alpha: io: reorder barriers to guarantee writeX() and iowriteX() ordering
memory-barriers.txt has been updated with the following requirement.
"When using writel(), a prior wmb() is not needed to guarantee that the
cache coherent memory writes have completed before writing to the MMIO
region."
Current writeX() and iowriteX() implementations on alpha are not
satisfying this requirement as the barrier is after the register write.
Move mb() in writeX() and iowriteX() functions to guarantee that HW
observes memory changes before performing register operations.

alpha: Implement CPU vulnerabilities sysfs functions.
Implement the CPU vulnerabilty show functions for meltdown, spectre_v1

Tests on XP1000 (EV67/667MHz) and ES45 (EV68CB/1.25GHz) show them
to be vulnerable to Meltdown and Spectre V1. In the case of
Meltdown I saw a 1 to 2% success rate in reading bytes on the
XP1000 and 50 to 60% success rate on the ES45. (This compares to
99.97% success reported for Intel CPUs.) Report EV6 and later

A simple git command line to show executable C/asm/header files is this:

"This set represents improvements to the scripts/leaking_addresses.pl
script.
The major improvement is that with this set applied the script
actually runs in a reasonable amount of time (less than a minute on a
standard stock Ubuntu user desktop). Also, we have a second maintainer
now and a tree hosted on kernel.org
We do a few code clean ups. We fix the command help output. Handling
of the vsyscall address range is fixed to check the whole range
instead of just the start/end addresses. We add support for 5 page
table levels (suggested on LKML). We use a system command to get the
machine architecture instead of using Perl. Calling this command for
every regex comparison is what previously choked the script, caching
the result of this call gave the major speed improvement. We add
support for scanning 32-bit kernels using the user/kernel memory
split. Path skipping code refactored and simplified (meaning easier
script configuration). We remove version numbering. We add a variable
name to improve readability of a regex and finally we check filenames
for leaking addresses.
Currently script scans /proc/PID for all PID. With this set applied we
only scan for PID==1. It was observed that on an idle system files
under /proc/PID are predominantly the same for all processes. Also it
was noted that the script does not scan _all_ the kernel since it only
scans active processes. Scanning only for PID==1 makes explicit the
inherent flaw in the script that the scan is only partial and also
speeds things up"

Pull fscache updates from David Howells:
"Three patches that fix some of AFS's usage of fscache:
(1) Need to invalidate the cache if a foreign data change is detected
on the server.
(2) Move the vnode ID uniquifier (equivalent to i_generation) from
the auxiliary data to the index key to prevent a race between
file delete and a subsequent file create seeing the same index
key.
(3) Need to retire cookies that correspond to files that we think got
deleted on the server.
Four patches to fix some things in fscache and cachefiles:
(4) Fix a couple of checker warnings.
(5) Correctly indicate to the end-of-operation callback whether an
operation completed or was cancelled.
(6) Add a check for multiple cookie relinquishment.
(7) Fix a path through the asynchronous write that doesn't wake up a
waiter for a page if the cache decides not to write that page,
but discards it instead.
A couple of patches to add tracepoints to fscache and cachefiles:
(8) Add tracepoints for cookie operators, object state machine
execution, cachefiles object management and cachefiles VFS
operations.
(9) Add tracepoints for fscache operation management and page
wrangling.
And then three development patches:
(10) Attach the index key and auxiliary data to the cookie, pass this
information through various fscache-netfs API functions and get
rid of the callbacks to the netfs to get it.
This means that the cache can get at this information, even if
the netfs goes away. It also means that the cache can be lazy in
updating the coherency data.
(11) Pass the object data size through various fscache-netfs API
rather than calling back to the netfs for it, and store the value
in the object.
This makes it easier to correctly resize the object, as the size
is updated on writes to the cache, rather than calling back out
to the netfs.
(12) Maintain a catalogue of allocated cookies. This makes it possible
to catch cookie collision up front rather than down in the bowels
of the cache being run from a service thread from the object
state machine.
This will also make it possible in the future to reconnect to a
cookie that's not gone dead yet because it's waiting for
finalisation of the storage and also make it possible to bring
cookies online if the cache is added after the cookie has been
obtained"

