We want to specify flags when hotplugging memory. Let's prepare to pass
flags to memblock_add_node() by adjusting all existing users.
Note that when hotplugging memory the system is already up and running
and we might have concurrent memblock users: for example, while we're
hotplugging memory, kexec_file code might search for suitable memory
regions to place kexec images. It's important to add the memory
directly to memblock via a single call with the right flags, instead of
adding the memory first and apply flags later: otherwise, concurrent
memblock users might temporarily stumble over memblocks with wrong
flags, which will be important in a follow-up patch that introduces a
new flag to properly handle add_memory_driver_managed().

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: full support for add_memory_driver_managed() with CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK", v2.
Architectures that require CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK=y, such as arm64,
don't cleanly support add_memory_driver_managed() yet. Most
prominently, kexec_file can still end up placing kexec images on such
driver-managed memory, resulting in undesired behavior, for example,
having kexec images located on memory not part of the firmware-provided
memory map.
Teaching kexec to not place images on driver-managed memory is
especially relevant for virtio-mem. Details can be found in commit
7b7b27214b ("mm/memory_hotplug: introduce
add_memory_driver_managed()").
Extend memblock with a new flag and set it from memory hotplug code when
applicable. This is required to fully support virtio-mem on arm64,
making also kexec_file behave like on x86-64.
This patch (of 2):
If memblock_add_node() fails, we're most probably running out of memory.
While this is unlikely to happen, it can happen and having memory added
without a memblock can be problematic for architectures that use
memblock to detect valid memory. Let's fail in a nice way instead of
silently ignoring the error.

Currently, the "auto-movable" online policy does not allow for hotplugged
KERNEL (ZONE_NORMAL) memory to increase the amount of MOVABLE memory we
can have, primarily, because there is no coordiantion across memory
devices and we don't want to create zone-imbalances accidentially when
unplugging memory.
However, within a single memory device it's different. Let's allow for
KERNEL memory within a dynamic memory group to allow for more MOVABLE
within the same memory group. The only thing we have to take care of is
that the managing driver avoids zone imbalances by unplugging MOVABLE
memory first, otherwise there can be corner cases where unplug of memory
could result in (accidential) zone imbalances.
virtio-mem is the only user of dynamic memory groups and recently added
support for prioritizing unplug of ZONE_MOVABLE over ZONE_NORMAL, so we
don't need a new toggle to enable it for dynamic memory groups.
We limit this handling to dynamic memory groups, because:
* We want to keep the runtime overhead for collecting stats when
onlining a single memory block small. We tend to have only a handful of
dynamic memory groups, but we can have quite some static memory groups
(e.g., 256 DIMMs).
* It doesn't make too much sense for static memory groups, as we try
onlining all applicable memory blocks either completely to ZONE_MOVABLE
or not. In ordinary operation, we won't have a mixture of zones within
a static memory group.
When adding memory to a dynamic memory group, we'll first online memory to
ZONE_MOVABLE as long as early KERNEL memory allows for it. Then, we'll
online the next unit(s) to ZONE_NORMAL, until we can online the next
unit(s) to ZONE_MOVABLE.
For a simple virtio-mem device with a MOVABLE:KERNEL ratio of 3:1, it will
result in a layout like:
[M][M][M][M][M][M][M][M][N][M][M][M][N][M][M][M]...
^ movable memory due to early kernel memory
^ allows for more movable memory ...
^-----^ ... here
^ allows for more movable memory ...
^-----^ ... here
While the created layout is sub-optimal when it comes to contiguous zones,
it gives us the maximum flexibility when dynamically growing/shrinking a
device; we can grow small VMs really big in small steps, and still shrink
reliably to e.g., 1/4 of the maximum VM size in this example, removing
full memory blocks along with meta data more reliably.
Mark dynamic memory groups in the xarray such that we can efficiently
iterate over them when collecting stats. In usual setups, we have one
virtio-mem device per NUMA node, and usually only a small number of NUMA
nodes.
Note: for now, there seems to be no compelling reason to make this
behavior configurable.

Use memory groups to improve our "auto-movable" onlining policy:
1. For static memory groups (e.g., a DIMM), online a memory block MOVABLE
only if all other memory blocks in the group are either MOVABLE or could
be onlined MOVABLE. A DIMM will either be MOVABLE or not, not a mixture.
2. For dynamic memory groups (e.g., a virtio-mem device), online a
memory block MOVABLE only if all other memory blocks inside the
current unit are either MOVABLE or could be onlined MOVABLE. For a
virtio-mem device with a device block size with 512 MiB, all 128 MiB
memory blocks wihin a 512 MiB unit will either be MOVABLE or not, not
a mixture.
We have to pass the memory group to zone_for_pfn_range() to take the
memory group into account.
Note: for now, there seems to be no compelling reason to make this

