From 7c02d53dfe4db08cd7b4d4be8c7f1b801cf8b899 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jane Chu Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2020 16:41:38 -0600 Subject: libnvdimm/security: the 'security' attr never show 'overwrite' state 'security' attribute displays the security state of an nvdimm. During normal operation, the nvdimm state maybe one of 'disabled', 'unlocked' or 'locked'. When an admin issues # ndctl sanitize-dimm nmem0 --overwrite the attribute is expected to change to 'overwrite' until the overwrite operation completes. But tests on our systems show that 'overwrite' is never shown during the overwrite operation. i.e. # cat /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/ACPI0012:00/ndbus0/nmem0/security unlocked the attribute remain 'unlocked' through out the operation, consequently "ndctl wait-overwrite nmem0" command doesn't wait at all. The driver tracks the state in 'nvdimm->sec.flags': when the operation starts, it adds an overwrite bit to the flags; and when the operation completes, it removes the bit. Hence security_show() should check the 'overwrite' bit first, in order to indicate the actual state when multiple bits are set in the flags.