Pull rdma updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"Doug and I are at a conference next week so if another PR is sent I
expect it to only be bug fixes. Parav noted yesterday that there are
some fringe case behavior changes in his work that he would like to
fix, and I see that Intel has a number of rc looking patches for HFI1
they posted yesterday.
Parav is again the biggest contributor by patch count with his ongoing
work to enable container support in the RDMA stack, followed by Leon
doing syzkaller inspired cleanups, though most of the actual fixing
went to RC.
There is one uncomfortable series here fixing the user ABI to actually
work as intended in 32 bit mode. There are lots of notes in the commit
messages, but the basic summary is we don't think there is an actual
32 bit kernel user of drivers/infiniband for several good reasons.
However we are seeing people want to use a 32 bit user space with 64
bit kernel, which didn't completely work today. So in fixing it we
required a 32 bit rxe user to upgrade their userspace. rxe users are
still already quite rare and we think a 32 bit one is non-existing.
- Fix RDMA uapi headers to actually compile in userspace and be more
complete
- Three shared with netdev pull requests from Mellanox:
* 7 patches, mostly to net with 1 IB related one at the back).
This series addresses an IRQ performance issue (patch 1),
cleanups related to the fix for the IRQ performance problem
(patches 2-6), and then extends the fragmented completion queue
support that already exists in the net side of the driver to the
ib side of the driver (patch 7).
* Mostly IB, with 5 patches to net that are needed to support the
remaining 10 patches to the IB subsystem. This series extends
the current 'representor' framework when the mlx5 driver is in
switchdev mode from being a netdev only construct to being a
netdev/IB dev construct. The IB dev is limited to raw Eth queue
pairs only, but by having an IB dev of this type attached to the
representor for a switchdev port, it enables DPDK to work on the
switchdev device.
* All net related, but needed as infrastructure for the rdma
driver
- Updates for the hns, i40iw, bnxt_re, cxgb3, cxgb4, hns drivers
- SRP performance updates
- IB uverbs write path cleanup patch series from Leon
- Add RDMA_CM support to ib_srpt. This is disabled by default. Users
need to set the port for ib_srpt to listen on in configfs in order
for it to be enabled
(/sys/kernel/config/target/srpt/discovery_auth/rdma_cm_port)
- TSO and Scatter FCS support in mlx4
- Refactor of modify_qp routine to resolve problems seen while
working on new code that is forthcoming
- More refactoring and updates of RDMA CM for containers support from
Parav
- mlx5 'fine grained packet pacing', 'ipsec offload' and 'device
memory' user API features
- Infrastructure updates for the new IOCTL interface, based on
increased usage
- ABI compatibility bug fixes to fully support 32 bit userspace on 64
bit kernel as was originally intended. See the commit messages for
extensive details

leaking_addresses: add 32-bit support
Currently script only supports x86_64 and ppc64. It would be nice to be
able to scan 32-bit machines also. We can add support for 32-bit
architectures by modifying how we check for false positives, taking
advantage of the page offset used by the kernel, and using the correct
regular expression.
Support for 32-bit machines is enabled by the observation that the kernel
addresses on 32-bit machines are larger [in value] than the page offset.
We can use this to filter false positives when scanning the kernel for
leaking addresses.
Programmatic determination of the running architecture is not
immediately obvious (current 32-bit machines return various strings from
`uname -m`). We therefore provide a flag to enable scanning of 32-bit
kernels. Also we can check the kernel config file for the offset and if
not found default to 0xc0000000. A command line option to parse in the
page offset is also provided. We do automatically detect architecture
if running on ix86.

fscache: Maintain a catalogue of allocated cookies
Maintain a catalogue of allocated cookies so that cookie collisions can be
handled properly. For the moment, this just involves printing a warning

in future it might make sense to wait for the old cookie to finish being

This requires the cookie key to be stored attached to the cookie so that we
still have the key available if the netfs relinquishes the cookie. This is
done by an earlier patch.
The catalogue also renders redundant fscache_netfs_list (used for checking
for duplicates), so that can be removed.

