ndctl: release v83 This release incorporates functionality up through the 6.17 kernel. It corrects the issue where libtracefs became a requirement to build versions 80,81,82. Libtracefs is returned to optional status in v83. Note that the '--media-errors' option to cxl-list, as well as the monitor command, is not available when libtracefs is disabled. API: cxl: add helper function to verify port is in memdev hierarchy cxl: document 'cxl enable-port -m' behavior change Tests: README.md: update package requirements for the test environment test/cxl-poison.sh: test inject and clear poison by region offset test/common: move err() function to top of file test/common: add double quotes to bash variables test/dax.sh: adjust trace parsing of fault results test/dm.sh: use dm.sh as script name in cleanup error message test/meson.build: add fwctl dependency needed for cxl-features.sh test/sub-section.sh: use built ndctl program in unit test Infrastructure: cxl/list: remove libtracefs build dependency for --media-errors build: update meson feature deprecation warnings ndctl: fix user visible spelling errors
ndctl: release v82
This release incorporates functionality up through the 6.15 kernel.
Aligning with the CXL Features capability introduced in the 6.15
kernel, ndctl adds libcxl enumeration of FWCTL character devices
which enables issuing of the new ioctl's to the device.
A new CXL Features unit test is added and it includes a C program
"fwctl.c" that provides an example for users of the new capability.
Existing test and infrastructure is updated.
API:
libcxl: enumerate major/minor of FWCTL char device
libcxl: add cxl_bus_get_by_provider()
Tests:
test/cxl-features.sh: add test for CXL features device
test/cxl-xor-region.sh: remove redundant waiting
test/cxl-topology.sh: change assumption on host bridge validation
Infrastructure:
README.md: update the kernel config requirement for unit tests
test/meson.build: use the default POSIX locale for unit tests
cxl: add features.h from kernel UAPI for CXL Features support
cxl/test: skip, don't fail, when kernel tracing is not enabled
cxl/test: set the $CXL environment variable in meson.build
