<content type='text'>
In case a platform doesn't provide explicit flush-hints but provides an
explicit flush callback via ND_REGION_ASYNC region flag, then
nvdimm_has_flush() still returns '0' indicating that writes do not
require flushing. This happens on PPC64 with patch at [1] applied, where
'deep_flush' of a region was denied even though an explicit flush
function was provided.

Fix this by adding a condition to nvdimm_has_flush() to test for the
ND_REGION_ASYNC flag on the region and see if a 'region-&gt;flush' callback
is assigned.

<title>libnvdimm: Notify disk drivers to revalidate region read-only</title>

<id>2361db89aaadfb671db6911b0063e01ec8922c28</id>
<content type='text'>
Previous kernels allowed the BLKROSET to override the disk's read-only
status. With that situation fixed the pmem driver needs to rely on
notification events to reevaluate the disk read-only status after the
host region has been marked read-write.

Recall that when libnvdimm determines that the persistent memory has
lost persistence (for example lack of energy to flush from DRAM to FLASH
on an NVDIMM-N device) it marks the region read-only, but that state can
be overridden by the user via:

   echo 0 &gt; /sys/bus/nd/devices/regionX/read_only

...to date there is no notification that the region has restored
persistence, so the user override is the only recovery.

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.

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.

The root cause is that available_slots_show() consults driver-data, but
fails to synchronize against device-unbind setting up a TOCTOU race to
access uninitialized memory.

Validate driver-data under the device-lock.

Legacy pmem namespaces lost support for the "resource" attribute when
the code was cleaned up to put the permission visibility in the
declaration. Restore this by listing 'resource' in the default
attributes.

A new ndctl regression test for pfn_to_online_page() corner cases builds
on this fix.

Legacy pmem namespaces lost support for the "resource" attribute when
the code was cleaned up to put the permission visibility in the
declaration. Restore this by listing 'resource' in the default
attributes.

A new ndctl regression test for pfn_to_online_page() corner cases builds
on this fix.

Replace the gendisk pointer in struct bio with a pointer to the newly
improved struct block device.  From that the gendisk can be trivially
accessed with an extra indirection, but it also allows to directly
look up all information related to partition remapping.
