an NVDIMM through ACPI. It is also
clear that future platform generations (ACPI or not) will continue to
revise and extend the DIMM command set as new devices and use cases
arrive.
It is obviously untenable to continue to proliferate divergence
of these command definitions, and to that end a standardization process
has begun to provide for a unified specification. However, that leaves a
problem about what to do with this first generation where vendors are
already shipping divergence.
The Linux kernel can support these initial diverged platforms without
giving platform-firmware free reign to continue to diverge and compound
kernel maintenance overhead. The kernel implementation can encourage
standardization in two ways:
1/ Require that any function code that userspace wants to send be
explicitly white-listed in the implementation. For ACPI this means
function codes marked as supported by acpi_check_dsm() may
only be invoked if they appear in the white-list. A function must be
publicly documented before it is added to the white-list.
2/ The above restrictions can be trivially bypassed by using the
"vendor-specific" payload command. However, since vendor-specific
commands are by definition not publicly documented and have the
potential to corrupt the kernel's view of the dimm state, we provide a
toggle to disable vendor-specific operations. Enabling undefined
behavior is a policy decision that can be made by the platform owner
and encourages firmware implementations to choose public over
private command implementations.

Clarify the distinction between "commands", the ioctls userspace calls
to request the kernel take some action on a given dimm device, and
"_DSMs", the actual function numbers used in the firmware interface to
the DIMM. _DSMs are ACPI specific whereas commands are Linux kernel
generic.
This is in preparation for breaking the 1:1 implicit relationship
between the kernel ioctl number space and the firmware specific function
numbers.

The original format of these commands from the "NVDIMM DSM Interface
Example" [1] are superseded by the ACPI 6.1 definition of the "NVDIMM Root
Device _DSMs" [2].

[2]: http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6_1.pdf
"9.20.7 NVDIMM Root Device _DSMs"
Changes include:
1/ New 'restart' fields in ars_status, unfortunately these are
implemented in the middle of the existing definition so this change
is not backwards compatible. The expectation is that shipping
platforms will only ever support the ACPI 6.1 definition.
2/ New status values for ars_start ('busy') and ars_status ('overflow').