In our "auto-movable" memory onlining policy, we want to make decisions
across memory blocks of a single memory device. Examples of memory
devices include ACPI memory devices (in the simplest case a single DIMM)
and virtio-mem. For now, we don't have a connection between a single
memory block device and the real memory device. Each memory device
consists of 1..X memory block devices.
Let's logically group memory blocks belonging to the same memory device in
"memory groups". Memory groups can span multiple physical ranges and a
memory group itself does not contain any information regarding physical
ranges, only properties (e.g., "max_pages") necessary for improved memory
onlining.
Introduce two memory group types:
1) Static memory group: E.g., a single ACPI memory device, consisting
of 1..X memory resources. A memory group consists of 1..Y memory
blocks. The whole group is added/removed in one go. If any part
cannot get offlined, the whole group cannot be removed.
2) Dynamic memory group: E.g., a single virtio-mem device. Memory is
dynamically added/removed in a fixed granularity, called a "unit",
consisting of 1..X memory blocks. A unit is added/removed in one go.
If any part of a unit cannot get offlined, the whole unit cannot be
removed.
In case of 1) we usually want either all memory managed by ZONE_MOVABLE or
none. In case of 2) we usually want to have as many units as possible
managed by ZONE_MOVABLE. We want a single unit to be of the same type.
For now, memory groups are an internal concept that is not exposed to user
space; we might want to change that in the future, though.
add_memory() users can specify a mgid instead of a nid when passing the
MHP_NID_IS_MGID flag.

