mm, devm_memremap_pages: kill mapping "System RAM" support

2019-01-13T09:03:51Z

commit 06489cfbd915ff36c8e36df27f1c2dc60f97ca56 upstream. Given the fact that devm_memremap_pages() requires a percpu_ref that is torn down by devm_memremap_pages_release() the current support for mapping RAM is broken. Support for remapping "System RAM" has been broken since the beginning and there is no existing user of this this code path, so just kill the support and make it an explicit error. This cleanup also simplifies a follow-on patch to fix the error path when setting a devm release action for devm_memremap_pages_release() fails.

mm, devm_memremap_pages: mark devm_memremap_pages() EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL

2019-01-13T09:03:51Z

commit 808153e1187fa77ac7d7dad261ff476888dcf398 upstream. devm_memremap_pages() is a facility that can create struct page entries for any arbitrary range and give drivers the ability to subvert core aspects of page management. Specifically the facility is tightly integrated with the kernel's memory hotplug functionality. It injects an altmap argument deep into the architecture specific vmemmap implementation to allow allocating from specific reserved pages, and it has Linux specific assumptions about page structure reference counting relative to get_user_pages() and get_user_pages_fast(). It was an oversight and a mistake that this was not marked EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL from the outset. Again, devm_memremap_pagex() exposes and relies upon core kernel internal assumptions and will continue to evolve along with 'struct page', memory hotplug, and support for new memory types / topologies. Only an in-kernel GPL-only driver is expected to keep up with this ongoing evolution. This interface, and functionality derived from this interface, is not suitable for kernel-external drivers.

mm: Fix devm_memremap_pages() collision handling

2018-02-28T09:18:34Z

commit 77dd66a3c67c93ab401ccc15efff25578be281fd upstream. If devm_memremap_pages() detects a collision while adding entries to the radix-tree, we call pgmap_radix_release(). Unfortunately, the function removes *all* entries for the range -- including the entries that caused the collision in the first place. Modify pgmap_radix_release() to take an additional argument to indicate where to stop, so that only newly added entries are removed from the tree.

mm: Fix memory size alignment in devm_memremap_pages_release()

2018-02-22T14:43:48Z

commit 10a0cd6e4932b5078215b1ec2c896597eec0eff9 upstream. The functions devm_memremap_pages() and devm_memremap_pages_release() use different ways to calculate the section-aligned amount of memory. The latter function may use an incorrect size if the memory region is small but straddles a section border. Use the same code for both.

mm, devm_memremap_pages: hold device_hotplug lock over mem_hotplug_{begin, done}

2017-03-12T05:41:43Z

commit b5d24fda9c3dce51fcb4eee459550a458eaaf1e2 upstream. The mem_hotplug_{begin,done} lock coordinates with {get,put}_online_mems() to hold off "readers" of the current state of memory from new hotplug actions. mem_hotplug_begin() expects exclusive access, via the device_hotplug lock, to set mem_hotplug.active_writer. Calling mem_hotplug_begin() without locking device_hotplug can lead to corrupting mem_hotplug.refcount and missed wakeups / soft lockups.

