I don't think the small matter that this device does not support MAP_SYNC warrants a separate naming scheme. That said I do think we need to export this attribute in sysfs, likely at the region level, and then display that information in ndctl. This is distinct from the btt case where it is operating a different data consistency contract than baseline pmem. > > Signed-off-by: Pankaj Gupta <[email protected]> > --- > drivers/nvdimm/namespace_devs.c | 6 +++++- > 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/nvdimm/namespace_devs.c b/drivers/nvdimm/namespace_devs.c > index a16e52251a30..8e5d29266fb0 100644 > --- a/drivers/nvdimm/namespace_devs.c > +++ b/drivers/nvdimm/namespace_devs.c > @@ -182,8 +182,12 @@ const char *nvdimm_namespace_disk_name(struct > nd_namespace_common *ndns, > char *name) > { > struct nd_region *nd_region = to_nd_region(ndns->dev.parent); > + const char *prefix = ""; > const char *suffix = NULL; > > + if (!is_nvdimm_sync(nd_region)) > + prefix = "v"; > + > if (ndns->claim && is_nd_btt(ndns->claim)) > suffix = "s"; > > @@ -201,7 +205,7 @@ const char *nvdimm_namespace_disk_name(struct > nd_namespace_common *ndns, > sprintf(name, "pmem%d.%d%s", nd_region->id, nsidx, > suffix ? suffix : ""); > else > - sprintf(name, "pmem%d%s", nd_region->id, > + sprintf(name, "%spmem%d%s", prefix, nd_region->id, > suffix ? suffix : ""); > } else if (is_namespace_blk(&ndns->dev)) { > struct nd_namespace_blk *nsblk; > -- > 2.20.1 >