When onlining without specifying a zone (using "online" instead of
"online_kernel" or "online_movable"), we currently select a zone such that
existing zones are kept contiguous. This online policy made sense in the
past, where contiguous zones where required.
We'd like to implement smarter policies, however:
* User space has little insight. As one example, it has no idea which
memory blocks logically belong together (e.g., to a DIMM or to a
virtio-mem device).
* Drivers that add memory in separate memory blocks, especially
virtio-mem, want memory to get onlined right from the kernel when
adding.
So we really want to have onlining to differing zones managed in the
kernel, configured by user space.
We see more and more cases where we might eventually hotplug a lot of
memory in the future (e.g., eventually grow a 2 GiB VM to 64 GiB),
however:
* Resizing happens dynamically, in smaller steps in both directions
(e.g., 2 GiB -> 8 GiB -> 4 GiB -> 16 GiB ...)
* We still want as much flexibility as possible, especially,
hotunplugging as much memory as possible later.
We can really only use "online_movable" if we know that the amount of
memory we are going to hotplug upfront, and we know that it won't result
in a zone imbalance. So in our example, a 2 GiB VM that could grow to 64
GiB could currently not use "online_movable", and instead, "online_kernel"
would have to be used, resulting in worse (no) memory hotunplug
reliability.
Let's add a new "auto-movable" online policy that considers the current
zone ratios (global, per-node) to determine, whether we a memory block can
be onlined to ZONE_MOVABLE:
MOVABLE : KERNEL
However, internally we'll only consider the following ratio for now:
MOVABLE : KERNEL_EARLY
For now, we don't allow for hotplugged KERNEL memory to allow for more
MOVABLE memory, because there is no coordination across memory devices.
In follow-up patches, we will allow for more KERNEL memory within a memory
device to allow for more MOVABLE memory within the same memory device --
which only makes sense for special memory device types.
We base our calculation on "present pages", see the code comments for
details. Hotplugged memory will get online to ZONE_MOVABLE if the
configured ratio allows for it. Depending on the setup, this can result
in fragmented zones, which can make compaction slower and dynamic
allocation of gigantic pages when not using CMA less reliable (... which
is already pretty unreliable).
The old policy will be the default and called "contig-zones". In
follow-up patches, our new policy will use additional information, such as
memory groups, to make even smarter decisions across memory blocks.
Configuration:
* memory_hotplug.online_policy is used to switch between both polices
and defaults to "contig-zones".
* memory_hotplug.auto_movable_ratio defines the maximum ratio is in
percent and defaults to "301" -- allowing e.g., most 8 GiB machines to
grow to 32 GiB and have all hotplugged memory in ZONE_MOVABLE. The
additional percent accounts for a handful of lost present pages (e.g.,
firmware allocations). User space is expected to adjust this ratio when
enabling the new "auto-movable" policy, though.
* memory_hotplug.auto_movable_numa_aware considers numa node stats in
addition to global stats, and defaults to "true".
Note: just like the old policy, the new policy won't take things like
unmovable huge pages or memory ballooning that doesn't support balloon
compaction into account. User space has to configure onlining
accordingly.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: "auto-movable" online policy and memory groups", v3.
I. Goal
The goal of this series is improving in-kernel auto-online support. It
tackles the fundamental problems that:
1) We can create zone imbalances when onlining all memory blindly to
ZONE_MOVABLE, in the worst case crashing the system. We have to know
upfront how much memory we are going to hotplug such that we can
safely enable auto-onlining of all hotplugged memory to ZONE_MOVABLE
via "online_movable". This is far from practical and only applicable in
limited setups -- like inside VMs under the RHV/oVirt hypervisor which
will never hotplug more than 3 times the boot memory (and the
limitation is only in place due to the Linux limitation).
2) We see more setups that implement dynamic VM resizing, hot(un)plugging
memory to resize VM memory. In these setups, we might hotplug a lot of
memory, but it might happen in various small steps in both directions
(e.g., 2 GiB -> 8 GiB -> 4 GiB -> 16 GiB ...). virtio-mem is the
primary driver of this upstream right now, performing such dynamic
resizing NUMA-aware via multiple virtio-mem devices.
Onlining all hotplugged memory to ZONE_NORMAL means we basically have
no hotunplug guarantees. Onlining all to ZONE_MOVABLE means we can
easily run into zone imbalances when growing a VM. We want a mixture,
and we want as much memory as reasonable/configured in ZONE_MOVABLE.
Details regarding zone imbalances can be found at [1].
3) Memory devices consist of 1..X memory block devices, however, the
kernel doesn't really track the relationship. Consequently, also user
space has no idea. We want to make per-device decisions.
As one example, for memory hotunplug it doesn't make sense to use a
mixture of zones within a single DIMM: we want all MOVABLE if
possible, otherwise all !MOVABLE, because any !MOVABLE part will easily
block the whole DIMM from getting hotunplugged.
As another example, virtio-mem operates on individual units that span
1..X memory blocks. Similar to a DIMM, we want a unit to either be all
MOVABLE or !MOVABLE. A "unit" can be thought of like a DIMM, however,
all units of a virtio-mem device logically belong together and are
managed (added/removed) by a single driver. We want as much memory of
a virtio-mem device to be MOVABLE as possible.
4) We want memory onlining to be done right from the kernel while adding
memory, not triggered by user space via udev rules; for example, this
is reqired for fast memory hotplug for drivers that add individual
memory blocks, like virito-mem. We want a way to configure a policy in
the kernel and avoid implementing advanced policies in user space.
The auto-onlining support we have in the kernel is not sufficient. All we
have is a) online everything MOVABLE (online_movable) b) online everything
!MOVABLE (online_kernel) c) keep zones contiguous (online). This series
allows configuring c) to mean instead "online movable if possible
according to the coniguration, driven by a maximum MOVABLE:KERNEL ratio"
-- a new onlining policy.
II. Approach
This series does 3 things:
1) Introduces the "auto-movable" online policy that initially operates on
individual memory blocks only. It uses a maximum MOVABLE:KERNEL ratio
to make a decision whether a memory block will be onlined to
ZONE_MOVABLE or not. However, in the basic form, hotplugged KERNEL
memory does not allow for more MOVABLE memory (details in the
patches). CMA memory is treated like MOVABLE memory.
2) Introduces static (e.g., DIMM) and dynamic (e.g., virtio-mem) memory
groups and uses group information to make decisions in the
"auto-movable" online policy across memory blocks of a single memory
device (modeled as memory group). More details can be found in patch
#3 or in the DIMM example below.
3) Maximizes ZONE_MOVABLE memory within dynamic memory groups, by
allowing ZONE_NORMAL memory within a dynamic memory group to allow for
more ZONE_MOVABLE memory within the same memory group. The target use
case is dynamic VM resizing using virtio-mem. See the virtio-mem
example below.
I remember that the basic idea of using a ratio to implement a policy in
the kernel was once mentioned by Vitaly Kuznetsov, but I might be wrong (I
lost the pointer to that discussion).
For me, the main use case is using it along with virtio-mem (and DIMMs /
ppc64 dlpar where necessary) for dynamic resizing of VMs, increasing the
amount of memory we can hotunplug reliably again if we might eventually
hotplug a lot of memory to a VM.
III. Target Usage
The target usage will be:
1) Linux boots with "mhp_default_online_type=offline"
2) User space (e.g., systemd unit) configures memory onlining (according
to a config file and system properties), for example:
* Setting memory_hotplug.online_policy=auto-movable
* Setting memory_hotplug.auto_movable_ratio=301
* Setting memory_hotplug.auto_movable_numa_aware=true
3) User space enabled auto onlining via "echo online >
/sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks"
4) User space triggers manual onlining of all already-offline memory
blocks (go over offline memory blocks and set them to "online")
IV. Example
For DIMMs, hotplugging 4 GiB DIMMs to a 4 GiB VM with a configured ratio of
301% results in the following layout:
Memory block 0-15: DMA32 (early)
Memory block 32-47: Normal (early)
Memory block 48-79: Movable (DIMM 0)
Memory block 80-111: Movable (DIMM 1)
Memory block 112-143: Movable (DIMM 2)
Memory block 144-275: Normal (DIMM 3)
Memory block 176-207: Normal (DIMM 4)
... all Normal
(-> hotplugged Normal memory does not allow for more Movable memory)
For virtio-mem, using a simple, single virtio-mem device with a 4 GiB VM
will result in the following layout:
Memory block 0-15: DMA32 (early)
Memory block 32-47: Normal (early)
Memory block 48-143: Movable (virtio-mem, first 12 GiB)
Memory block 144: Normal (virtio-mem, next 128 MiB)
Memory block 145-147: Movable (virtio-mem, next 384 MiB)
Memory block 148: Normal (virtio-mem, next 128 MiB)
Memory block 149-151: Movable (virtio-mem, next 384 MiB)
... Normal/Movable mixture as above
(-> hotplugged Normal memory allows for more Movable memory within
the same device)
Which gives us maximum flexibility when dynamically growing/shrinking a
VM in smaller steps.
V. Doc Update
I'll update the memory-hotplug.rst documentation, once the overhaul [1] is
usptream. Until then, details can be found in patch #2.
VI. Future Work
1) Use memory groups for ppc64 dlpar
2) Being able to specify a portion of (early) kernel memory that will be
excluded from the ratio. Like "128 MiB globally/per node" are excluded.
This might be helpful when starting VMs with extremely small memory
footprint (e.g., 128 MiB) and hotplugging memory later -- not wanting
the first hotplugged units getting onlined to ZONE_MOVABLE. One
alternative would be a trigger to not consider ZONE_DMA memory
in the ratio. We'll have to see if this is really rrequired.
3) Indicate to user space that MOVABLE might be a bad idea -- especially
relevant when memory ballooning without support for balloon compaction
is active.
This patch (of 9):
For implementing a new memory onlining policy, which determines when to
online memory blocks to ZONE_MOVABLE semi-automatically, we need the
number of present early (boot) pages -- present pages excluding hotplugged
pages. Let's track these pages per zone.
Pass a page instead of the zone to adjust_present_page_count(), similar as
adjust_managed_page_count() and derive the zone from the page.
It's worth noting that a memory block to be offlined/onlined is either
completely "early" or "not early". add_memory() and friends can only add
complete memory blocks and we only online/offline complete (individual)
memory blocks.

