X-Git-Tag: v4.16-rc4~7 X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=20f14172cbb8d711a47d336355fa947631444f60;p=linux-platform-drivers-x86.git Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: "A 4.16 regression fix, three fixes for -stable, and a cleanup fix: - During the merge window support for the new ACPI NVDIMM Platform Capabilities structure disabled support for "deep flush", a force-unit- access like mechanism for persistent memory. Restore that mechanism. - VFIO like RDMA is yet one more memory registration / pinning interface that is incompatible with Filesystem-DAX. Disable long term pins of Filesystem-DAX mappings via VFIO. - The Filesystem-DAX detection to prevent long terms pins mistakenly also disabled Device-DAX pins which are not subject to the same block- map collision concerns. - Similar to the setup path, softlockup warnings can trigger in the shutdown path for large persistent memory namespaces. Teach for_each_device_pfn() to perform cond_resched() in all cases. - Boaz noticed that the might_sleep() in dax_direct_access() is stale as of the v4.15 kernel. These have received a build success notification from the 0day robot, and the longterm pin fixes have appeared in -next. However, I recently rebased the tree to remove some other fixes that need to be reworked after review feedback. * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: memremap: fix softlockup reports at teardown libnvdimm: re-enable deep flush for pmem devices via fsync() vfio: disable filesystem-dax page pinning dax: fix vma_is_fsdax() helper dax: ->direct_access does not sleep anymore --- 20f14172cbb8d711a47d336355fa947631444f60
