<content type='text'>
According to 'admin-guide/mm/memory-hotplug.rst', the memory block ID,
instead of the section index, is shown by '/sys/devices/system/memory/
memoryX/phys_index'.

Fix the comments to match with 'admin-guide/mm/memory-hotplug.rst'.
Besides, use the existing helper memory_block_id() to convert the section
index to the memory block index.

No functional change intended.

<title>mm/hwpoison: introduce per-memory_block hwpoison counter</title>

Currently PageHWPoison flag does not behave well when experiencing memory
hotremove/hotplug.  Any data field in struct page is unreliable when the
associated memory is offlined, and the current mechanism can't tell
whether a memory block is onlined because a new memory devices is
installed or because previous failed offline operations are undone. 
Especially if there's a hwpoisoned memory, it's unclear what the best
option is.

So introduce a new mechanism to make struct memory_block remember that a
memory block has hwpoisoned memory inside it.  And make any online event
fail if the onlining memory block contains hwpoison.  struct memory_block
is freed and reallocated over ACPI-based hotremove/hotplug, but not over
sysfs-based hotremove/hotplug.  So the new counter can distinguish these
cases.

Currently unpoison_memory(unsigned long pfn) is designed for soft
poison(hwpoison-inject) only.  Since 17fae1294ad9d, the KPTE gets cleared
on a x86 platform once hardware memory corrupts.

Unpoisoning a hardware corrupted page puts page back buddy only, the
kernel has a chance to access the page with *NOT PRESENT* KPTE.  This
leads BUG during accessing on the corrupted KPTE.

Suggested by David&amp;Naoya, disable unpoison mechanism when a real HW error
happens to avoid BUG like this:

 Unpoison: Software-unpoisoned page 0x61234

__add_memory_block() calls both put_device() and device_unregister() when
storing the memory block into the xarray.  This is incorrect because
xarray doesn't take an additional reference and device_unregister()
already calls put_device().

Triggering the issue looks really unlikely and its only effect should be
to log a spurious warning about a ref counted issue.

<title>drivers/base/memory: clarify adding and removing of memory blocks</title>

Let's make it clearer at which places we actually add and remove memory
blocks -- streamlining the terminology -- and highlight which memory block
start out online and which start out as offline.

 * rename add_memory_block -&gt; add_boot_memory_block
 * rename init_memory_block -&gt; add_memory_block
 * rename unregister_memory -&gt; remove_memory_block
 * rename register_memory -&gt; __add_memory_block
 * add add_hotplug_memory_block
 * mark add_boot_memory_block with __init (suggested by Oscar)

__add_memory_block() is  a pure helper for add_memory_block(), remove
the somewhat obvious comment.

 * rename add_memory_block -&gt; add_boot_memory_block
 * rename init_memory_block -&gt; add_memory_block
 * rename unregister_memory -&gt; remove_memory_block
 * rename register_memory -&gt; __add_memory_block
 * add add_hotplug_memory_block
 * mark add_boot_memory_block with __init (suggested by Oscar)

__add_memory_block() is  a pure helper for add_memory_block(), remove
the somewhat obvious comment.

test_pages_in_a_zone() is just another nasty PFN walker that can easily
stumble over ZONE_DEVICE memory ranges falling into the same memory block
as ordinary system RAM: the memmap of parts of these ranges might possibly
be uninitialized.  In fact, we observed (on an older kernel) with UBSAN:

  UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in ./include/linux/mm.h:1133:50

We seem to stumble over a memmap that contains a garbage zone id.  While
we could try inserting pfn_to_online_page() calls, it will just make
memory offlining slower, because we use test_pages_in_a_zone() to make
sure we're offlining pages that all belong to the same zone.

Let's just get rid of this PFN walker and determine the single zone of a
memory block -- if any -- for early memory blocks during boot.  For memory
onlining, we know the single zone already.  Let's avoid any additional
memmap scanning and just rely on the zone information available during
boot.

For memory hot(un)plug, we only really care about memory blocks that:
* span a single zone (and, thereby, a single node)
* are completely System RAM (IOW, no holes, no ZONE_DEVICE)
If one of these conditions is not met, we reject memory offlining.
Hotplugged memory blocks (starting out offline), always meet both
conditions.

There are three scenarios to handle:

(1) Memory hot(un)plug

A memory block with zone == NULL cannot be offlined, corresponding to
our previous test_pages_in_a_zone() check.

After successful memory onlining/offlining, we simply set the zone
accordingly.
* Memory onlining: set the zone we just used for onlining
* Memory offlining: set zone = NULL

So a hotplugged memory block starts with zone = NULL. Once memory
onlining is done, we set the proper zone.

(2) Boot memory with !CONFIG_NUMA

We know that there is just a single pgdat, so we simply scan all zones
of that pgdat for an intersection with our memory block PFN range when
adding the memory block. If more than one zone intersects (e.g., DMA and
DMA32 on x86 for the first memory block) we set zone = NULL and
consequently mimic what test_pages_in_a_zone() used to do.

(3) Boot memory with CONFIG_NUMA

At the point in time we create the memory block devices during boot, we
don't know yet which nodes *actually* span a memory block. While we could
scan all zones of all nodes for intersections, overlapping nodes complicate
the situation and scanning all nodes is possibly expensive. But that
problem has already been solved by the code that sets the node of a memory
block and creates the link in the sysfs --
do_register_memory_block_under_node().

So, we hook into the code that sets the node id for a memory block. If
we already have a different node id set for the memory block, we know
that multiple nodes *actually* have PFNs falling into our memory block:
we set zone = NULL and consequently mimic what test_pages_in_a_zone() used
to do. If there is no node id set, we do the same as (2) for the given
node.

Note that the call order in driver_init() is:
-&gt; memory_dev_init(): create memory block devices
-&gt; node_dev_init(): link memory block devices to the node and set the
		    node id

So in summary, we detect if there is a single zone responsible for this
memory block and we consequently store the zone in that case in the
memory block, updating it during memory onlining/offlining.

<title>drivers/base/memory: add memory block to memory group after registration succeeded</title>

If register_memory() fails, we freed the memory block but already added
the memory block to the group list, not good.  Let's defer adding the
block to the memory group to after registering the memory block device.

We do handle it properly during unregister_memory(), but that's not
called when the registration fails.

<title>mm/hwpoison: avoid the impact of hwpoison_filter() return value on mce handler</title>

When the hwpoison page meets the filter conditions, it should not be
regarded as successful memory_failure() processing for mce handler, but
should return a distinct value, otherwise mce handler regards the error
page has been identified and isolated, which may lead to calling
set_mce_nospec() to change page attribute, etc.

Here memory_failure() return -EOPNOTSUPP to indicate that the error
event is filtered, mce handler should not take any action for this
situation and hwpoison injector should treat as correct.
