The __find_rmem() function is the only place that references the phandle
field of the reserved_mem struct. __find_rmem() is used to match a
device_node object to its corresponding entry in the reserved_mem array
using its phandle value. But, there is already a function called
of_reserved_mem_lookup() which carries out the same action using the
name of the node.

Using the of_reserved_mem_lookup() function is more reliable because
every node is guaranteed to have a name, but not all nodes will have a
phandle.

Nodes are only assigned a phandle if they are explicitly defined in the
DT using "phandle = &lt;phandle_number&gt;", or if they are referenced by
another node in the DT. Hence, If the phandle field is empty, then
__find_rmem() will return a false negative.

Hence, delete the __find_rmem() function and switch to using the
of_reserved_mem_lookup() function to find the corresponding entry of a
device_node in the reserved_mem array. Since the phandle field of the
reserved_mem struct is now unused, delete that as well.

The split of /reserved-memory handling between fdt.c and
of_reserved_mem.c makes for reading and restructuring the code
difficult. As of_reserved_mem.c is only built for
CONFIG_OF_EARLY_FLATTREE already, move all the code to one spot.

sort() in Linux is based on heapsort which is not a stable sort
algorithm - equal elements are being reordered. For reserved memory in
the device tree this happens mainly for dynamic allocations: They do not
have an address to sort with, so they are reordered somewhat randomly
when adding/removing other unrelated reserved memory nodes.

Functionally this is not a big problem, but it's confusing during
development when all the addresses change after adding unrelated
reserved memory nodes.

Make the order stable by sorting dynamic allocations according to
the node order in the device tree. Static allocations are not affected
by this because they are still sorted by their (fixed) address.

<title>of: reserved_mem: Try to keep range allocations contiguous</title>

Right now dynamic reserved memory regions are allocated either
bottom-up or top-down, depending on the memblock setting of the
architecture. This is fine when the address is arbitrary. However,
when using "alloc-ranges" the regions are often placed somewhere
in the middle of (free) RAM, even if the range starts or ends next
to another (static) reservation.

Try to detect this situation, and choose explicitly between bottom-up
or top-down to allocate the memory close to the other reservations:

  1. If the "alloc-range" starts at the end or inside an existing
     reservation, use bottom-up.
  2. If the "alloc-range" ends at the start or inside an existing
     reservation, use top-down.
  3. If both or none is the case, keep the current
     (architecture-specific) behavior.

There are plenty of edge cases where only a more complex algorithm
would help, but even this simple approach helps in many cases to keep
the reserved memory (and therefore also the free memory) contiguous.

It's important to know reserved-mem information in mobile world
since reserved memory via device tree keeps increased in platform
(e.g., 45% in our platform). Therefore, it's crucial to know the
reserved memory sizes breakdown for the memory accounting.

This patch prints out reserved memory details during boot to make
them visible.

<content type='text'>
Patch series "Fix kmemleak crashes when scanning CMA regions", v2.

When trying to boot a device with an ARM64 kernel with the following
config options enabled:

CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC_ENABLE_DEFAULT=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y

a crash is encountered when kmemleak starts to scan the list of gray
or allocated objects that it maintains. Upon closer inspection, it was
observed that these page-faults always occurred when kmemleak attempted
to scan a CMA region.

At the moment, kmemleak is made aware of CMA regions that are specified
through the devicetree to be dynamically allocated within a range of
addresses. However, kmemleak should not need to scan CMA regions or any
reserved memory region, as those regions can be used for DMA transfers
between drivers and peripherals, and thus wouldn't contain anything
useful for kmemleak.

Additionally, since CMA regions are unmapped from the kernel's address
space when they are freed to the buddy allocator at boot when
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled, kmemleak shouldn't attempt to access
those memory regions, as that will trigger a crash. Thus, kmemleak
should ignore all dynamically allocated reserved memory regions.


This patch (of 1):

Currently, kmemleak ignores dynamically allocated reserved memory regions
that don't have a kernel mapping.  However, regions that do retain a
kernel mapping (e.g.  CMA regions) do get scanned by kmemleak.

