Virtio-mem managed memory is always detected and added by the virtio-mem
driver, never using something like the firmware-provided memory map.
This is the case after an ordinary system reboot, and has to be guaranteed
after kexec. Especially, virtio-mem added memory resources can contain
inaccessible parts ("unblocked memory blocks"), blindly forwarding them
to a kexec kernel is dangerous, as unplugged memory will get accessed
(esp. written).
Let's use the new way of adding special driver-managed memory introduced
in commit 7b7b27214b ("mm/memory_hotplug: introduce
add_memory_driver_managed()").
This will result in no entries in /sys/firmware/memmap ("raw firmware-
provided memory map"), the memory resource will be flagged
IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED (esp., kexec_file_load() will not place
kexec images on this memory), and it is exposed as "System RAM
(virtio_mem)" in /proc/iomem, so esp. kexec-tools can properly handle it.
Example /proc/iomem before this change:
[...]
140000000-333ffffff : virtio0
140000000-147ffffff : System RAM
334000000-533ffffff : virtio1

If subblock size is large (e.g. 1G) 32 bit math involving it
can overflow. Rather than try to catch all instances of that,
let's tweak block size to 64 bit.
It ripples through UAPI which is an ABI change, but it's not too late to
make it, and it will allow supporting >4Gbyte blocks while might

We also want to unplug online memory (contained in online memory blocks
and, therefore, managed by the buddy), and eventually replug it later.
When requested to unplug memory, we use alloc_contig_range() to allocate
subblocks in online memory blocks (so we are the owner) and send them to
our hypervisor. When requested to plug memory, we can replug such memory
using free_contig_range() after asking our hypervisor.
We also want to mark all allocated pages PG_offline, so nobody will
touch them. To differentiate pages that were never onlined when
onlining the memory block from pages allocated via alloc_contig_range(), we
use PageDirty(). Based on this flag, virtio_mem_fake_online() can either
online the pages for the first time or use free_contig_range().
It is worth noting that there are no guarantees on how much memory can
actually get unplugged again. All device memory might completely be
fragmented with unmovable data, such that no subblock can get unplugged.
We are not touching the ZONE_MOVABLE. If memory is onlined to the
ZONE_MOVABLE, it can only get unplugged after that memory was offlined
manually by user space. In normal operation, virtio-mem memory is
suggested to be onlined to ZONE_NORMAL. In the future, we will try to
make unplug more likely to succeed.
Add a module parameter to control if online memory shall be touched.
As we want to access alloc_contig_range()/free_contig_range() from
kernel module context, export the symbols.
Note: Whenever virtio-mem uses alloc_contig_range(), all affected pages
are on the same node, in the same zone, and contain no holes.

Each virtio-mem device owns exactly one memory region. It is responsible
for adding/removing memory from that memory region on request.
When the device driver starts up, the requested amount of memory is
queried and then plugged to Linux. On request, further memory can be
plugged or unplugged. This patch only implements the plugging part.
On x86-64, memory can currently be plugged in 4MB ("subblock") granularity.
When required, a new memory block will be added (e.g., usually 128MB on
x86-64) in order to plug more subblocks. Only x86-64 was tested for now.
The online_page callback is used to keep unplugged subblocks offline
when onlining memory - similar to the Hyper-V balloon driver. Unplugged
pages are marked PG_offline, to tell dump tools (e.g., makedumpfile) to
skip them.
User space is usually responsible for onlining the added memory. The
memory hotplug notifier is used to synchronize virtio-mem activity
against memory onlining/offlining.
Each virtio-mem device can belong to a NUMA node, which allows us to
easily add/remove small chunks of memory to/from a specific NUMA node by
using multiple virtio-mem devices. Something that works even when the
guest has no idea about the NUMA topology.
One way to view virtio-mem is as a "resizable DIMM" or a DIMM with many
"sub-DIMMS".
This patch directly introduces the basic infrastructure to implement memory
unplug. Especially the memory block states and subblock bitmaps will be
heavily used there.
Notes:
- In case memory is to be onlined by user space, we limit the amount of
offline memory blocks, to not run out of memory. This is esp. an
issue if memory is added faster than it is getting onlined.
- Suspend/Hibernate is not supported due to the way virtio-mem devices
behave. Limited support might be possible in the future.
- Reloading the device driver is not supported.

