mm/memory_hotplug: introduce add_memory_driver_managed()

2020-06-05T02:06:23Z

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: Interface to add driver-managed system ram", v4. kexec (via kexec_load()) can currently not properly handle memory added via dax/kmem, and will have similar issues with virtio-mem. kexec-tools will currently add all memory to the fixed-up initial firmware memmap. In case of dax/kmem, this means that - in contrast to a proper reboot - how that persistent memory will be used can no longer be configured by the kexec'd kernel. In case of virtio-mem it will be harmful, because that memory might contain inaccessible pieces that require coordination with hypervisor first. In both cases, we want to let the driver in the kexec'd kernel handle detecting and adding the memory, like during an ordinary reboot. Introduce add_memory_driver_managed(). More on the samentics are in patch #1. In the future, we might want to make this behavior configurable for dax/kmem- either by configuring it in the kernel (which would then also allow to configure kexec_file_load()) or in kexec-tools by also adding "System RAM (kmem)" memory from /proc/iomem to the fixed-up initial firmware memmap. More on the motivation can be found in [1] and [2]. [1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200429160803.109056-1-david@redhat.com [2] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200430102908.10107-1-david@redhat.com This patch (of 3): Some device drivers rely on memory they managed to not get added to the initial (firmware) memmap as system RAM - so it's not used as initial system RAM by the kernel and the driver is under control. While this is the case during cold boot and after a reboot, kexec is not aware of that and might add such memory to the initial (firmware) memmap of the kexec kernel. We need ways to teach kernel and userspace that this system ram is different. For example, dax/kmem allows to decide at runtime if persistent memory is to be used as system ram. Another future user is virtio-mem, which has to coordinate with its hypervisor to deal with inaccessible parts within memory resources. We want to let users in the kernel (esp. kexec) but also user space (esp. kexec-tools) know that this memory has different semantics and needs to be handled differently: 1. Don't create entries in /sys/firmware/memmap/ 2. Name the memory resource "System RAM ($DRIVER)" (exposed via /proc/iomem) ($DRIVER might be "kmem", "virtio_mem"). 3. Flag the memory resource IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED /sys/firmware/memmap/ [1] represents the "raw firmware-provided memory map" because "on most architectures that firmware-provided memory map is modified afterwards by the kernel itself". The primary user is kexec on x86-64. Since commit d96ae5309165 ("memory-hotplug: create /sys/firmware/memmap entry for new memory"), we add all hotplugged memory to that firmware memmap - which makes perfect sense for traditional memory hotplug on x86-64, where real HW will also add hotplugged DIMMs to the firmware memmap. We replicate what the "raw firmware-provided memory map" looks like after hot(un)plug. To keep things simple, let the user provide the full resource name instead of only the driver name - this way, we don't have to manually allocate/craft strings for memory resources. Also use the resource name to make decisions, to avoid passing additional flags. In case the name isn't "System RAM", it's special. We don't have to worry about firmware_map_remove() on the removal path. If there is no entry, it will simply return with -EINVAL. We'll adapt dax/kmem in a follow-up patch.

mm/memory_hotplug: Introduce offline_and_remove_memory()

2020-06-04T19:36:52Z

virtio-mem wants to offline and remove a memory block once it unplugged all subblocks (e.g., using alloc_contig_range()). Let's provide an interface to do that from a driver. virtio-mem already supports to offline partially unplugged memory blocks. Offlining a fully unplugged memory block will not require to migrate any pages. All unplugged subblocks are PageOffline() and have a reference count of 0 - so offlining code will simply skip them. All we need is an interface to offline and remove the memory from kernel module context, where we don't have access to the memory block devices (esp. find_memory_block() and device_offline()) and the device hotplug lock. To keep things simple, allow to only work on a single memory block.

mm/memory_hotplug: add pgprot_t to mhp_params

2020-04-10T22:36:21Z

devm_memremap_pages() is currently used by the PCI P2PDMA code to create struct page mappings for IO memory. At present, these mappings are created with PAGE_KERNEL which implies setting the PAT bits to be WB. However, on x86, an mtrr register will typically override this and force the cache type to be UC-. In the case firmware doesn't set this register it is effectively WB and will typically result in a machine check exception when it's accessed. Other arches are not currently likely to function correctly seeing they don't have any MTRR registers to fall back on. To solve this, provide a way to specify the pgprot value explicitly to arch_add_memory(). Of the arches that support MEMORY_HOTPLUG: x86_64, and arm64 need a simple change to pass the pgprot_t down to their respective functions which set up the page tables. For x86_32, set the page tables explicitly using _set_memory_prot() (seeing they are already mapped). For ia64, s390 and sh, reject anything but PAGE_KERNEL settings -- this should be fine, for now, seeing these architectures don't support ZONE_DEVICE. A check in __add_pages() is also added to ensure the pgprot parameter was set for all arches.

mm/memory_hotplug: drop the flags field from struct mhp_restrictions

2020-04-10T22:36:21Z

Patch series "Allow setting caching mode in arch_add_memory() for P2PDMA", v4. Currently, the page tables created using memremap_pages() are always created with the PAGE_KERNEL cacheing mode. However, the P2PDMA code is creating pages for PCI BAR memory which should never be accessed through the cache and instead use either WC or UC. This still works in most cases, on x86, because the MTRR registers typically override the caching settings in the page tables for all of the IO memory to be UC-. However, this tends not to work so well on other arches or some rare x86 machines that have firmware which does not setup the MTRR registers in this way. Instead of this, this series proposes a change to arch_add_memory() to take the pgprot required by the mapping which allows us to explicitly set pagetable entries for P2PDMA memory to UC. This changes is pretty routine for most of the arches: x86_64, arm64 and powerpc simply need to thread the pgprot through to where the page tables are setup. x86_32 unfortunately sets up the page tables at boot so must use _set_memory_prot() to change their caching mode. ia64, s390 and sh don't appear to have an easy way to change the page tables so, for now at least, we just return -EINVAL on such mappings and thus they will not support P2PDMA memory until the work for this is done. This should be fine as they don't yet support ZONE_DEVICE. This patch (of 7): This variable is not used anywhere and should therefore be removed from the structure.

mm/memory_hotplug: allow to specify a default online_type

2020-04-07T17:43:41Z

For now, distributions implement advanced udev rules to essentially - Don't online any hotplugged memory (s390x) - Online all memory to ZONE_NORMAL (e.g., most virt environments like hyperv) - Online all memory to ZONE_MOVABLE in case the zone imbalance is taken care of (e.g., bare metal, special virt environments) In summary: All memory is usually onlined the same way, however, the kernel always has to ask user space to come up with the same answer. E.g., Hyper-V always waits for a memory block to get onlined before continuing, otherwise it might end up adding memory faster than onlining it, which can result in strange OOM situations. This waiting slows down adding of a bigger amount of memory. Let's allow to specify a default online_type, not just "online" and "offline". This allows distributions to configure the default online_type when booting up and be done with it. We can now specify "offline", "online", "online_movable" and "online_kernel" via - "memhp_default_state=" on the kernel cmdline - /sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks just like we are able to specify for a single memory block via /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/state Signed-off-by: David Hildenbrand Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Reviewed-by: Wei Yang Reviewed-by: Baoquan He Acked-by: Michal Hocko Acked-by: Pankaj Gupta Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman Cc: Oscar Salvador Cc: "Rafael J.

Historically, we used the value -1. Just treat 0 as the special case now. Clarify a comment (which was wrong, when we come via device_online() the first time, the online_type would have been 0 / MEM_ONLINE). The default is now always MMOP_OFFLINE.