There is only a single user remaining. We can simply lookup the nid only
used for node offlining purposes when walking our memory blocks. We don't
expect to remove multi-nid ranges; and if we'd ever do, we most probably
don't care about removing multi-nid ranges that actually result in empty
nodes.
If ever required, we can detect the "multi-nid" scenario and simply try
offlining all online nodes.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: preparatory patches for new online policy and memory"
These are all cleanups and one fix previously sent as part of [1]:
[PATCH v1 00/12] mm/memory_hotplug: "auto-movable" online policy and memory
groups.
These patches make sense even without the other series, therefore I pulled
them out to make the other series easier to digest.
[1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210607195430.48228-1-david@redhat.com
This patch (of 4):
Checkpatch complained on a follow-up patch that we are using "unsigned"
here, which defaults to "unsigned int" and checkpatch is correct.
As we will search for a fitting zone using the wrong pfn, we might end
up onlining memory to one of the special kernel zones, such as ZONE_DMA,
which can end badly as the onlined memory does not satisfy properties of
these zones.
Use "unsigned long" instead, just as we do in other places when handling
PFNs. This can bite us once we have physical addresses in the range of
multiple TB.

Patch series "mm: remove pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE".
After recent updates to freeing unused parts of the memory map, no
architecture can have holes in the memory map within a pageblock. This
makes pfn_valid_within() check and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE configuration
option redundant.
The first patch removes them both in a mechanical way and the second patch
simplifies memory_hotplug::test_pages_in_a_zone() that had
pfn_valid_within() surrounded by more logic than simple if.
This patch (of 2):
After recent changes in freeing of the unused parts of the memory map and
rework of pfn_valid() in arm and arm64 there are no architectures that can
have holes in the memory map within a pageblock and so nothing can enable
CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE which guards non trivial implementation of
pfn_valid_within().
With that, pfn_valid_within() is always hardwired to 1 and can be
completely removed.
Remove calls to pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE.

Under normal circumstances, migrate_pages() returns the number of pages
migrated. In error conditions, it returns an error code. When returning
an error code, there is no way to know how many pages were migrated or not
migrated.
Make migrate_pages() return how many pages are demoted successfully for
all cases, including when encountering errors. Page reclaim behavior will
depend on this in subsequent patches.