mm: fix devm_memremap_pages crash, use mem_hotplug_{begin, done}

2017-01-19T19:17:58Z

commit f931ab479dd24cf7a2c6e2df19778406892591fb upstream. Both arch_add_memory() and arch_remove_memory() expect a single threaded context. For example, arch/x86/mm/init_64.c::kernel_physical_mapping_init() does not hold any locks over this check and branch: if (pgd_val(*pgd)) { pud = (pud_t *)pgd_page_vaddr(*pgd); paddr_last = phys_pud_init(pud, __pa(vaddr), __pa(vaddr_end), page_size_mask); continue; } pud = alloc_low_page(); paddr_last = phys_pud_init(pud, __pa(vaddr), __pa(vaddr_end), page_size_mask); The result is that two threads calling devm_memremap_pages() simultaneously can end up colliding on pgd initialization. This leads to crash signatures like the following where the loser of the race initializes the wrong pgd entry: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff888ebfff0000 IP: memcpy_erms+0x6/0x10 PGD 2f8e8fc067 PUD 0 /* <---- Invalid PUD */ Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC CPU: 54 PID: 3818 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 4.6.7+ #13 task: ffff882fac290040 ti: ffff882f887a4000 task.ti: ffff882f887a4000 RIP: memcpy_erms+0x6/0x10 [..] Call Trace: ? pmem_do_bvec+0x205/0x370 [nd_pmem] ? blk_queue_enter+0x3a/0x280 pmem_rw_page+0x38/0x80 [nd_pmem] bdev_read_page+0x84/0xb0 Hold the standard memory hotplug mutex over calls to arch_{add,remove}_memory().

mm: fix cache mode of dax pmd mappings

2016-09-10T00:34:46Z

track_pfn_insert() in vmf_insert_pfn_pmd() is marking dax mappings as uncacheable rendering them impractical for application usage. DAX-pte mappings are cached and the goal of establishing DAX-pmd mappings is to attain more performance, not dramatically less (3 orders of magnitude). track_pfn_insert() relies on a previous call to reserve_memtype() to establish the expected page_cache_mode for the range. While memremap() arranges for reserve_memtype() to be called, devm_memremap_pages() does not. So, teach track_pfn_insert() and untrack_pfn() how to handle tracking without a vma, and arrange for devm_memremap_pages() to establish the write-back-cache reservation in the memtype tree.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

2016-07-29T00:38:16Z

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: - Replace pcommit with ADR / directed-flushing. The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is deprecated. Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement either ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm. ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers to the memory controller on a power-fail event. Flush addresses are defined in ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure: "Flush Hint Address Structure". A flush hint is an mmio address that when written and fenced assures that all previous posted writes targeting a given dimm have been flushed to media. - On-demand ARS (address range scrub). Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks in pmem devices. When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the media to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a re-scrub at any time. - Support for the Microsoft DSM (device specific method) command format. - Support for EDK2/OVMF virtual disk device memory ranges. - Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem. * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (41 commits) libnvdimm-btt: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "__nd_device_register" nfit: do an ARS scrub on hitting a latent media error nfit: move to nfit/ sub-directory nfit, libnvdimm: allow an ARS scrub to be triggered on demand libnvdimm: register nvdimm_bus devices with an nd_bus driver pmem: clarify a debug print in pmem_clear_poison x86/insn: remove pcommit Revert "KVM: x86: add pcommit support" nfit, tools/testing/nvdimm/: unify shutdown paths libnvdimm: move ->module to struct nvdimm_bus_descriptor nfit: cleanup acpi_nfit_init calling convention nfit: fix _FIT evaluation memory leak + use after free tools/testing/nvdimm: add manufacturing_{date|location} dimm properties tools/testing/nvdimm: add virtual ramdisk range acpi, nfit: treat virtual ramdisk SPA as pmem region pmem: kill __pmem address space pmem: kill wmb_pmem() libnvdimm, pmem: use nvdimm_flush() for namespace I/O writes fs/dax: remove wmb_pmem() libnvdimm, pmem: flush posted-write queues on shutdown ...

libnvdimm, pmem: allow nfit_test to override pmem_direct_access()

2016-06-24T18:39:29Z

Currently phys_to_pfn_t() is an exported symbol to allow nfit_test to override it and indicate that nfit_test-pmem is not device-mapped. Now, we want to enable nfit_test to operate without DMA_CMA and the pmem it provides will no longer be physically contiguous, i.e. won't be capable of supporting direct_access requests larger than a page. Make pmem_direct_access() a weak symbol so that it can be replaced by the tools/testing/nvdimm/ version, and move phys_to_pfn_t() to a static inline now that it no longer needs to be overridden.
