libnvdimm, dax: fix 1GB-aligned namespaces vs physical misalignment
commit
41fce90f26333c4fa82e8e43b9ace86c4e8a0120 upstream.
The following namespace configuration attempt:
# ndctl create-namespace -e namespace0.0 -m devdax -a 1G -f
libndctl: ndctl_dax_enable: dax0.1: failed to enable
Error: namespace0.0: failed to enable
failed to reconfigure namespace: No such device or address
...fails when the backing memory range is not physically aligned to 1G:
# cat /proc/iomem | grep Persistent
210000000-
30fffffff : Persistent Memory (legacy)
In the above example the 4G persistent memory range starts and ends on a
256MB boundary.
We handle this case correctly when needing to handle cases that violate
section alignment (128MB) collisions against "System RAM", and we simply
need to extend that padding/truncation for the 1GB alignment use case.