Commit 71994620bb ("virtio_balloon: replace oom notifier with shrinker")
changed the behavior when deflation happens automatically. Instead of
deflating when called by the OOM handler, the shrinker is used.
However, the balloon is not simply some other slab cache that should be
shrunk when under memory pressure. The shrinker does not have a concept
of priorities yet, so this behavior cannot be configured. Eventually once
that is in place, we might want to switch back after doing proper testing.
There was a report that this results in undesired side effects when
inflating the balloon to shrink the page cache. [1]
"When inflating the balloon against page cache (i.e. no free memory
remains) vmscan.c will both shrink page cache, but also invoke the
shrinkers -- including the balloon's shrinker. So the balloon
driver allocates memory which requires reclaim, vmscan gets this
memory by shrinking the balloon, and then the driver adds the
memory back to the balloon. Basically a busy no-op."
The name "deflate on OOM" makes it pretty clear when deflation should
happen - after other approaches to reclaim memory failed, not while
reclaiming. This allows to minimize the footprint of a guest - memory
will only be taken out of the balloon when really needed.
Keep using the shrinker for VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT, because
this has no such side effects. Always register the shrinker with
VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT now. We are always allowed to reuse free
pages that are still to be processed by the guest. The hypervisor takes
care of identifying and resolving possible races between processing a
hinting request and the guest reusing a page.
In contrast to pre commit 71994620bb ("virtio_balloon: replace oom
notifier with shrinker"), don't add a module parameter to configure the
number of pages to deflate on OOM. Can be re-added if really needed.
Also, pay attention that leak_balloon() returns the number of 4k pages -
convert it properly in virtio_balloon_oom_notify().
Testing done by Tyler for future reference:
Test setup: VM with 16 CPU, 64GB RAM. Running Debian 10. We have a 42
GB file full of random bytes that we continually cat to /dev/null.
This fills the page cache as the file is read. Meanwhile, we trigger
the balloon to inflate, with a target size of 53 GB. This setup causes
the balloon inflation to pressure the page cache as the page cache is
also trying to grow. Afterwards we shrink the balloon back to zero (so
total deflate == total inflate).
Without this patch (kernel 4.19.0-5):
Inflation never reaches the target until we stop the "cat file >
/dev/null" process. Total inflation time was 542 seconds. The longest
period that made no net forward progress was 315 seconds.
Result of "grep balloon /proc/vmstat" after the test:
balloon_inflate 154828377
balloon_deflate 154828377
With this patch (kernel 5.6.0-rc4+):
Total inflation duration was 63 seconds. No deflate-queue activity
occurs when pressuring the page-cache.
Result of "grep balloon /proc/vmstat" after the test:
balloon_inflate 12968539
balloon_deflate 12968539
Conclusion: This patch fixes the issue. In the test it reduced
inflate/deflate activity by 12x, and reduced inflation time by 8.6x.
But more importantly, if we hadn't killed the "cat file > /dev/null"
process then, without the patch, the inflation process would never reach
the target.

Add support for the page reporting feature provided by virtio-balloon.
Reporting differs from the regular balloon functionality in that is is
much less durable than a standard memory balloon. Instead of creating a
list of pages that cannot be accessed the pages are only inaccessible
while they are being indicated to the virtio interface. Once the
interface has acknowledged them they are placed back into their respective
free lists and are once again accessible by the guest system.
Unlike a standard balloon we don't inflate and deflate the pages. Instead
we perform the reporting, and once the reporting is completed it is
assumed that the page has been dropped from the guest and will be faulted
back in the next time the page is accessed.

This patch implements a software vDPA networking device. The datapath
is implemented through vringh and workqueue. The device has an on-chip
IOMMU which translates IOVA to PA. For kernel virtio drivers, vDPA
simulator driver provides dma_ops. For vhost driers, set_map() methods
of vdpa_config_ops is implemented to accept mappings from vhost.
Currently, vDPA device simulator will loopback TX traffic to RX. So
the main use case for the device is vDPA feature testing, prototyping
and development.
Note, there's no management API implemented, a vDPA device will be
registered once the module is probed. We need to handle this in the
future development.

A new virtio-vdpa driver will be registered to the vDPA bus, when a
new virtio-vdpa device is probed, it will register the device with
vdpa based config ops. This means it is a software transport between
vDPA driver and vDPA device. The transport was implemented through

