Pavel Tatashin ea1f5f3712 mm: define memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw
* A new variant of memblock_virt_alloc_* allocations:
memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw()
    - Does not zero the allocated memory
    - Does not panic if request cannot be satisfied

* optimize early system hash allocations

Clients can call alloc_large_system_hash() with flag: HASH_ZERO to
specify that memory that was allocated for system hash needs to be
zeroed, otherwise the memory does not need to be zeroed, and client will
initialize it.

If memory does not need to be zero'd, call the new
memblock_virt_alloc_raw() interface, and thus improve the boot
performance.

* debug for raw alloctor

When CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled, this patch sets all the memory that is
returned by memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw() to ones to ensure that no
places excpect zeroed memory.

Gioh Kim 66e8b438bd mm/memblock.c: make the index explicit argument of for_each_memblock_type
for_each_memblock_type macro function relies on idx variable defined in
the caller context.  Silent macro arguments are almost always wrong
thing to do.  They make code harder to read and easier to get wrong.
Let's use an explicit iterator parameter for for_each_memblock_type and
make the code more obious.  This patch is a mere cleanup and it
shouldn't introduce any functional change.

Pavel Tatashin 3010f87650 mm: discard memblock data later
There is existing use after free bug when deferred struct pages are
enabled:

The memblock_add() allocates memory for the memory array if more than
128 entries are needed.  See comment in e820__memblock_setup():

  * The bootstrap memblock region count maximum is 128 entries
  * (INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS), but EFI might pass us more E820 entries
  * than that - so allow memblock resizing.

This memblock memory is freed here:
        free_low_memory_core_early()

We access the freed memblock.memory later in boot when deferred pages
are initialized in this path:

        deferred_init_memmap()
                for_each_mem_pfn_range()
                  __next_mem_pfn_range()
                    type = &memblock.memory;

One possible explanation for why this use-after-free hasn't been hit
before is that the limit of INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS has never been
exceeded at least on systems where deferred struct pages were enabled.

Tested by reducing INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS down to 4 from the current 128,
and verifying in qemu that this code is getting excuted and that the
freed pages are sane.

Michal Hocko 4932381ee2 mm, memory_hotplug: move movable_node to the hotplug proper
movable_node_is_enabled is defined in memblock proper while it is
initialized from the memory hotplug proper.  This is quite messy and it
makes a dependency between the two so move movable_node along with the
helper functions to memory_hotplug.

To make it more entertaining the kernel parameter is ignored unless
CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP=y because we do not have the node
information for each memblock otherwise.  So let's warn when the option
is disabled.

Michal Hocko f70029bbaa mm, memory_hotplug: drop CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE
Commit 20b2f52b73 ("numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for
movable-dedicated node") has introduced CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE without a
good explanation on why it is actually useful.

It makes a lot of sense to make movable node semantic opt in but we
already have that because the feature has to be explicitly enabled on
the kernel command line.  A config option on top only makes the
configuration space larger without a good reason.  It also adds an
additional ifdefery that pollutes the code.

Just drop the config option and make it de-facto always enabled.  This
shouldn't introduce any change to the semantic.

the reason is that the managed memory is too low (only 110MB) while the
rest of the the 50GB is still waiting for the deferred intialization to
be done.  update_defer_init estimates the initial memoty to initialize
to 2GB at least but it doesn't consider any memory allocated in that
range.  In this particular case we've had

	Reserving 4096MB of memory at 128MB for crashkernel (System RAM: 51200MB)

so the low 2GB is mostly depleted.

Fix this by considering memblock allocations in the initial static
initialization estimation.  Move the max_initialise to
reset_deferred_meminit and implement a simple memblock_reserved_memory
helper which iterates all reserved blocks and sums the size of all that
start below the given address.  The cumulative size is than added on top
of the initial estimation.  This is still not ideal because
reset_deferred_meminit doesn't consider holes and so reservation might
be above the initial estimation whihch we ignore but let's make the
logic simpler until we really need to handle more complicated cases.

AKASHI Takahiro c9ca9b4e21 memblock: add memblock_cap_memory_range()
Add memblock_cap_memory_range() which will remove all the memblock regions
except the memory range specified in the arguments. In addition, rework is
done on memblock_mem_limit_remove_map() to re-implement it using
memblock_cap_memory_range().

This function, like memblock_mem_limit_remove_map(), will not remove
memblocks with MEMMAP_NOMAP attribute as they may be mapped and accessed
later as "device memory."
See the commit a571d4eb55 ("mm/memblock.c: add new infrastructure to
address the mem limit issue").

This function is used, in a succeeding patch in the series of arm64 kdump
suuport, to limit the range of usable memory, or System RAM, on crash dump
kernel.
(Please note that "mem=" parameter is of little use for this purpose.)

memblock_reserve() would add a new range to memblock.reserved in case
the new range is not totally covered by any of the current
memblock.reserved range.  If the memblock.reserved is full and can't
resize, memblock_reserve() would fail.

