  [SRU] Unable to modify/create-namespace over NVDIMM-N

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Users are unable to modify or create namespaces over NVDIMM-N

  [Test Case]

  Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Setup a Dell EMC 14G server R740xd server with NVDIMM-N, update BIOS & 
NVDIMM firmware to latest available to customers.
  2. Install and boot to Ubuntu 18.04
  3. Notice that no pmems are enumerated.
  4. Try #ndctl create-namespace -> Failure with device or resource busy.

  Actual results:
  No pmems are enumerated, cannot create namespaces.
  If pmems are already present, then cannot modify the namespaces.

  Expected results:
  namespace creation should be possible

  
  [Regression Potential] 

  The Regression Risk is low, Intel not impacted but Dell is.

2019-01-25 Thread Jerry Clement
After booting to the OS, user is unable to create namespaces by running "ndctl 
create-namespace". Even by using flags such as -f or -e, the operation is not 
successful.
I am not aware of ipmctl being approved as a management tool for nvdimm-n (yet?)

Out of curiosity, Are you using ipmctl and libsafec from Juston Li's
PPAs to do the configuration of the NVDIMMs?

Can you add the Firmware versions for the BIOS and for the NVDIMM.  Also
can you include the uname -a information as well.