vDPA device is a device that uses a datapath which complies with the
virtio specifications with vendor specific control path. vDPA devices
can be both physically located on the hardware or emulated by
software. vDPA hardware devices are usually implemented through PCIE
with the following types:
- PF (Physical Function) - A single Physical Function
- VF (Virtual Function) - Device that supports single root I/O
virtualization (SR-IOV). Its Virtual Function (VF) represents a
virtualized instance of the device that can be assigned to different
partitions
- ADI (Assignable Device Interface) and its equivalents - With
technologies such as Intel Scalable IOV, a virtual device (VDEV)
composed by host OS utilizing one or more ADIs. Or its equivalent
like SF (Sub function) from Mellanox.
>From a driver's perspective, depends on how and where the DMA
translation is done, vDPA devices are split into two types:
- Platform specific DMA translation - From the driver's perspective,
the device can be used on a platform where device access to data in
memory is limited and/or translated. An example is a PCIE vDPA whose
DMA request was tagged via a bus (e.g PCIE) specific way. DMA
translation and protection are done at PCIE bus IOMMU level.
- Device specific DMA translation - The device implements DMA
isolation and protection through its own logic. An example is a vDPA
device which uses on-chip IOMMU.
To hide the differences and complexity of the above types for a vDPA
device/IOMMU options and in order to present a generic virtio device
to the upper layer, a device agnostic framework is required.
This patch introduces a software vDPA bus which abstracts the
common attributes of vDPA device, vDPA bus driver and the
communication method (vdpa_config_ops) between the vDPA device
abstraction and the vDPA bus driver. This allows multiple types of
drivers to be used for vDPA device like the virtio_vdpa and vhost_vdpa
driver to operate on the bus and allow vDPA device could be used by
either kernel virtio driver or userspace vhost drivers as:
virtio drivers vhost drivers
| |
[virtio bus] [vhost uAPI]
| |
virtio device vhost device
virtio_vdpa drv vhost_vdpa drv
\ /
[vDPA bus]
|
vDPA device
hardware drv
|
[hardware bus]
|
vDPA hardware
With the abstraction of vDPA bus and vDPA bus operations, the
difference and complexity of the under layer hardware is hidden from
upper layer. The vDPA bus drivers on top can use a unified
vdpa_config_ops to control different types of vDPA device.

Commit 71994620bb ("virtio_balloon: replace oom notifier with shrinker")
changed the behavior when deflation happens automatically. Instead of
deflating when called by the OOM handler, the shrinker is used.
However, the balloon is not simply some slab cache that should be
shrunk when under memory pressure. The shrinker does not have a concept of
priorities, so this behavior cannot be configured.
There was a report that this results in undesired side effects when
inflating the balloon to shrink the page cache. [1]
"When inflating the balloon against page cache (i.e. no free memory
remains) vmscan.c will both shrink page cache, but also invoke the
shrinkers -- including the balloon's shrinker. So the balloon
driver allocates memory which requires reclaim, vmscan gets this
memory by shrinking the balloon, and then the driver adds the
memory back to the balloon. Basically a busy no-op."
The name "deflate on OOM" makes it pretty clear when deflation should
happen - after other approaches to reclaim memory failed, not while
reclaiming. This allows to minimize the footprint of a guest - memory
will only be taken out of the balloon when really needed.
Especially, a drop_slab() will result in the whole balloon getting
deflated - undesired. While handling it via the OOM handler might not be
perfect, it keeps existing behavior. If we want a different behavior, then
we need a new feature bit and document it properly (although, there should
be a clear use case and the intended effects should be well described).
Keep using the shrinker for VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT, because
this has no such side effects. Always register the shrinker with
VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT now. We are always allowed to reuse free
pages that are still to be processed by the guest. The hypervisor takes
care of identifying and resolving possible races between processing a
hinting request and the guest reusing a page.
In contrast to pre commit 71994620bb ("virtio_balloon: replace oom

number of pages to deflate on OOM. Can be re-added if really needed.
Also, pay attention that leak_balloon() returns the number of 4k pages -
convert it properly in virtio_balloon_oom_notify().
Note1: using the OOM handler is frowned upon, but it really is what we
need for this feature.
Note2: without VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST (iow, always with QEMU) we
could actually skip sending deflation requests to our hypervisor,
making the OOM path *very* simple. Besically freeing pages and
updating the balloon. If the communication with the host ever
becomes a problem on this call path.

counted any queue with a non-NULL callback as needing a vector.
Add a check to the per_vq_vectors loop so that vectors with no name are

virtio_balloon_shrinker_scan should return number of system pages freed,
but because it's calling functions that deal with balloon pages, it gets
confused and sometimes returns the number of balloon pages.
It does not matter practically as the exact number isn't
used, but it seems better to be consistent in case someone
starts using this API.
Further, if we ever tried to iteratively leak pages as
virtio_balloon_shrinker_scan tries to do, we'd run into issues - this is
because freed_pages was accumulating total freed pages, but was also
subtracted on each iteration from pages_to_free, which can result in
either leaking less memory than we were supposed to free, or more if
pages_to_free underruns.
On a system with 4K pages we are lucky that we are never asked to leak
more than 128 pages while we can leak up to 256 at a time,
but it looks like a real issue for systems with page size != 4K.