This doesn't happen in real world now, I observed this during code
review.  While theoretically, it has the chance to happen.  And if it
happens, others would think this range of memory is still available and
may corrupt the memory.

This patch checks the return value and goto "done" after it succeeds.

Paul Burton b92df1de5d mm: page_alloc: skip over regions of invalid pfns where possible
When using a sparse memory model memmap_init_zone() when invoked with
the MEMMAP_EARLY context will skip over pages which aren't valid - ie.
which aren't in a populated region of the sparse memory map.  However if
the memory map is extremely sparse then it can spend a long time
linearly checking each PFN in a large non-populated region of the memory
map & skipping it in turn.

When CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is enabled, we have sufficient
information to quickly discover the next valid PFN given an invalid one
by searching through the list of memory regions & skipping forwards to
the first PFN covered by the memory region to the right of the
non-populated region.  Implement this in order to speed up
memmap_init_zone() for systems with extremely sparse memory maps.

James said "I have tested this patch on a virtual model of a Samurai CPU
with a sparse memory map.  The kernel boot time drops from 109 to
62 seconds. "

Catalin Marinas 9099daed9c mm: kmemleak: avoid using __va() on addresses that don't have a lowmem mapping
Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a
physical address to a virtual one using __va().  However, such physical
addresses may sometimes be located in highmem and using __va() is
incorrect, leading to inconsistent object tracking in kmemleak.

The following functions have been added to the kmemleak API and they take
a physical address as the object pointer.  They only perform the
corresponding action if the address has a lowmem mapping:

kmemleak_alloc_phys
kmemleak_free_part_phys
kmemleak_not_leak_phys
kmemleak_ignore_phys

The affected calling places have been updated to use the new kmemleak
API.

zijun_hu e47608ab6d mm/memblock.c: fix NULL dereference error
It causes NULL dereference error and failure to get type_a->regions[0]
info if parameter type_b of __next_mem_range_rev() == NULL

Fix this by checking before dereferring and initializing idx_b to 0

The approach is tested by dumping all types of region via
__memblock_dump_all() and __next_mem_range_rev() fixed to UART
separately the result is okay after checking the logs.

Dennis Chen a571d4eb55 mm/memblock.c: add new infrastructure to address the mem limit issue
In some cases, memblock is queried by kernel to determine whether a
specified address is RAM or not.  For example, the ACPI core needs this
information to determine which attributes to use when mapping ACPI
regions(acpi_os_ioremap).  Use of incorrect memory types can result in
faults, data corruption, or other issues.

Removing memory with memblock_enforce_memory_limit() throws away this
information, and so a kernel booted with 'mem=' may suffer from the
issues described above.  To avoid this, we need to keep those NOMAP
regions instead of removing all above the limit, which preserves the
information we need while preventing other use of those regions.

This patch adds new infrastructure to retain all NOMAP memblock regions
while removing others, to cater for this.

memblock_add_region() and memblock_reserve_region() do nothing specific

We can do the same in memblock_add() and memblock_reserve() since both
memblock_add_region() and memblock_reserve_region() are not used by
anybody outside of memblock.c and memblock_{add,reserve}() have the same
set of flags and nids.

Since memblock_add_region() and memblock_reserve_region() will be
inlined, there will not be functional changes, but will improve code
readability a little.

Tang Chen 95cf82ecc1 mem-hotplug: handle node hole when initializing numa_meminfo.
When parsing SRAT, all memory ranges are added into numa_meminfo.  In
numa_init(), before entering numa_cleanup_meminfo(), all possible memory
ranges are in numa_meminfo.  And numa_cleanup_meminfo() removes all
ranges over max_pfn or empty.

But, this only works if the nodes are continuous.  Let's have a look at
the following example:

We have an SRAT like this:
SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00000000-0x5fffffff]
SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x100000000-0x1ffffffffff]
SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 [mem 0x20000000000-0x3ffffffffff]
SRAT: Node 4 PXM 2 [mem 0x40000000000-0x5ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 5 PXM 3 [mem 0x60000000000-0x7ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 2 PXM 4 [mem 0x80000000000-0x9ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 3 PXM 5 [mem 0xa0000000000-0xbffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 6 PXM 6 [mem 0xc0000000000-0xdffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 7 PXM 7 [mem 0xe0000000000-0xfffffffffff] hotplug

On boot, only node 0,1,2,3 exist.

And the numa_meminfo will look like this:
numa_meminfo.nr_blks = 9
1. on node 0: [0, 60000000]
2. on node 0: [100000000, 20000000000]
3. on node 1: [20000000000, 40000000000]
4. on node 4: [40000000000, 60000000000]
5. on node 5: [60000000000, 80000000000]
6. on node 2: [80000000000, a0000000000]
7. on node 3: [a0000000000, a0800000000]
8. on node 6: [c0000000000, a0800000000]
9. on node 7: [e0000000000, a0800000000]

And numa_cleanup_meminfo() will merge 1 and 2, and remove 8,9 because the
end address is over max_pfn, which is a0800000000.  But 4 and 5 are not
removed because their end addresses are less then max_pfn.  But in fact,
node 4 and 5 don't exist.

