drivers core: Use sysfs_emit and sysfs_emit_at for show(device *...) functions

2022-01-16T08:15:38Z

commit aa838896d87af561a33ecefea1caa4c15a68bc47 upstream. Convert the various sprintf fmaily calls in sysfs device show functions to sysfs_emit and sysfs_emit_at for PAGE_SIZE buffer safety. Done with: $ spatch -sp-file sysfs_emit_dev.cocci --in-place --max-width=80 .

drivers/base/memory.c: indicate all memory blocks as removable

2020-04-01T09:02:02Z

commit 53cdc1cb29e87ce5a61de5bb393eb08925d14ede upstream. We see multiple issues with the implementation/interface to compute whether a memory block can be offlined (exposed via /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/removable) and would like to simplify it (remove the implementation). 1. It runs basically lockless. While this might be good for performance, we see possible races with memory offlining that will require at least some sort of locking to fix. 2. Nowadays, more false positives are possible. No arch-specific checks are performed that validate if memory offlining will not be denied right away (and such check will require locking). For example, arm64 won't allow to offline any memory block that was added during boot - which will imply a very high error rate. Other archs have other constraints. 3. The interface is inherently racy. E.g., if a memory block is detected to be removable (and was not a false positive at that time), there is still no guarantee that offlining will actually succeed. So any caller already has to deal with false positives. 4. It is unclear which performance benefit this interface actually provides. The introducing commit 5c755e9fd813 ("memory-hotplug: add sysfs removable attribute for hotplug memory remove") mentioned "A user-level agent must be able to identify which sections of memory are likely to be removable before attempting the potentially expensive operation." However, no actual performance comparison was included. Known users: - lsmem: Will group memory blocks based on the "removable" property. [1] - chmem: Indirect user. It has a RANGE mode where one can specify removable ranges identified via lsmem to be offlined. However, it also has a "SIZE" mode, which allows a sysadmin to skip the manual "identify removable blocks" step. [2] - powerpc-utils: Uses the "removable" attribute to skip some memory blocks right away when trying to find some to offline+remove. However, with ballooning enabled, it already skips this information completely (because it once resulted in many false negatives). Therefore, the implementation can deal with false positives properly already. [3] According to Nathan Fontenot, DLPAR on powerpc is nowadays no longer driven from userspace via the drmgr command (powerpc-utils). Nowadays it's managed in the kernel - including onlining/offlining of memory blocks - triggered by drmgr writing to /sys/kernel/dlpar. So the affected legacy userspace handling is only active on old kernels. Only very old versions of drmgr on a new kernel (unlikely) might execute slower - totally acceptable. With CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, always indicating "removable" should not break any user space tool. We implement a very bad heuristic now. Without CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE we cannot offline anything, so report "not removable" as before. Original discussion can be found in [4] ("[PATCH RFC v1] mm: is_mem_section_removable() overhaul"). Other users of is_mem_section_removable() will be removed next, so that we can remove is_mem_section_removable() completely.

mm/memory_hotplug: fix try_offline_node()

2019-11-16T02:34:00Z

try_offline_node() is pretty much broken right now: - The node span is updated when onlining memory, not when adding it. We ignore memory that was mever onlined. Bad. - We touch possible garbage memmaps. The pfn_to_nid(pfn) can easily trigger a kernel panic. Bad for memory that is offline but also bad for subsection hotadd with ZONE_DEVICE, whereby the memmap of the first PFN of a section might contain garbage. - Sections belonging to mixed nodes are not properly considered. As memory blocks might belong to multiple nodes, we would have to walk all pageblocks (or at least subsections) within present sections. However, we don't have a way to identify whether a memmap that is not online was initialized (relevant for ZONE_DEVICE). This makes things more complicated. Luckily, we can piggy pack on the node span and the nid stored in memory blocks. Currently, the node span is grown when calling move_pfn_range_to_zone() - e.g., when onlining memory, and shrunk when removing memory, before calling try_offline_node(). Sysfs links are created via link_mem_sections(), e.g., during boot or when adding memory. If the node still spans memory or if any memory block belongs to the nid, we don't set the node offline. As memory blocks that span multiple nodes cannot get offlined, the nid stored in memory blocks is reliable enough (for such online memory blocks, the node still spans the memory). Introduce for_each_memory_block() to efficiently walk all memory blocks. Note: We will soon stop shrinking the ZONE_DEVICE zone and the node span when removing ZONE_DEVICE memory to fix similar issues (access of garbage memmaps) - until we have a reliable way to identify whether these memmaps were properly initialized. This implies later, that once a node had ZONE_DEVICE memory, we won't be able to set a node offline - which should be acceptable. Since commit f1dd2cd13c4b ("mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until online") memory that is added is not assoziated with a zone/node (memmap not initialized). The introducing commit 60a5a19e7419 ("memory-hotplug: remove sysfs file of node") already missed that we could have multiple nodes for a section and that the zone/node span is updated when onlining pages, not when adding them. I tested this by hotplugging two DIMMs to a memory-less and cpu-less NUMA node. The node is properly onlined when adding the DIMMs. When removing the DIMMs, the node is properly offlined.

drivers/base/memory.c: don't access uninitialized memmaps in soft_offline_page_store()

2019-10-19T10:32:31Z

Uninitialized memmaps contain garbage and in the worst case trigger kernel BUGs, especially with CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING. They should not get touched. Right now, when trying to soft-offline a PFN that resides on a memory block that was never onlined, one gets a misleading error with CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING: :/# echo 5637144576 > /sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page [ 23.097167] soft offline: 0x150000 page already poisoned But the actual result depends on the garbage in the memmap. soft_offline_page() can only work with online pages, it returns -EIO in case of ZONE_DEVICE. Make sure to only forward pages that are online (iow, managed by the buddy) and, therefore, have an initialized memmap. Add a check against pfn_to_online_page() and similarly return -EIO.

drivers/base/memory.c: don't store end_section_nr in memory blocks

2019-09-24T22:54:09Z

Each memory block spans the same amount of sections/pages/bytes. The size is determined before the first memory block is created. No need to store what we can easily calculate - and the calculations even look simpler now. Michal brought up the idea of variable-sized memory blocks. However, if we ever implement something like this, we will need an API compatibility switch and reworks at various places (most code assumes a fixed memory block size). So let's cleanup what we have right now. While at it, fix the variable naming in register_mem_sect_under_node() - we no longer talk about a single section.

driver/base/memory.c: validate memory block size early

2019-09-24T22:54:09Z

Let's validate the memory block size early, when initializing the memory device infrastructure. Fail hard in case the value is not suitable. As nobody checks the return value of memory_dev_init(), turn it into a void function and fail with a panic in all scenarios instead. Otherwise, we'll crash later during boot when core/drivers expect that the memory device infrastructure (including memory_block_size_bytes()) works as expected. I think long term, we should move the whole memory block size configuration (set_memory_block_size_order() and memory_block_size_bytes()) into drivers/base/memory.c.

drivers/base/node.c: simplify unregister_memory_block_under_nodes()

2019-09-24T22:54:09Z

We don't allow to offline memory block devices that belong to multiple numa nodes. Therefore, such devices can never get removed. It is sufficient to process a single node when removing the memory block. No need to iterate over each and every PFN. We already have the nid stored for each memory block. Make sure that the nid always has a sane value. Please note that checking for node_online(nid) is not required. If we would have a memory block belonging to a node that is no longer offline, then we would have a BUG in the node offlining code.
