Implement support for the non-pmem exclusive secure erase, per CXL specs. Create a write-only 'security/erase' sysfs file to perform the requested operation. As with the sanitation this requires the device being offline and thus no active HPA-DPA decoding. The expectation is that userspace can use it such as: cxl disable-memdev memX echo 1 > /sys/bus/cxl/devices/memX/security/erase cxl enable-memdev memX Reviewed-by: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Fan Ni <fan.ni@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230612181038.14421-7-dave@stgolabs.net Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
