mm/hmm: fix memremap.h, move dev_page_fault_t callback to hmm

2018-12-28T20:11:52+00:00

The kbuild robot reported the following on a development branch that used
memremap.h in a new path:

   In file included from arch/m68k/include/asm/pgtable_mm.h:148:0,
                     from arch/m68k/include/asm/pgtable.h:5,
                     from include/linux/memremap.h:7,
                     from drivers//dax/bus.c:3:
    arch/m68k/include/asm/motorola_pgtable.h: In function 'pgd_offset':
 >> arch/m68k/include/asm/motorola_pgtable.h:199:11: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type 'const struct mm_struct'
      return mm->pgd + pgd_index(address);
               ^~

The ->page_fault() callback is specific to HMM.  Move it to 'struct
hmm_devmem' where the unusual asm/pgtable.h dependency can be contained in
include/linux/hmm.h.  Longer term refactoring this dependency out of HMM
is recommended, but in the meantime memremap.h remains generic.

mm, memory_hotplug: add nid parameter to arch_remove_memory

2018-12-28T20:11:49+00:00

Patch series "Do not touch pages in hot-remove path", v2.

This patchset aims for two things:

 1) A better definition about offline and hot-remove stage
 2) Solving bugs where we can access non-initialized pages
    during hot-remove operations [2] [3].

This is achieved by moving all page/zone handling to the offline
stage, so we do not need to access pages when hot-removing memory.

[2] https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10547445/
[3] https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg161316.html

This patch (of 5):

This is a preparation for the following-up patches.  The idea of passing
the nid is that it will allow us to get rid of the zone parameter
afterwards.

mm, devm_memremap_pages: fix shutdown handling

2018-12-28T20:11:47+00:00

The last step before devm_memremap_pages() returns success is to allocate
a release action, devm_memremap_pages_release(), to tear the entire setup
down.  However, the result from devm_add_action() is not checked.

Checking the error from devm_add_action() is not enough.  The api
currently relies on the fact that the percpu_ref it is using is killed by
the time the devm_memremap_pages_release() is run.  Rather than continue
this awkward situation, offload the responsibility of killing the
percpu_ref to devm_memremap_pages_release() directly.  This allows
devm_memremap_pages() to do the right thing relative to init failures and
shutdown.

Without this change we could fail to register the teardown of
devm_memremap_pages().  The likelihood of hitting this failure is tiny as
small memory allocations almost always succeed.  However, the impact of
the failure is large given any future reconfiguration, or disable/enable,
of an nvdimm namespace will fail forever as subsequent calls to
devm_memremap_pages() will fail to setup the pgmap_radix since there will
be stale entries for the physical address range.

An argument could be made to require that the ->kill() operation be set in
the @pgmap arg rather than passed in separately.  However, it helps code
readability, tracking the lifetime of a given instance, to be able to grep
the kill routine directly at the devm_memremap_pages() call site.

mm, devm_memremap_pages: kill mapping "System RAM" support

2018-12-28T20:11:47+00:00

Given the fact that devm_memremap_pages() requires a percpu_ref that is
torn down by devm_memremap_pages_release() the current support for mapping
RAM is broken.

Support for remapping "System RAM" has been broken since the beginning and
there is no existing user of this this code path, so just kill the support
and make it an explicit error.

This cleanup also simplifies a follow-on patch to fix the error path when
setting a devm release action for devm_memremap_pages_release() fails.

mm, devm_memremap_pages: mark devm_memremap_pages() EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL

2018-12-28T20:11:47+00:00

devm_memremap_pages() is a facility that can create struct page entries
for any arbitrary range and give drivers the ability to subvert core
aspects of page management.

Specifically the facility is tightly integrated with the kernel's memory
hotplug functionality.  It injects an altmap argument deep into the
architecture specific vmemmap implementation to allow allocating from
specific reserved pages, and it has Linux specific assumptions about page
structure reference counting relative to get_user_pages() and
get_user_pages_fast().  It was an oversight and a mistake that this was
not marked EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL from the outset.

Again, devm_memremap_pagex() exposes and relies upon core kernel internal
assumptions and will continue to evolve along with 'struct page', memory
hotplug, and support for new memory types / topologies.  Only an in-kernel
GPL-only driver is expected to keep up with this ongoing evolution.  This
interface, and functionality derived from this interface, is not suitable
for kernel-external drivers.

Merge branch 'xarray' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax

2018-10-28T18:35:40+00:00

Pull XArray conversion from Matthew Wilcox:
 "The XArray provides an improved interface to the radix tree data
  structure, providing locking as part of the API, specifying GFP flags
  at allocation time, eliminating preloading, less re-walking the tree,
  more efficient iterations and not exposing RCU-protected pointers to
  its users.

  This patch set

   1. Introduces the XArray implementation

   2. Converts the pagecache to use it

   3. Converts memremap to use it

  The page cache is the most complex and important user of the radix
  tree, so converting it was most important. Converting the memremap
  code removes the only other user of the multiorder code, which allows
  us to remove the radix tree code that supported it.

  I have 40+ followup patches to convert many other users of the radix
  tree over to the XArray, but I'd like to get this part in first. The
  other conversions haven't been in linux-next and aren't suitable for
  applying yet, but you can see them in the xarray-conv branch if you're
  interested"

mm: defer ZONE_DEVICE page initialization to the point where we init pgmap

2018-10-26T23:26:34+00:00

The ZONE_DEVICE pages were being initialized in two locations.  One was
with the memory_hotplug lock held and another was outside of that lock.
The problem with this is that it was nearly doubling the memory
initialization time.  Instead of doing this twice, once while holding a
global lock and once without, I am opting to defer the initialization to
the one outside of the lock.  This allows us to avoid serializing the
overhead for memory init and we can instead focus on per-node init times.

One issue I encountered is that devm_memremap_pages and
hmm_devmmem_pages_create were initializing only the pgmap field the same
way.  One wasn't initializing hmm_data, and the other was initializing it
to a poison value.  Since this is something that is exposed to the driver
in the case of hmm I am opting for a third option and just initializing
hmm_data to 0 since this is going to be exposed to unknown third party
drivers.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.19_dax-memory-failure' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

2018-08-26T01:43:59+00:00

Pull libnvdimm memory-failure update from Dave Jiang:
 "As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap
  backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several
  possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax
  mappings.

  In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses:

   1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races
      that would typically be handled by the page lock.

   2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the
      "compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine
      the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn.

   3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively
      accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and
      otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel.

  A side effect of this enabling is that MADV_HWPOISON becomes usable
  for dax mappings, however the primary motivation is to allow the
  system to survive userspace consumption of hardware-poison via dax.
  Specifically the current behavior is:

     mce: Uncorrected hardware memory error in user-access at af34214200
     {1}[Hardware Error]: It has been corrected by h/w and requires no further action
     mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged
     {1}[Hardware Error]: event severity: corrected
     Memory failure: 0xaf34214: reserved kernel page still referenced by 1 users
     [..]
     Memory failure: 0xaf34214: recovery action for reserved kernel page: Failed
     mce: Memory error not recovered
     

  ...and with these changes:

     Memory failure: 0x20cb00: Killing dax-pmd:5421 due to hardware memory corruption
     Memory failure: 0x20cb00: recovery action for dax page: Recovered