In a word, numa_cleanup_meminfo() is not able to handle holes between nodes.

Since memory ranges in node 4 and 5 are in numa_meminfo, in
numa_register_memblks(), node 4 and 5 will be mistakenly set to online.

If you run lscpu, it will show:
NUMA node0 CPU(s):     0-14,128-142
NUMA node1 CPU(s):     15-29,143-157
NUMA node2 CPU(s):
NUMA node3 CPU(s):
NUMA node4 CPU(s):     62-76,190-204
NUMA node5 CPU(s):     78-92,206-220

In this patch, we use memblock_overlaps_region() to check if ranges in
numa_meminfo overlap with ranges in memory_block.  Since memory_block
contains all available memory at boot time, if they overlap, it means the
ranges exist.  If not, then remove them from numa_meminfo.

After this patch, lscpu will show:
NUMA node0 CPU(s):     0-14,128-142
NUMA node1 CPU(s):     15-29,143-157
NUMA node4 CPU(s):     62-76,190-204
NUMA node5 CPU(s):     78-92,206-220

Robin Holt 8e7a7f8619 memblock: introduce a for_each_reserved_mem_region iterator
Struct page initialisation had been identified as one of the reasons why
large machines take a long time to boot. Patches were posted a long time ago
to defer initialisation until they were first used.  This was rejected on
the grounds it should not be necessary to hurt the fast paths. This series
reuses much of the work from that time but defers the initialisation of
memory to kswapd so that one thread per node initialises memory local to
that node.

After applying the series and setting the appropriate Kconfig variable I
see this in the boot log on a 64G machine

[    7.383764] kswapd 0 initialised deferred memory in 188ms
[    7.404253] kswapd 1 initialised deferred memory in 208ms
[    7.411044] kswapd 3 initialised deferred memory in 216ms
[    7.411551] kswapd 2 initialised deferred memory in 216ms

Once booted the machine appears to work as normal. Boot times were measured
from the time shutdown was called until ssh was available again.  In the
64G case, the boot time savings are negligible. On the 1TB machine, the
savings were 16 seconds.

This patch (of 13):

As part of initializing struct page's in 2MiB chunks, we noticed that at
the end of free_all_bootmem(), there was nothing which had forced the
reserved/allocated 4KiB pages to be initialized.

This helper function will be used for that expansion.

Tony Luck a3f5bafcc0 mm/memblock: allocate boot time data structures from mirrored memory
Try to allocate all boot time kernel data structures from mirrored
memory.

If we run out of mirrored memory print warnings, but fall back to using
non-mirrored memory to make sure that we still boot.

By number of bytes, most of what we allocate at boot time is the page
structures.  64 bytes per 4K page on x86_64 ...  or about 1.5% of total
system memory.  For workloads where the bulk of memory is allocated to
applications this may represent a useful improvement to system
availability since 1.5% of total memory might be a third of the memory
allocated to the kernel.

Tony Luck fc6daaf931 mm/memblock: add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on attribute
Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a
recoverable machine check.  Linux has included code for some time to
process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover
completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by
reading from disk).

But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code
execution.  Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever
be able to recover.

Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing.

Gen1: All memory is mirrored
	Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the
	     mirror
	Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications

Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers
	Pro: Keep more of the capacity
	Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from
	     mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance

Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory
      controller
	Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance
	Con: I have to write memory management code to implement

The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations.
This has been broken into two phases:

1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time
   allocations

2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the
   unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to
   select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because
   page_alloc.c is scary).

This patch (of 3):

Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on
attribute.  No functional changes

Alexander Kuleshov 6a4055bc72 mm/memblock.c: add debug output for memblock_add()
memblock_reserve() calls memblock_reserve_region() which prints debugging
information if 'memblock=debug' was passed on the command line.  This
patch adds the same behaviour, but for memblock_add function().

Tony Luck 4308ce17f6 mm/memblock.c: refactor functions to set/clear MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG
There is a lot of duplication in the rubric around actually setting or
clearing a mem region flag.  Create a new helper function to do this and
reduce each of memblock_mark_hotplug() and memblock_clear_hotplug() to a
single line.

This will be useful if someone were to add a new mem region flag - which
I hope to be doing some day soon. But it looks like a plausible cleanup
even without that - so I'd like to get it out of the way now.

Xishi Qiu 0a313a998a mem-hotplug: let memblock skip the hotpluggable memory regions in __next_mem_range()
Let memblock skip the hotpluggable memory regions in __next_mem_range(),
it is used to to prevent memblock from allocating hotpluggable memory
for the kernel at early time. The code is the same as __next_mem_range_rev().

Clear hotpluggable flag before releasing free pages to the buddy
allocator.  If we don't clear hotpluggable flag in
free_low_memory_core_early(), the memory which marked hotpluggable flag
will not free to buddy allocator.  Because __next_mem_range() will skip
them.