Currently, memory-hotplug code takes zone's span_writelock and pgdat's
resize_lock when resizing the node/zone's spanned pages via
{move_pfn_range_to_zone(),remove_pfn_range_from_zone()} and when resizing
node and zone's present pages via adjust_present_page_count().
These locks are also taken during the initialization of the system at boot
time, where it protects parallel struct page initialization, but they
should not really be needed in memory-hotplug where all operations are a)
synchronized on device level and b) serialized by the mem_hotplug_lock
lock.

When offlining memory the system can attempt to migrate a lot of pages, if
there are problems with migration this can flood the logs. Printing all
the data hogs the CPU and cause some RT threads to run for a long time,
which may have some bad consequences.
Rate limit the page migration warnings in order to avoid this.

Patch series "Free some vmemmap pages of HugeTLB page", v23.
This patch series will free some vmemmap pages(struct page structures)
associated with each HugeTLB page when preallocated to save memory.
In order to reduce the difficulty of the first version of code review. In
this version, we disable PMD/huge page mapping of vmemmap if this feature
was enabled. This acutely eliminates a bunch of the complex code doing
page table manipulation. When this patch series is solid, we cam add the
code of vmemmap page table manipulation in the future.
The struct page structures (page structs) are used to describe a physical
page frame. By default, there is an one-to-one mapping from a page frame
to it's corresponding page struct.
The HugeTLB pages consist of multiple base page size pages and is
supported by many architectures. See hugetlbpage.rst in the Documentation
directory for more details. On the x86 architecture, HugeTLB pages of
size 2MB and 1GB are currently supported. Since the base page size on x86
is 4KB, a 2MB HugeTLB page consists of 512 base pages and a 1GB HugeTLB
page consists of 4096 base pages. For each base page, there is a
corresponding page struct.
Within the HugeTLB subsystem, only the first 4 page structs are used to
contain unique information about a HugeTLB page. HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER
provides this upper limit. The only 'useful' information in the remaining
page structs is the compound_head field, and this field is the same for
all tail pages.
By removing redundant page structs for HugeTLB pages, memory can returned
to the buddy allocator for other uses.
When the system boot up, every 2M HugeTLB has 512 struct page structs which
size is 8 pages(sizeof(struct page) * 512 / PAGE_SIZE).
HugeTLB struct pages(8 pages) page frame(8 pages)
+-----------+ ---virt_to_page---> +-----------+ mapping to +-----------+

The value of page->compound_head is the same for all tail pages. The
first page of page structs (page 0) associated with the HugeTLB page
contains the 4 page structs necessary to describe the HugeTLB. The only
use of the remaining pages of page structs (page 1 to page 7) is to point
to page->compound_head. Therefore, we can remap pages 2 to 7 to page 1.
Only 2 pages of page structs will be used for each HugeTLB page. This
will allow us to free the remaining 6 pages to the buddy allocator.
Here is how things look after remapping.

When a HugeTLB is freed to the buddy system, we should allocate 6 pages
for vmemmap pages and restore the previous mapping relationship.
Apart from 2MB HugeTLB page, we also have 1GB HugeTLB page. It is similar
to the 2MB HugeTLB page. We also can use this approach to free the
vmemmap pages.
In this case, for the 1GB HugeTLB page, we can save 4094 pages. This is a
very substantial gain. On our server, run some SPDK/QEMU applications
which will use 1024GB HugeTLB page. With this feature enabled, we can
save ~16GB (1G hugepage)/~12GB (2MB hugepage) memory.
Because there are vmemmap page tables reconstruction on the
freeing/allocating path, it increases some overhead. Here are some
overhead analysis.
1) Allocating 10240 2MB HugeTLB pages.
a) With this patch series applied:

Summary: The overhead of __free_hugepage is about ~2-3x slower than before.
Although the overhead has increased, the overhead is not significant.
Like Mike said, "However, remember that the majority of use cases create
HugeTLB pages at or shortly after boot time and add them to the pool. So,
additional overhead is at pool creation time. There is no change to
'normal run time' operations of getting a page from or returning a page to
the pool (think page fault/unmap)".
Despite the overhead and in addition to the memory gains from this series.
The following data is obtained by Joao Martins. Very thanks to his
effort.
There's an additional benefit which is page (un)pinners will see an improvement
and Joao presumes because there are fewer memmap pages and thus the tail/head
pages are staying in cache more often.
Out of the box Joao saw (when comparing linux-next against linux-next +
this series) with gup_test and pinning a 16G HugeTLB file (with 1G pages):
get_user_pages(): ~32k -> ~9k
unpin_user_pages(): ~75k -> ~70k
Usually any tight loop fetching compound_head(), or reading tail pages
data (e.g. compound_head) benefit a lot. There's some unpinning
inefficiencies Joao was fixing[2], but with that in added it shows even
more:
unpin_user_pages(): ~27k -> ~3.8k

This patch (of 9):
Move bootmem info registration common API to individual bootmem_info.c.
And we will use {get,put}_page_bootmem() to initialize the page for the
vmemmap pages or free the vmemmap pages to buddy in the later patch. So
move them out of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_SPARSE. This is just code movement
without any functional change.

