commit 18e19f195cd888f65643a77a0c6aee8f5be6439a upstream.

When we use SPARSEMEM instead of SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, pfn_to_page()
doesn't work before sparse_init_one_section() is called.

This leads to a crash when hotplug memory:

We should use memmap as it did.

On x86 the impact is limited to x86_32 builds, or x86_64 configurations
that override the default setting for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.

Other memory hotplug archs (arm64, ia64, and ppc) also default to
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=y.

<title>mm/sparse.c: reset section's mem_map when fully deactivated</title>

commit 1f503443e7df8dc8366608b4d810ce2d6669827c upstream.

After commit ba72b4c8cf60 ("mm/sparsemem: support sub-section hotplug"),
when a mem section is fully deactivated, section_mem_map still records
the section's start pfn, which is not used any more and will be
reassigned during re-addition.

In analogy with alloc/free pattern, it is better to clear all fields of
section_mem_map.

Beside this, it breaks the user space tool "makedumpfile" [1], which
makes assumption that a hot-removed section has mem_map as NULL, instead
of checking directly against SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT bit.  (makedumpfile
will be better to change the assumption, and need a patch)

The bug can be reproduced on IBM POWERVM by "drmgr -c mem -r -q 5" ,
trigger a crash, and save vmcore by makedumpfile

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: don't free usage map when removing a re-added early section</title>

commit 8068df3b60373c390198f660574ea14c8098de57 upstream.

When we remove an early section, we don't free the usage map, as the
usage maps of other sections are placed into the same page.  Once the
section is removed, it is no longer an early section (especially, the
memmap is freed).  When we re-add that section, the usage map is reused,
however, it is no longer an early section.  When removing that section
again, we try to kfree() a usage map that was allocated during early
boot - bad.

Let's check against PageReserved() to see if we are dealing with an
usage map that was allocated during boot.  We could also check against
!(PageSlab(usage_page) || PageCompound(usage_page)), but PageReserved() is
cleaner.

Can be triggered using memtrace under ppc64/powernv:

  $ mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/
  $ echo 0x20000000 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace/enable
  $ echo 0x20000000 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace/enable

The first invocation will offline+remove memory blocks.  The second
invocation will first add+online them again, in order to offline+remove
them again (usually we are lucky and the exact same memory blocks will
get "reallocated").

Tested on powernv with boot memory: The usage map will not get freed.
Tested on x86-64 with DIMMs: The usage map will get freed.

Using Dynamic Memory under a Power DLAPR can trigger it easily.

Triggering removal (I assume after previously removed+re-added) of
memory from the HMC GUI can crash the kernel with the same call trace
and is fixed by this patch.

     system_call+0x5c/0x68
   ---[ end trace 4b053cbd84e0db62 ]---

The first invocation will offline+remove memory blocks.  The second
invocation will first add+online them again, in order to offline+remove
them again (usually we are lucky and the exact same memory blocks will
get "reallocated").

Tested on powernv with boot memory: The usage map will not get freed.
Tested on x86-64 with DIMMs: The usage map will get freed.

Using Dynamic Memory under a Power DLAPR can trigger it easily.

Triggering removal (I assume after previously removed+re-added) of
memory from the HMC GUI can crash the kernel with the same call trace
and is fixed by this patch.

[ Upstream commit 030eab4f9ffb469344c10a46bc02c5149db0a2a9 ]

Building the kernel on s390 with -Og produces the following warning:

  WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x28dabe): Section mismatch in reference from the function populate_section_memmap() to the function .meminit.text:__populate_section_memmap()
  The function populate_section_memmap() references
  the function __meminit __populate_section_memmap().
  This is often because populate_section_memmap lacks a __meminit
  annotation or the annotation of __populate_section_memmap is wrong.

While -Og is not supported, in theory this might still happen with
another compiler or on another architecture.  So fix this by using the
correct section annotations.

<title>mm/sparse.c: remove NULL check in clear_hwpoisoned_pages()</title>

There is no possibility for memmap to be NULL in the current codebase.

This check was added in commit 95a4774d055c ("memory-hotplug: update
mce_bad_pages when removing the memory") where memmap was originally
inited to NULL, and only conditionally given a value.

The code that could have passed a NULL has been removed by commit
ba72b4c8cf60 ("mm/sparsemem: support sub-section hotplug"), so there is no
longer a possibility that memmap can be NULL.

__pfn_to_section is defined as __nr_to_section(pfn_to_section_nr(pfn)).

Since we already get section_nr, it is not necessary to get mem_section
from start_pfn. By doing so, we reduce one redundant operation.

The size argument passed into sparse_buffer_alloc() has already been
aligned with PAGE_SIZE or PMD_SIZE.

If the size after aligned is not power of 2 (e.g.  0x480000), the
PTR_ALIGN() will return wrong value.  Use roundup to round sparsemap_buf
up to next multiple of size.

<title>mm/sparse.c: fix memory leak of sparsemap_buf in aligned memory</title>

sparse_buffer_alloc(xsize) gets the size of memory from sparsemap_buf
after being aligned with the size.  However, the size is at least
PAGE_ALIGN(sizeof(struct page) * PAGES_PER_SECTION) and usually larger
than PAGE_SIZE.

Also, sparse_buffer_fini() only frees memory between sparsemap_buf and
sparsemap_buf_end, since sparsemap_buf may be changed by PTR_ALIGN()
first, the aligned space before sparsemap_buf is wasted and no one will
touch it.

In our ARM32 platform (without SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP)
  Sparse_buffer_init
    Reserve d359c000 - d3e9c000 (9M)
  Sparse_buffer_alloc
    Alloc   d3a00000 - d3E80000 (4.5M)
  Sparse_buffer_fini
    Free    d3e80000 - d3e9c000 (~=100k)
 The reserved memory between d359c000 - d3a00000 (~=4.4M) is unfreed.

In ARM64 platform (with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP)

  sparse_buffer_init
    Reserve ffffffc07d623000 - ffffffc07f623000 (32M)
  Sparse_buffer_alloc
    Alloc   ffffffc07d800000 - ffffffc07f600000 (30M)
  Sparse_buffer_fini
    Free    ffffffc07f600000 - ffffffc07f623000 (140K)
 The reserved memory between ffffffc07d623000 - ffffffc07d800000
 (~=1.9M) is unfreed.

Let's explicit free redundant aligned memory.

    Free    d3e80000 - d3e9c000 (~=100k)
 The reserved memory between d359c000 - d3a00000 (~=4.4M) is unfreed.

In ARM64 platform (with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP)

  sparse_buffer_init
    Reserve ffffffc07d623000 - ffffffc07f623000 (32M)
  Sparse_buffer_alloc
    Alloc   ffffffc07d800000 - ffffffc07f600000 (30M)
  Sparse_buffer_fini
    Free    ffffffc07f600000 - ffffffc07f623000 (140K)
 The reserved memory between ffffffc07d623000 - ffffffc07d800000
 (~=1.9M) is unfreed.

Let's explicit free redundant aligned memory.
