Subject: [PATCH 0/3] libnvdimm/security: Enumerate the frozen state and other cleanups
Date: Wed, 14 Aug 2019 18:20:13 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <156583201347.2815870.4687949334637966672.stgit@dwillia2-desk3.amr.corp.intel.com> (raw)

Jeff reported a scenario where ndctl was failing to unlock DIMMs [1].
Through the course of debug it was discovered that the security
interface on the DIMMs was in the 'frozen' state disallowing unlock, or
any security operation.  Unfortunately the kernel only showed that the
DIMMs were 'locked', not 'locked' and 'frozen'.

Introduce a new sysfs 'frozen' attribute so that ndctl can reflect the
"security-operations-allowed" state independently of the lock status.
Then, followup with cleanups related to replacing a security-state-enum
with a set of flags.
