mm/memory_hotplug: disable the functionality for 32b

2020-06-05T02:06:23+00:00

Memory hotlug is broken for 32b systems at least since c6f03e2903c9 ("mm,
memory_hotplug: remove zone restrictions") which has considerably reworked
how can be memory associated with movable/kernel zones.  The same is not
really trivial to achieve in 32b where only lowmem is the kernel zone.
While we can tweak this immediate problem around there are likely other
land mines hidden at other places.

It is also quite dubious that there is a real usecase for the memory
hotplug on 32b in the first place.  Low memory is just too small to be
hotplugable (for hot add) and generally unusable for hotremove.  Adding
more memory to highmem is also dubious because it would increase the low
mem or vmalloc space pressure for memmaps.

Restrict the functionality to 64b systems.  This will help future
development to focus on usecases that have real life application.  We can
remove this restriction in future in presence of a real life usecase of
course but until then make it explicit that hotplug on 32b is broken and
requires a non trivial amount of work to fix.

Robin said:
 "32-bit Arm doesn't support memory hotplug, and as far as I'm aware
  there's little likelihood of it ever wanting to. FWIW it looks like
  SuperH is the only pure-32-bit architecture to have hotplug support at
  all"

mm/memory_hotplug: handle memblocks only with CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK

2020-06-05T02:06:23+00:00

The comment in add_memory_resource() is stale: hotadd_new_pgdat() will no
longer call get_pfn_range_for_nid(), as a hotadded pgdat will simply span
no pages at all, until memory is moved to the zone/node via
move_pfn_range_to_zone() - e.g., when onlining memory blocks.

The only archs that care about memblocks for hotplugged memory (either for
iterating over all system RAM or testing for memory validity) are arm64,
s390x, and powerpc - due to CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK.  Without
CONFIG_ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK, we can simply stop messing with memblocks.

mm: parallelize deferred_init_memmap()

2020-06-04T03:09:45+00:00

Deferred struct page init is a significant bottleneck in kernel boot.
Optimizing it maximizes availability for large-memory systems and allows
spinning up short-lived VMs as needed without having to leave them
running.  It also benefits bare metal machines hosting VMs that are
sensitive to downtime.  In projects such as VMM Fast Restart[1], where
guest state is preserved across kexec reboot, it helps prevent application
and network timeouts in the guests.

Multithread to take full advantage of system memory bandwidth.

The maximum number of threads is capped at the number of CPUs on the node
because speedups always improve with additional threads on every system
tested, and at this phase of boot, the system is otherwise idle and
waiting on page init to finish.

Helper threads operate on section-aligned ranges to both avoid false
sharing when setting the pageblock's migrate type and to avoid accessing
uninitialized buddy pages, though max order alignment is enough for the
latter.

The minimum chunk size is also a section.  There was benefit to using
multiple threads even on relatively small memory (1G) systems, and this is
the smallest size that the alignment allows.

The time (milliseconds) is the slowest node to initialize since boot
blocks until all nodes finish.  intel_pstate is loaded in active mode
without hwp and with turbo enabled, and intel_idle is active as well.

mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP option

2020-06-04T03:09:43+00:00

CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is used to differentiate initialization of
nodes and zones structures between the systems that have region to node
mapping in memblock and those that don't.

Currently all the NUMA architectures enable this option and for the
non-NUMA systems we can presume that all the memory belongs to node 0 and
therefore the compile time configuration option is not required.

The remaining few architectures that use DISCONTIGMEM without NUMA are
easily updated to use memblock_add_node() instead of memblock_add() and
thus have proper correspondence of memblock regions to NUMA nodes.

Still, free_area_init_node() must have a backward compatible version
because its semantics with and without CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is
different.  Once all the architectures will use the new semantics, the
entire compatibility layer can be dropped.

To avoid addition of extra run time memory to store node id for
architectures that keep memblock but have only a single node, the node id
field of the memblock_region is guarded by CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES and
the corresponding accessors presume that in those cases it is always 0.

sparc32: mm: Disable SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS

2020-06-03T01:45:51+00:00

The SRMMU page-table allocator is not compatible with SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS
for two major reasons:

  1. Pages are allocated via memblock, and therefore the ptl is not
     cleared by prep_new_page(), which is expected by ptlock_init()

  2. Multiple PTE tables can exist in a single page, causing them to
     share the same ptl and deadlock when attempting to take the same
     lock twice (e.g. as part of copy_page_range()).

Ensure that SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS is not selected for SPARC32.

mm: only allow page table mappings for built-in zsmalloc

2020-06-02T17:59:10+00:00

This allows to unexport map_vm_area and unmap_kernel_range, which are
rather deep internal and should not be available to modules, as they for
example allow fine grained control of mapping permissions, and also
allow splitting the setup of a vmalloc area and the actual mapping and
thus expose vmalloc internals.

zsmalloc is typically built-in and continues to work (just like the
percpu-vm code using a similar patter), while modular zsmalloc also
continues to work, but must use copies.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-5.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

2020-04-09T04:03:40+00:00

Pull libnvdimm and dax updates from Dan Williams:
 "There were multiple touches outside of drivers/nvdimm/ this round to
  add cross arch compatibility to the devm_memremap_pages() interface,
  enhance numa information for persistent memory ranges, and add a
  zero_page_range() dax operation.

  This cycle I switched from the patchwork api to Konstantin's b4 script
  for collecting tags (from x86, PowerPC, filesystem, and device-mapper
  folks), and everything looks to have gone ok there. This has all
  appeared in -next with no reported issues.

  Summary:

   - Add support for region alignment configuration and enforcement to
     fix compatibility across architectures and PowerPC page size
     configurations.

   - Introduce 'zero_page_range' as a dax operation. This facilitates
     filesystem-dax operation without a block-device.

   - Introduce phys_to_target_node() to facilitate drivers that want to
     know resulting numa node if a given reserved address range was
     onlined.

   - Advertise a persistence-domain for of_pmem and papr_scm. The
     persistence domain indicates where cpu-store cycles need to reach
     in the platform-memory subsystem before the platform will consider
     them power-fail protected.

   - Promote numa_map_to_online_node() to a cross-kernel generic
     facility.

   - Save x86 numa information to allow for node-id lookups for reserved
     memory ranges, deploy that capability for the e820-pmem driver.

   - Pick up some miscellaneous minor fixes, that missed v5.6-final,
     including a some smatch reports in the ioctl path and some unit
     test compilation fixups.

   - Fixup some flexible-array declarations"

mm/zswap: allow setting default status, compressor and allocator in Kconfig

2020-04-07T17:43:41+00:00

The compressed cache for swap pages (zswap) currently needs from 1 to 3
extra kernel command line parameters in order to make it work: it has to
be enabled by adding a "zswap.enabled=1" command line parameter and if one
wants a different compressor or pool allocator than the default lzo / zbud
combination then these choices also need to be specified on the kernel
command line in additional parameters.

Using a different compressor and allocator for zswap is actually pretty
common as guides often recommend using the lz4 / z3fold pair instead of
the default one.  In such case it is also necessary to remember to enable
the appropriate compression algorithm and pool allocator in the kernel
config manually.

Let's avoid the need for adding these kernel command line parameters and
automatically pull in the dependencies for the selected compressor
algorithm and pool allocator by adding an appropriate default switches to
Kconfig.

The default values for these options match what the code was using
previously as its defaults.
