mm/memory_hotplug: Do not unlock when fails to take the device_hotplug_lock

2019-12-01T08:14:14+00:00

[ Upstream commit d2ab99403ee00d8014e651728a4702ea1ae5e52c ] When adding the memory by probing memory block in sysfs interface, there is an obvious issue that we will unlock the device_hotplug_lock when fails to takes it. That issue was introduced in Commit 8df1d0e4a265 ("mm/memory_hotplug: make add_memory() take the device_hotplug_lock") We should drop out in time when fails to take the device_hotplug_lock.

mm/memory_hotplug: make add_memory() take the device_hotplug_lock

2019-12-01T08:13:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8df1d0e4a265f25dc1e7e7624ccdbcb4a6630c89 ] add_memory() currently does not take the device_hotplug_lock, however is aleady called under the lock from arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/hotplug-memory.c drivers/acpi/acpi_memhotplug.c to synchronize against CPU hot-remove and similar. In general, we should hold the device_hotplug_lock when adding memory to synchronize against online/offline request (e.g. from user space) - which already resulted in lock inversions due to device_lock() and mem_hotplug_lock - see 30467e0b3be ("mm, hotplug: fix concurrent memory hot-add deadlock"). add_memory()/add_memory_resource() will create memory block devices, so this really feels like the right thing to do. Holding the device_hotplug_lock makes sure that a memory block device can really only be accessed (e.g. via .online/.state) from user space, once the memory has been fully added to the system. The lock is not held yet in drivers/xen/balloon.c arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/memtrace.c drivers/s390/char/sclp_cmd.c drivers/hv/hv_balloon.c So, let's either use the locked variants or take the lock. Don't export add_memory_resource(), as it once was exported to be used by XEN, which is never built as a module. If somebody requires it, we also have to export a locked variant (as device_hotplug_lock is never exported).

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

2019-10-29T08:17:36+00:00

commit 641fe2e9387a36f9ee01d7c69382d1fe147a5e98 upstream. 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.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mm, memory_hotplug: remove zone restrictions

2017-09-07T00:27:25+00:00

Historically we have enforced that any kernel zone (e.g ZONE_NORMAL) has to precede the Movable zone in the physical memory range. The purpose of the movable zone is, however, not bound to any physical memory restriction. It merely defines a class of migrateable and reclaimable memory. There are users (e.g. CMA) who might want to reserve specific physical memory ranges for their own purpose. Moreover our pfn walkers have to be prepared for zones overlapping in the physical range already because we do support interleaving NUMA nodes and therefore zones can interleave as well. This means we can allow each memory block to be associated with a different zone. Loosen the current onlining semantic and allow explicit onlining type on any memblock. That means that online_{kernel,movable} will be allowed regardless of the physical address of the memblock as long as it is offline of course. This might result in moveble zone overlapping with other kernel zones. Default onlining then becomes a bit tricky but still sensible. echo online > memoryXY/state will online the given block to 1) the default zone if the given range is outside of any zone 2) the enclosing zone if such a zone doesn't interleave with any other zone 3) the default zone if more zones interleave for this range where default zone is movable zone only if movable_node is enabled otherwise it is a kernel zone. Here is an example of the semantic with (movable_node is not present but it work in an analogous way). We start with following memblocks, all of them offline: memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory37/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory40/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory41/valid_zones:Normal Movable Now, we online block 34 in default mode and block 37 as movable root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online > memory34/state root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_movable > memory37/state memory34/valid_zones:Normal memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory37/valid_zones:Movable memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory40/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory41/valid_zones:Normal Movable As we can see all other blocks can still be onlined both into Normal and Movable zones and the Normal is default because the Movable zone spans only block37 now. root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_movable > memory41/state memory34/valid_zones:Normal memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory37/valid_zones:Movable memory38/valid_zones:Movable Normal memory39/valid_zones:Movable Normal memory40/valid_zones:Movable Normal memory41/valid_zones:Movable Now the default zone for blocks 37-41 has changed because movable zone spans that range. root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_kernel > memory39/state memory34/valid_zones:Normal memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory37/valid_zones:Movable memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory39/valid_zones:Normal memory40/valid_zones:Movable Normal memory41/valid_zones:Movable Note that the block 39 now belongs to the zone Normal and so block38 falls into Normal by default as well. For completness root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# for i in memory[34]? do echo online > $i/state 2>/dev/null done memory34/valid_zones:Normal memory35/valid_zones:Normal memory36/valid_zones:Normal memory37/valid_zones:Movable memory38/valid_zones:Normal memory39/valid_zones:Normal memory40/valid_zones:Movable memory41/valid_zones:Movable Implementation wise the change is quite straightforward. We can get rid of allow_online_pfn_range altogether. online_pages allows only offline nodes already. The original default_zone_for_pfn will become default_kernel_zone_for_pfn. New default_zone_for_pfn implements the above semantic. zone_for_pfn_range is slightly reorganized to implement kernel and movable online type explicitly and MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP becomes a catch all default behavior.

