This series is seeking comments on the implementation. It has not been fully
tested yet.
This series adds the support for "Persistent Memory Data-at-rest Security"
block of command set for the CXL Memory Devices. The enabling is done through
the nvdimm_security_ops as the operations are very similar to the same
operations that the persistent memory devices through NFIT provider support.
This enabling does not include the security pass-through commands nor the
Santize commands.
Under the nvdimm_security_ops, this patch series will enable get_flags(),
freeze(), change_key(), unlock(), disable(), and erase(). The disable() API
does not support disabling of the master passphrase. To maintain established
user ABI through the sysfs attribute "security", the "disable" command is
left untouched and a new "disable_master" command is introduced with a new
disable_master() API call for the nvdimm_security_ops().
This series does not include plumbing to directly handle the security commands
through cxl control util. The enabled security commands will still go through
ndctl tool with this enabling.
For calls such as unlock() and erase(), the CPU caches must be invalidated
post operation. Currently, the implementation resides in
drivers/acpi/nfit/intel.c with a comment that it should be implemented
cross arch when more than just NFIT based device needs this operation.
With the coming of CXL persistent memory devices this is now needed.
Introduce ARCH_HAS_NVDIMM_INVAL_CACHE and implement similar to
ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API where the arch can opt in with implementation.
Currently only add x86_64 implementation where wbinvd_on_all_cpus()
is called.
