<title>mm: fix phys_to_target_node() and memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() exports</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a927bd6ba952d13c52b8b385030943032f659a3e</id>
<content type='text'>
The core-mm has a default __weak implementation of phys_to_target_node()
to mirror the weak definition of memory_add_physaddr_to_nid().  That
symbol is exported for modules.  However, while the export in
mm/memory_hotplug.c exported the symbol in the configuration cases of:

	CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO=y
	CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y

...and:

	CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO=n
	CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y

...it failed to export the symbol in the case of:

	CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO=y
	CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n

Not only is that broken, but Christoph points out that the kernel should
not be exporting any __weak symbol, which means that
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() example that phys_to_target_node() copied
is broken too.

Rework the definition of phys_to_target_node() and
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() to not require weak symbols.  Move to the
common arch override design-pattern of an asm header defining a symbol
to replace the default implementation.

The only common header that all memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() producing
architectures implement is asm/sparsemem.h.  In fact, powerpc already
defines its memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() helper in sparsemem.h.
Double-down on that observation and define phys_to_target_node() where
necessary in asm/sparsemem.h.  An alternate consideration that was
discarded was to put this override in asm/numa.h, but that entangles
with the definition of MAX_NUMNODES relative to the inclusion of
linux/nodemask.h, and requires powerpc to grow a new header.

The dependency on NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO for DEV_DAX_HMEM_DEVICES is invalid
now that the symbol is properly exported / stubbed in all combinations
of CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO and CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG.

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: remove a wrapper for alloc_migration_target()</title>

<content type='text'>
To calculate the correct node to migrate the page for hotplug, we need to
check node id of the page.  Wrapper for alloc_migration_target() exists
for this purpose.

However, Vlastimil informs that all migration source pages come from a
single node.  In this case, we don't need to check the node id for each
page and we don't need to re-set the target nodemask for each page by
using the wrapper.  Set up the migration_target_control once and use it
for all pages.

As we no longer shuffle via generic_online_page() and when undoing
isolation, we can simplify the comment.

We now effectively shuffle only once (properly) when onlining new memory.

<title>mm: don't panic when links can't be created in sysfs</title>

<content type='text'>
At boot time, or when doing memory hot-add operations, if the links in
sysfs can't be created, the system is still able to run, so just report
the error in the kernel log rather than BUG_ON and potentially make system
unusable because the callpath can be called with locks held.

Since the number of memory blocks managed could be high, the messages are
rate limited.

As a consequence, link_mem_sections() has no status to report anymore.

"mem" in the name already indicates the root, similar to
release_mem_region() and devm_request_mem_region().  Make it implicit.
The only single caller always passes iomem_resource, other parents are not
applicable.

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: MEMHP_MERGE_RESOURCE to specify merging of System RAM resources</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9ca6551ee24368a4d2b09566ea4d10fe87860379</id>
<content type='text'>
Some add_memory*() users add memory in small, contiguous memory blocks.
Examples include virtio-mem, hyper-v balloon, and the XEN balloon.

This can quickly result in a lot of memory resources, whereby the actual
resource boundaries are not of interest (e.g., it might be relevant for
DIMMs, exposed via /proc/iomem to user space).  We really want to merge
added resources in this scenario where possible.

Let's provide a flag (MEMHP_MERGE_RESOURCE) to specify that a resource
either created within add_memory*() or passed via add_memory_resource()
shall be marked mergeable and merged with applicable siblings.

To implement that, we need a kernel/resource interface to mark selected
System RAM resources mergeable (IORESOURCE_SYSRAM_MERGEABLE) and trigger
merging.

Note: We really want to merge after the whole operation succeeded, not
directly when adding a resource to the resource tree (it would break
add_memory_resource() and require splitting resources again when the
operation failed - e.g., due to -ENOMEM).

<content type='text'>
IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED currently uses an unused PnP bit, which is
always set to 0 by hardware.  This is far from beautiful (and confusing),
and the bit only applies to SYSRAM.  So let's move it out of the
bus-specific (PnP) defined bits.

We'll add another SYSRAM specific bit soon.  If we ever need more bits for
other purposes, we can steal some from "desc", or reshuffle/regroup what
we have.

Patch series "selective merging of system ram resources", v4.

Some add_memory*() users add memory in small, contiguous memory blocks.
Examples include virtio-mem, hyper-v balloon, and the XEN balloon.

This can quickly result in a lot of memory resources, whereby the actual
resource boundaries are not of interest (e.g., it might be relevant for
DIMMs, exposed via /proc/iomem to user space).  We really want to merge
added resources in this scenario where possible.

Resources are effectively stored in a list-based tree.  Having a lot of
resources not only wastes memory, it also makes traversing that tree more
expensive, and makes /proc/iomem explode in size (e.g., requiring
kexec-tools to manually merge resources when creating a kdump header.  The
current kexec-tools resource count limit does not allow for more than
~100GB of memory with a memory block size of 128MB on x86-64).

Let's allow to selectively merge system ram resources by specifying a new
flag for add_memory*().  Patch #5 contains a /proc/iomem example.  Only
tested with virtio-mem.

This patch (of 8):

Let's make sure splitting a resource on memory hotunplug will never fail.
This will become more relevant once we merge selected System RAM resources
- then, we'll trigger that case more often on memory hotunplug.

In general, this function is already unlikely to fail.  When we remove
memory, we free up quite a lot of metadata (memmap, page tables, memory
block device, etc.).  The only reason it could really fail would be when
injecting allocation errors.

All other error cases inside release_mem_region_adjustable() seem to be
sanity checks if the function would be abused in different context - let's
add WARN_ON_ONCE() in these cases so we can catch them.

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: mark pageblocks MIGRATE_ISOLATE while onlining memory</title>

Currently, it can happen that pages are allocated (and freed) via the
buddy before we finished basic memory onlining.

For example, pages are exposed to the buddy and can be allocated before we
actually mark the sections online.  Allocated pages could suddenly fail
pfn_to_online_page() checks.  We had similar issues with pcp handling,
when pages are allocated+freed before we reach zone_pcp_update() in
online_pages() [1].

Instead, mark all pageblocks MIGRATE_ISOLATE, such that allocations are
impossible.  Once done with the heavy lifting, use
undo_isolate_page_range() to move the pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE
freelist, marking them ready for allocation.  Similar to offline_pages(),
we have to manually adjust zone-&gt;nr_isolate_pageblock.