mm, memory_hotplug: display allowed zones in the preferred ordering

2017-09-07T00:27:25+00:00

Prior to commit f1dd2cd13c4b ("mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until online") we used to allow to change the valid zone types of a memory block if it is adjacent to a different zone type. This fact was reflected in memoryNN/valid_zones by the ordering of printed zones. The first one was default (echo online > memoryNN/state) and the other one could be onlined explicitly by online_{movable,kernel}. This behavior was removed by the said patch and as such the ordering was not all that important. In most cases a kernel zone would be default anyway. The only exception is movable_node handled by "mm, memory_hotplug: support movable_node for hotpluggable nodes". Let's reintroduce this behavior again because later patch will remove the zone overlap restriction and so user will be allowed to online kernel resp. movable block regardless of its placement. Original behavior will then become significant again because it would be non-trivial for users to see what is the default zone to online into. Implementation is really simple. Pull out zone selection out of move_pfn_range into zone_for_pfn_range helper and use it in show_valid_zones to display the zone for default onlining and then both kernel and movable if they are allowed. Default online zone is not duplicated.

mm, memory_hotplug: do not assume ZONE_NORMAL is default kernel zone

2017-07-06T23:24:32+00:00

Heiko Carstens has noticed that he can generate overlapping zones for ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL: DMA [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000007fffffff] Normal [mem 0x0000000080000000-0x000000017fffffff] $ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes 10000000 $ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/valid_zones DMA $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/online $ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/valid_zones Normal $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/online Normal $ cat /proc/zoneinfo Node 0, zone DMA spanned 524288 <----- present 458752 managed 455078 start_pfn: 0 <----- Node 0, zone Normal spanned 720896 present 589824 managed 571648 start_pfn: 327680 <----- The reason is that we assume that the default zone for kernel onlining is ZONE_NORMAL. This was a simplification introduced by the memory hotplug rework and it is easily fixable by checking the range overlap in the zone order and considering the first matching zone as the default one. If there is no such zone then assume ZONE_NORMAL as we have been doing so far.

mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until online

2017-07-06T23:24:32+00:00

The current memory hotplug implementation relies on having all the struct pages associate with a zone/node during the physical hotplug phase (arch_add_memory->__add_pages->__add_section->__add_zone). In the vast majority of cases this means that they are added to ZONE_NORMAL. This has been so since 9d99aaa31f59 ("[PATCH] x86_64: Support memory hotadd without sparsemem") and it wasn't a big deal back then because movable onlining didn't exist yet. Much later memory hotplug wanted to (ab)use ZONE_MOVABLE for movable onlining 511c2aba8f07 ("mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable memory and portion memory") and then things got more complicated. Rather than reconsidering the zone association which was no longer needed (because the memory hotplug already depended on SPARSEMEM) a convoluted semantic of zone shifting has been developed. Only the currently last memblock or the one adjacent to the zone_movable can be onlined movable. This essentially means that the online type changes as the new memblocks are added. Let's simulate memory hot online manually $ echo 0x100000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones Normal Movable $ echo $((0x100000000+(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable $ echo $((0x100000000+2*(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable $ echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/state $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable Normal This is an awkward semantic because an udev event is sent as soon as the block is onlined and an udev handler might want to online it based on some policy (e.g. association with a node) but it will inherently race with new blocks showing up. This patch changes the physical online phase to not associate pages with any zone at all. All the pages are just marked reserved and wait for the onlining phase to be associated with the zone as per the online request. There are only two requirements - existing ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE cannot overlap - ZONE_NORMAL precedes ZONE_MOVABLE in physical addresses the latter one is not an inherent requirement and can be changed in the future. It preserves the current behavior and made the code slightly simpler. This is subject to change in future. This means that the same physical online steps as above will lead to the following state: Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable Implementation: The current move_pfn_range is reimplemented to check the above requirements (allow_online_pfn_range) and then updates the respective zone (move_pfn_range_to_zone), the pgdat and links all the pages in the pfn range with the zone/node. __add_pages is updated to not require the zone and only initializes sections in the range. This allowed to simplify the arch_add_memory code (s390 could get rid of quite some of code). devm_memremap_pages is the only user of arch_add_memory which relies on the zone association because it only hooks into the memory hotplug only half way. It uses it to associate the new memory with ZONE_DEVICE but doesn't allow it to be {on,off}lined via sysfs. This means that this particular code path has to call move_pfn_range_to_zone explicitly. The original zone shifting code is kept in place and will be removed in the follow up patch for an easier review. Please note that this patch also changes the original behavior when offlining a memory block adjacent to another zone (Normal vs. Movable) used to allow to change its movable type. This will be handled later.

mm, memory_hotplug: consider offline memblocks removable

2017-07-06T23:24:32+00:00

is_pageblock_removable_nolock() relies on having zone association to examine all the page blocks to check whether they are movable or free. This is just wasting of cycles when the memblock is offline. Later patch in the series will also change the time when the page is associated with a zone so we let's bail out early if the memblock is offline.

mm, memory_hotplug: get rid of is_zone_device_section

2017-07-06T23:24:32+00:00

Device memory hotplug hooks into regular memory hotplug only half way. It needs memory sections to track struct pages but there is no need/desire to associate those sections with memory blocks and export them to the userspace via sysfs because they cannot be onlined anyway. This is currently expressed by for_device argument to arch_add_memory which then makes sure to associate the given memory range with ZONE_DEVICE. register_new_memory then relies on is_zone_device_section to distinguish special memory hotplug from the regular one. While this works now, later patches in this series want to move __add_zone outside of arch_add_memory path so we have to come up with something else. Add want_memblock down the __add_pages path and use it to control whether the section->memblock association should be done. arch_add_memory then just trivially want memblock for everything but for_device hotplug. remove_memory_section doesn't need is_zone_device_section either. We can simply skip all the memblock specific cleanup if there is no memblock for the given section. This shouldn't introduce any functional change.