The pcp high watermark is based on the batch size but there is no
relationship between them other than it is convenient to use early in
boot.
This patch takes the first step and bases pcp->high on the zone low
watermark split across the number of CPUs local to a zone while the batch
size remains the same to avoid increasing allocation latencies. The
intent behind the default pcp->high is "set the number of PCP pages such
that if they are all full that background reclaim is not started
prematurely".
Note that in this patch the pcp->high values are adjusted after memory
hotplug events, min_free_kbytes adjustments and watermark scale factor
adjustments but not CPU hotplug events which is handled later in the
series.
On a test KVM instance;
Before grep -E "high:|batch" /proc/zoneinfo | tail -2
high: 378
batch: 63
After grep -E "high:|batch" /proc/zoneinfo | tail -2
high: 649

Self stored memmap leads to a sparse memory situation which is
unsuitable for workloads that requires large contiguous memory chunks,
so make this an opt-in which needs to be explicitly enabled.
To control this, let memory_hotplug have its own memory space, as
suggested by David, so we can add memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory
parameter.

Physical memory hotadd has to allocate a memmap (struct page array) for
the newly added memory section. Currently, alloc_pages_node() is used
for those allocations.
This has some disadvantages:
a) an existing memory is consumed for that purpose
(eg: ~2MB per 128MB memory section on x86_64)
This can even lead to extreme cases where system goes OOM because
the physically hotplugged memory depletes the available memory before
it is onlined.
b) if the whole node is movable then we have off-node struct pages
which has performance drawbacks.
c) It might be there are no PMD_ALIGNED chunks so memmap array gets
populated with base pages.
This can be improved when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is enabled.
Vmemap page tables can map arbitrary memory. That means that we can
reserve a part of the physically hotadded memory to back vmemmap page
tables. This implementation uses the beginning of the hotplugged memory
for that purpose.
There are some non-obviously things to consider though.
Vmemmap pages are allocated/freed during the memory hotplug events
(add_memory_resource(), try_remove_memory()) when the memory is
added/removed. This means that the reserved physical range is not
online although it is used. The most obvious side effect is that
pfn_to_online_page() returns NULL for those pfns. The current design
expects that this should be OK as the hotplugged memory is considered a
garbage until it is onlined. For example hibernation wouldn't save the
content of those vmmemmaps into the image so it wouldn't be restored on
resume but this should be OK as there no real content to recover anyway
while metadata is reachable from other data structures (e.g. vmemmap
page tables).
The reserved space is therefore (de)initialized during the {on,off}line
events (mhp_{de}init_memmap_on_memory). That is done by extracting page
allocator independent initialization from the regular onlining path.
The primary reason to handle the reserved space outside of
{on,off}line_pages is to make each initialization specific to the
purpose rather than special case them in a single function.
As per above, the functions that are introduced are:
- mhp_init_memmap_on_memory:
Initializes vmemmap pages by calling move_pfn_range_to_zone(), calls
kasan_add_zero_shadow(), and onlines as many sections as vmemmap pages
fully span.
- mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory:
Offlines as many sections as vmemmap pages fully span, removes the
range from zhe zone by remove_pfn_range_from_zone(), and calls
kasan_remove_zero_shadow() for the range.
The new function memory_block_online() calls mhp_init_memmap_on_memory()
before doing the actual online_pages(). Should online_pages() fail, we
clean up by calling mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory(). Adjusting of
present_pages is done at the end once we know that online_pages()
succedeed.
On offline, memory_block_offline() needs to unaccount vmemmap pages from
present_pages() before calling offline_pages(). This is necessary because
offline_pages() tears down some structures based on the fact whether the
node or the zone become empty. If offline_pages() fails, we account back
vmemmap pages. If it succeeds, we call mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory().
Hot-remove:
We need to be careful when removing memory, as adding and
removing memory needs to be done with the same granularity.
To check that this assumption is not violated, we check the
memory range we want to remove and if a) any memory block has
vmemmap pages and b) the range spans more than a single memory
block, we scream out loud and refuse to proceed.
If all is good and the range was using memmap on memory (aka vmemmap pages),
we construct an altmap structure so free_hugepage_table does the right
thing and calls vmem_altmap_free instead of free_pagetable.

