When the ACPI UC error notifier gets called and ARS_REQ bit is set
with the passed in flag, we can receive -EBUSY if ARS_REQ bit is already
set for the nfit_spa->ars_state. When that happens, the ARS request is
dropped. That can potentially cause us to miss the unreported errors that

The inject-smart and monitor man pages refrained from displaying short
options for various arguments (alarms, daemon) due to a lack of a coherent
letter that could be made to relate to the event name. It was expected
that the user will always use the long option for these. Since the

The inject-smart man page had a -H option for health status, which was
from a previous development iteration, and not how it actually works.
Fix it to advertise a -f flag for setting fatal status, and remove an

This adds a regression test for the following series:
https://lists.01.org/pipermail/linux-nvdimm/2018-July/016842.html
which adds synchronization between DAX DMA in ext4 and truncate/hole-punch.
The intention of the test is to test those specific changes, but it runs

Commit 05ea88608d4e13 (mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->pagesize() to
vm_operations_struct) adds a new ->pagesize() function to
hugetlb_vm_ops, intended to cover all hugetlbfs backed files.
With System V shared memory model, if "huge page" is specified,
the "shared memory" is backed by hugetlbfs files,
ndctl create-namespace doesn't walk through the regions
from lowest to highest; in this example it's going
1,3,5,0,2,4,6:
$ sudo ndctl create-namespace --verbose
ROB: parsing bus id=0 path=ndbus0
ROB: parsing region id=1 path=region1

The smart injection command in ndctl was missing an option to uninject
the different inject-able fields. The APIs in libndctl already allow for
this by setting the 'enable' flag to false. Add a *-uninject argument
for each of the injectable fields that sets this flag and disables
injected values. A

That was merged three months ago. Can you suggest why
Add support for freeze security to libndctl and also command line option
of "freeze-security" for ndctl. This will lock the ability to make changes
to the NVDIMM security.

The following series implements mechanisms that utilize the sysfs knobs
provided by the kernel in order to support the Intel DSM v1.7 spec
that provides security to NVDIMM. The following abilities are added:
1. display security state
2. update security

Add support for disable security to libndctl and also command line option
of "disable-security" for ndctl. This provides a way to disable security
on the nvdimm. ndctl does not handle the actual processing of the
passphrase. It only starts the request.

Adding a reference upcall helper for request-key in order to retrieve the

Add API call for triggering sysfs knob to update the security for a DIMM
in libndctl. Also add the ndctl "update-security" to trigger that as well.
ndctl does not actually handle the passphrase file. It only initiates the
update and expects all the necessary mechanisms are already in place.

Add support for secure erase to libndctl and also command line option

Dear Maintainers of Linux-s390,
Greetings.
May I have your ack's for this patch? The whole series would be applied
to libnvdimm if it could get your approval.
And any suggestion is welcome.
Cheers,