This is not ideal for two reasons:

1  kmemleak works by scanning memory regions for pointers to allocated
   objects to determine if those objects have been leaked or not. 
   However, reserved memory regions can be used between drivers and
   peripherals for DMA transfers, and thus, would not contain pointers to
   allocated objects, making it unnecessary for kmemleak to scan these
   reserved memory regions.

2  When CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled, along with kmemleak, the
   CMA reserved memory regions are unmapped from the kernel's address
   space when they are freed to buddy at boot.  These CMA reserved regions
   are still tracked by kmemleak, however, and when kmemleak attempts to
   scan them, a crash will happen, as accessing the CMA region will result
   in a page-fault, since the regions are unmapped.

Thus, use kmemleak_ignore_phys() for all dynamically allocated reserved

Patch series "Fix kmemleak crashes when scanning CMA regions", v2.

When trying to boot a device with an ARM64 kernel with the following
config options enabled:

CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC_ENABLE_DEFAULT=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK=y

a crash is encountered when kmemleak starts to scan the list of gray
or allocated objects that it maintains. Upon closer inspection, it was
observed that these page-faults always occurred when kmemleak attempted
to scan a CMA region.

At the moment, kmemleak is made aware of CMA regions that are specified
through the devicetree to be dynamically allocated within a range of
addresses. However, kmemleak should not need to scan CMA regions or any
reserved memory region, as those regions can be used for DMA transfers
between drivers and peripherals, and thus wouldn't contain anything
useful for kmemleak.

Additionally, since CMA regions are unmapped from the kernel's address
space when they are freed to the buddy allocator at boot when
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled, kmemleak shouldn't attempt to access
those memory regions, as that will trigger a crash. Thus, kmemleak
should ignore all dynamically allocated reserved memory regions.


This patch (of 1):

Currently, kmemleak ignores dynamically allocated reserved memory regions
that don't have a kernel mapping.  However, regions that do retain a
kernel mapping (e.g.  CMA regions) do get scanned by kmemleak.

This is not ideal for two reasons:

1  kmemleak works by scanning memory regions for pointers to allocated
   objects to determine if those objects have been leaked or not. 
   However, reserved memory regions can be used between drivers and
   peripherals for DMA transfers, and thus, would not contain pointers to
   allocated objects, making it unnecessary for kmemleak to scan these
   reserved memory regions.

2  When CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled, along with kmemleak, the
   CMA reserved memory regions are unmapped from the kernel's address
   space when they are freed to buddy at boot.  These CMA reserved regions
   are still tracked by kmemleak, however, and when kmemleak attempts to
   scan them, a crash will happen, as accessing the CMA region will result
   in a page-fault, since the regions are unmapped.

Thus, use kmemleak_ignore_phys() for all dynamically allocated reserved
memory regions, instead of those that do not have a kernel mapping
associated with them.

If the allocation/reservation of reserved-memory fails, it is normally
an error, so print it as an error so that it doesn't get hidden from the
console due to the loglevel.  Also make the allocation failure include
the size just like the reservation failure.

Patch series "mm: enforce pageblock_order &lt; MAX_ORDER".

Having pageblock_order &gt;= MAX_ORDER seems to be able to happen in corner
cases and some parts of the kernel are not prepared for it.

For example, Aneesh has shown [1] that such kernels can be compiled on
ppc64 with 64k base pages by setting FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER=8, which will
run into a WARN_ON_ONCE(order &gt;= MAX_ORDER) in comapction code right
during boot.

We can get pageblock_order &gt;= MAX_ORDER when the default hugetlb size is
bigger than the maximum allocation granularity of the buddy, in which
case we are no longer talking about huge pages but instead gigantic
pages.

Having pageblock_order &gt;= MAX_ORDER can only make alloc_contig_range()
of such gigantic pages more likely to succeed.

Reliable use of gigantic pages either requires boot time allcoation or
CMA, no need to overcomplicate some places in the kernel to optimize for
corner cases that are broken in other areas of the kernel.

This patch (of 2):

Let's enforce pageblock_order &lt; MAX_ORDER and simplify.

Especially patch #1 can be regarded a cleanup before:
	[PATCH v5 0/6] Use pageblock_order for cma and alloc_contig_range
	alignment. [2]