LRU pagevec holds refcount of pages until the pagevec are drained. It
could prevent migration since the refcount of the page is greater than
the expection in migration logic. To mitigate the issue, callers of
migrate_pages drains LRU pagevec via migrate_prep or lru_add_drain_all
before migrate_pages call.
However, it's not enough because pages coming into pagevec after the
draining call still could stay at the pagevec so it could keep
preventing page migration. Since some callers of migrate_pages have
retrial logic with LRU draining, the page would migrate at next trail
but it is still fragile in that it doesn't close the fundamental race
between upcoming LRU pages into pagvec and migration so the migration
failure could cause contiguous memory allocation failure in the end.
To close the race, this patch disables lru caches(i.e, pagevec) during
ongoing migration until migrate is done.
Since it's really hard to reproduce, I measured how many times
migrate_pages retried with force mode(it is about a fallback to a sync
migration) with below debug code.
int migrate_pages(struct list_head *from, new_page_t get_new_page,

background every five seconds. Total cma allocation count was about 500
during the testing. With this patch, the dump_page count was reduced
from 400 to 30.
The new interface is also useful for memory hotplug which currently
drains lru pcp caches after each migration failure. This is rather
suboptimal as it has to disrupt others running during the operation.
With the new interface the operation happens only once. This is also in
line with pcp allocator cache which are disabled for the offlining as
well.

In a system supporting MTE, the linear map must allow reading/writing
allocation tags by setting the memory type as Normal Tagged. Currently,
this is only handled for memory present at boot. Hotplugged memory uses
Normal non-Tagged memory.
Introduce pgprot_mhp() for hotplugged memory and use it in
add_memory_resource(). The arm64 code maps pgprot_mhp() to
pgprot_tagged().
Note that ZONE_DEVICE memory should not be mapped as Tagged and
therefore setting the memory type in arch_add_memory() is not feasible.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: Pre-validate the address range with platform", v5.
This series adds a mechanism allowing platforms to weigh in and
prevalidate incoming address range before proceeding further with the
memory hotplug. This helps prevent potential platform errors for the
given address range, down the hotplug call chain, which inevitably fails
the hotplug itself.
This mechanism was suggested by David Hildenbrand during another
discussion with respect to a memory hotplug fix on arm64 platform.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/1600332402-30123-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com/
This mechanism focuses on the addressibility aspect and not [sub] section
alignment aspect. Hence check_hotplug_memory_range() and check_pfn_span()
have been left unchanged.
This patch (of 4):
This introduces mhp_range_allowed() which can be called in various memory
hotplug paths to prevalidate the address range which is being added, with
the platform. Then mhp_range_allowed() calls mhp_get_pluggable_range()
which provides applicable address range depending on whether linear
mapping is required or not. For ranges that require linear mapping, it
calls a new arch callback arch_get_mappable_range() which the platform can
override. So the new callback, in turn provides the platform an
opportunity to configure acceptable memory hotplug address ranges in case
there are constraints.
This mechanism will help prevent platform specific errors deep down during
hotplug calls. This drops now redundant
check_hotplug_memory_addressable() check in __add_pages() but instead adds
a VM_BUG_ON() check which would ensure that the range has been validated
with mhp_range_allowed() earlier in the call chain. Besides
mhp_get_pluggable_range() also can be used by potential memory hotplug
callers to avail the allowed physical range which would go through on a
given platform.
This does not really add any new range check in generic memory hotplug but
instead compensates for lost checks in arch_add_memory() where applicable
and check_hotplug_memory_addressable(), with unified mhp_range_allowed().

While pfn_to_online_page() is able to determine pfn_valid() at subsection
granularity it is not able to reliably determine if a given pfn is also
online if the section is mixes ZONE_{NORMAL,MOVABLE} with ZONE_DEVICE.
This means that pfn_to_online_page() may return invalid @page objects.
For example with a memory map like:
100000000-1fbffffff : System RAM
142000000-143002e16 : Kernel code
143200000-143713fff : Kernel rodata
143800000-143b15b7f : Kernel data
144227000-144ffffff : Kernel bss
1fc000000-2fbffffff : Persistent Memory (legacy)
1fc000000-2fbffffff : namespace0.0
This command:
echo 0x1fc000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page
...succeeds when it should fail. When it succeeds it touches an
uninitialized page and may crash or cause other damage (see
dissolve_free_huge_page()).
While the memory map above is contrived via the memmap=ss!nn kernel
command line option, the collision happens in practice on shipping
platforms. The memory controller resources that decode spans of physical
address space are a limited resource. One technique platform-firmware
uses to conserve those resources is to share a decoder across 2 devices to
keep the address range contiguous. Unfortunately the unit of operation of
a decoder is 64MiB while the Linux section size is 128MiB. This results
in situations where, without subsection hotplug memory mappings with
different lifetimes collide into one object that can only express one
lifetime.
Update move_pfn_range_to_zone() to flag (SECTION_TAINT_ZONE_DEVICE) a
section that mixes ZONE_DEVICE pfns with other online pfns. With
SECTION_TAINT_ZONE_DEVICE to delineate, pfn_to_online_page() can fall back
to a slow-path check for ZONE_DEVICE pfns in an online section. In the
fast path online_section() for a full ZONE_DEVICE section returns false.
Because the collision case is rare, and for simplicity, the
SECTION_TAINT_ZONE_DEVICE flag is never cleared once set.

pfn_to_online_page is primarily used to filter out offline or fully
uninitialized pages. pfn_valid resp. online_section_nr have a coarse
per memory section granularity. If a section shared with a partially
offline memory (e.g. part of ZONE_DEVICE) then pfn_to_online_page
would lead to a false positive on some pfns. Fix this by adding
pfn_section_valid check which is subsection aware.

