memory_hotplug: add missing newlines to debugging output

2018-12-28T20:11:51Z

pages_correctly_probed is missing new lines which means that the line is not printed rightaway but it rather waits for additional printks. Add \n to all three messages in pages_correctly_probed.

drivers/base/memory.c: remove an unnecessary check on NR_MEM_SECTIONS

2018-12-28T20:11:48Z

In cb5e39b8038b ("drivers: base: refactor add_memory_section() to add_memory_block()"), add_memory_block() is introduced, which is only invoked in memory_dev_init(). When combining these two loops in memory_dev_init() and add_memory_block(), they looks like this: for (i = 0; i < NR_MEM_SECTIONS; i += sections_per_block) for (j = i; (j < i + sections_per_block) && j < NR_MEM_SECTIONS; j++) Since it is sure the (i < NR_MEM_SECTIONS) and j sits in its own memory block, the check of (j < NR_MEM_SECTIONS) is not necessary. This patch just removes this check.

drivers/base/memory.c: Use DEVICE_ATTR_RO and friends

2018-12-06T12:54:14Z

Let's use the easier to read (and not mess up) variants: - Use DEVICE_ATTR_RO - Use DEVICE_ATTR_WO - Use DEVICE_ATTR_RW instead of the more generic DEVICE_ATTR() we're using right now. We have to rename most callback functions. By fixing the intendations we can even save some LOCs. Cc: "Rafael J.

mm/memory_hotplug: fix online/offline_pages called w.o. mem_hotplug_lock

2018-10-31T15:54:17Z

There seem to be some problems as result of 30467e0b3be ("mm, hotplug: fix concurrent memory hot-add deadlock"), which tried to fix a possible lock inversion reported and discussed in [1] due to the two locks a) device_lock() b) mem_hotplug_lock While add_memory() first takes b), followed by a) during bus_probe_device(), onlining of memory from user space first took a), followed by b), exposing a possible deadlock. In [1], and it was decided to not make use of device_hotplug_lock, but rather to enforce a locking order. The problems I spotted related to this: 1. Memory block device attributes: While .state first calls mem_hotplug_begin() and the calls device_online() - which takes device_lock() - .online does no longer call mem_hotplug_begin(), so effectively calls online_pages() without mem_hotplug_lock. 2. device_online() should be called under device_hotplug_lock, however onlining memory during add_memory() does not take care of that. In addition, I think there is also something wrong about the locking in 3. arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/memtrace.c calls offline_pages() without locks. This was introduced after 30467e0b3be. And skimming over the code, I assume it could need some more care in regards to locking (e.g. device_online() called without device_hotplug_lock. This will be addressed in the following patches. Now that we hold the device_hotplug_lock when - adding memory (e.g. via add_memory()/add_memory_resource()) - removing memory (e.g. via remove_memory()) - device_online()/device_offline() We can move mem_hotplug_lock usage back into online_pages()/offline_pages(). Why is mem_hotplug_lock still needed? Essentially to make get_online_mems()/put_online_mems() be very fast (relying on device_hotplug_lock would be very slow), and to serialize against addition of memory that does not create memory block devices (hmm). [1] http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/pipermail/ driverdev-devel/ 2015-February/065324.html This patch is partly based on a patch by Vitaly Kuznetsov.

mm/memory_hotplug: make add_memory() take the device_hotplug_lock

2018-10-31T15:54:17Z

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).

memory_hotplug: fix kernel_panic on offline page processing

2018-09-04T23:45:02Z

Within show_valid_zones() the function test_pages_in_a_zone() should be called for online memory blocks only. Otherwise it might lead to the VM_BUG_ON due to uninitialized struct pages (when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGFLAGS kernel option is set): page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PagePoisoned(p)) ------------[ cut here ]------------ Call Trace: ([<000000000038f91e>] test_pages_in_a_zone+0xe6/0x168) [<0000000000923472>] show_valid_zones+0x5a/0x1a8 [<0000000000900284>] dev_attr_show+0x3c/0x78 [<000000000046f6f0>] sysfs_kf_seq_show+0xd0/0x150 [<00000000003ef662>] seq_read+0x212/0x4b8 [<00000000003bf202>] __vfs_read+0x3a/0x178 [<00000000003bf3ca>] vfs_read+0x8a/0x148 [<00000000003bfa3a>] ksys_read+0x62/0xb8 [<0000000000bc2220>] system_call+0xdc/0x2d8 That VM_BUG_ON was triggered by the page poisoning introduced in mm/sparse.c with the git commit d0dc12e86b31 ("mm/memory_hotplug: optimize memory hotplug"). With the same commit the new 'nid' field has been added to the struct memory_block in order to store and later on derive the node id for offline pages (instead of accessing struct page which might be uninitialized). But one reference to nid in show_valid_zones() function has been overlooked. Fixed with current commit. Also, nr_pages will not be used any more after test_pages_in_a_zone() call, do not update it.

mm/memory_hotplug.c: call register_mem_sect_under_node()

2018-08-17T23:20:29Z

When hotplugging memory, it is possible that two calls are being made to register_mem_sect_under_node(). One comes from __add_section()->hotplug_memory_register() and the other from add_memory_resource()->link_mem_sections() if we had to register a new node. In case we had to register a new node, hotplug_memory_register() will only handle/allocate the memory_block's since register_mem_sect_under_node() will return right away because the node it is not online yet. I think it is better if we leave hotplug_memory_register() to handle/allocate only memory_block's and make link_mem_sections() to call register_mem_sect_under_node(). So this patch removes the call to register_mem_sect_under_node() from hotplug_memory_register(), and moves the call to link_mem_sections() out of the condition, so it will always be called. In this way we only have one place where the memory sections are registered.
