Hi, I wrote v3 patch set to show broken NVDIMM for ndctl list command. Please check it.
--- Change log since v2 [1]: - Make libndctl-nfit.h and libndctl-nfit.c and define new interfaces which use translate spa on them. - Add sanity checks for new interfaces. - Fix some names o trans_spa -> translate_spa o sub_cmd -> passthru_cmd Change log since v1 [2]: - Use ND_CMD_CALL to call translate SPA feature. - Separate patch set of ndctl from kernel patch set. - Add a interface to check what feature can call via ND_CMD_CALL by reading /device/nfit/dsm_mask - Get only one nvdimm handle and DPA via ioctl() for the time being. - Bug fix which i found fix calculation of SPA from bad block at dev_badblocks_to_json().

When a region has a broken block, user needs to replace the NVDIMM which includes the block. However there is no information to find which DIMM module have the block. Not only ndctl does not have such information, nvdimm driver can not find it. Fortunately, ACPI 6.2 has new specification of _DSM. It is "translate spa" which can get NVDIMM handle and DPA(Dimm Physical Address) from SPA(system Physical Addreess). It helps for ndctl command to find broken NVDIMM. This patch set includes followings. - some preparations to call Translate SPA via ND_CMD_CALL. - libndctl-nfit supports Translate SPA interface, - ndctl list command show bad DIMM with Translate SPA.