Patch series "mm: Fix pfn_to_online_page() with respect to ZONE_DEVICE", v4.
A pfn-walker that uses pfn_to_online_page() may inadvertently translate a
pfn as online and in the page allocator, when it is offline managed by a
ZONE_DEVICE mapping (details in Patch 3: ("mm: Teach pfn_to_online_page()
about ZONE_DEVICE section collisions")).
The 2 proposals under consideration are teach pfn_to_online_page() to be
precise in the presence of mixed-zone sections, or teach the memory-add
code to drop the System RAM associated with ZONE_DEVICE collisions. In
order to not regress memory capacity by a few 10s to 100s of MiB the
approach taken in this set is to add precision to pfn_to_online_page().
In the course of validating pfn_to_online_page() a couple other fixes
fell out:
1/ soft_offline_page() fails to drop the reference taken in the
madvise(..., MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE) case.
2/ memory_failure() uses get_dev_pagemap() to lookup ZONE_DEVICE pages,
however that mapping may contain data pages and metadata raw pfns.
Introduce pgmap_pfn_valid() to delineate the 2 types and fail the
handling of raw metadata pfns.
This patch (of 4);
pfn_to_online_page() is already too large to be a macro or an inline
function. In anticipation of further logic changes / growth, move it out
of line.
No functional change, just code movement.

Use the new hugetlb page specific flag HPageMigratable to replace the
page_huge_active interfaces. By it's name, page_huge_active implied that
a huge page was on the active list. However, that is not really what code
checking the flag wanted to know. It really wanted to determine if the
huge page could be migrated. This happens when the page is actually added
to the page cache and/or task page table. This is the reasoning behind
the name change.
The VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() calls in the *_huge_active() interfaces are not
really necessary as we KNOW the page is a hugetlb page. Therefore, they
are removed.
The routine page_huge_active checked for PageHeadHuge before testing the
active bit. This is unnecessary in the case where we hold a reference or
lock and know it is a hugetlb head page. page_huge_active is also called
without holding a reference or lock (scan_movable_pages), and can race
with code freeing the page. The extra check in page_huge_active shortened
the race window, but did not prevent the race. Offline code calling
scan_movable_pages already deals with these races, so removing the check
is acceptable. Add comment to racy code.

VMware observed a performance regression during memmap init on their
platform, and bisected to commit 73a6e474cb ("mm: memmap_init:
iterate over memblock regions rather that check each PFN") causing it.
Before the commit:
[0.033176] Normal zone: 1445888 pages used for memmap
[0.033176] Normal zone: 89391104 pages, LIFO batch:63
[0.035851] ACPI: PM-Timer IO Port: 0x448
With commit
[0.026874] Normal zone: 1445888 pages used for memmap
[0.026875] Normal zone: 89391104 pages, LIFO batch:63
[2.028450] ACPI: PM-Timer IO Port: 0x448
The root cause is the current memmap defer init doesn't work as expected.
Before, memmap_init_zone() was used to do memmap init of one whole zone,
to initialize all low zones of one numa node, but defer memmap init of
the last zone in that numa node. However, since commit 73a6e474cb,
function memmap_init() is adapted to iterater over memblock regions
inside one zone, then call memmap_init_zone() to do memmap init for each
region.
E.g, on VMware's system, the memory layout is as below, there are two
memory regions in node 2. The current code will mistakenly initialize the
whole 1st region [mem 0xab00000000-0xfcffffffff], then do memmap defer to
iniatialize only one memmory section on the 2nd region [mem
0x10000000000-0x1033fffffff]. In fact, we only expect to see that there's
only one memory section's memmap initialized. That's why more time is
costed at the time.
[ 0.008842] ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00000000-0x0009ffff]
[ 0.008842] ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00100000-0xbfffffff]
[ 0.008843] ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x100000000-0x55ffffffff]
[ 0.008844] ACPI: SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 [mem 0x5600000000-0xaaffffffff]
[ 0.008844] ACPI: SRAT: Node 2 PXM 2 [mem 0xab00000000-0xfcffffffff]
[ 0.008845] ACPI: SRAT: Node 2 PXM 2 [mem 0x10000000000-0x1033fffffff]
Now, let's add a parameter 'zone_end_pfn' to memmap_init_zone() to pass
down the real zone end pfn so that defer_init() can use it to judge
whether defer need be taken in zone wide.