mm/ksm: fix interaction with THP
This patch fixes a corner case for KSM. When two pages belong or
belonged to the same transparent hugepage, and they should be merged,
KSM fails to split the page, and therefore no merging happens.
This bug can be reproduced by:
* making sure ksm is running (in case disabling ksmtuned)
* enabling transparent hugepages
* allocating a THP-aligned 1-THP-sized buffer
e.g. on amd64: posix_memalign(&p, 1<<21, 1<<21)
* filling it with the same values
e.g. memset(p, 42, 1<<21)
* performing madvise to make it mergeable
e.g. madvise(p, 1<<21, MADV_MERGEABLE)
* waiting for KSM to perform a few scans
The expected outcome is that the all the pages get merged (1 shared and
the rest sharing); the actual outcome is that no pages get merged (1
unshared and the rest volatile)
The reason of this behaviour is that we increase the reference count
once for both pages we want to merge, but if they belong to the same
hugepage (or compound page), the reference counter used in both cases is
the one of the head of the compound page. This means that
split_huge_page will find a value of the reference counter too high and
will fail.
This patch solves this problem by testing if the two pages to merge
belong to the same hugepage when attempting to merge them. If so, the
hugepage is split safely. This means that the hugepage is not split if
not necessary.

mm/page_isolation.c: make start_isolate_page_range() fail if already isolated
start_isolate_page_range() is used to set the migrate type of a set of
pageblocks to MIGRATE_ISOLATE while attempting to start a migration
operation. It assumes that only one thread is calling it for the
specified range. This routine is used by CMA, memory hotplug and
gigantic huge pages. Each of these users synchronize access to the
range within their subsystem. However, two subsystems (CMA and gigantic
huge pages for example) could attempt operations on the same range. If
this happens, one thread may 'undo' the work another thread is doing.
This can result in pageblocks being incorrectly left marked as
MIGRATE_ISOLATE and therefore not available for page allocation.
What is ideally needed is a way to synchronize access to a set of
pageblocks that are undergoing isolation and migration. The only thing
we know about these pageblocks is that they are all in the same zone. A
per-node mutex is too coarse as we want to allow multiple operations on
different ranges within the same zone concurrently. Instead, we will
use the migration type of the pageblocks themselves as a form of
synchronization.
start_isolate_page_range sets the migration type on a set of page-
blocks going in order from the one associated with the smallest pfn to
the largest pfn. The zone lock is acquired to check and set the
migration type. When going through the list of pageblocks check if
MIGRATE_ISOLATE is already set. If so, this indicates another thread is
working on this pageblock. We know exactly which pageblocks we set, so
clean up by undo those and return -EBUSY.
This allows start_isolate_page_range to serve as a synchronization
mechanism and will allow for more general use of callers making use of
these interfaces. Update comments in alloc_contig_range to reflect this
new functionality.
Each CPU holds the associated zone lock to modify or examine the
migration type of a pageblock. And, it will only examine/update a
single pageblock per lock acquire/release cycle.

mm: change return type to vm_fault_t
The plan for these patches is to introduce the typedef, initially just
as documentation ("These functions should return a VM_FAULT_ status").
We'll trickle the patches to individual drivers/filesystems in through
the maintainers, as far as possible. Then we'll change the typedef to
an unsigned int and break the compilation of any unconverted
drivers/filesystems.
vmf_insert_page(), vmf_insert_mixed() and vmf_insert_pfn() are three
newly added functions. The various drivers/filesystems where return
value of fault(), huge_fault(), page_mkwrite() and pfn_mkwrite() get
converted, will need them. These functions will return correct
VM_FAULT_ code based on err value.
We've had bugs before where drivers returned -EFOO. And we have this
silly inefficiency where vm_insert_xxx() return an errno which (afaict)
every driver then converts into a VM_FAULT code. In many cases drivers
failed to return correct VM_FAULT code value despite of vm_insert_xxx()
fails. We have indentified and clean up all those existing bugs and
silly inefficiencies in driver/filesystems by adding these three new
inline wrappers. As mentioned above, we will trickle those patches to
individual drivers/filesystems in through maintainers after these three
wrapper functions are merged.
Eventually we can convert vm_insert_xxx() into vmf_insert_xxx() and
remove these inline wrappers, but these are a good intermediate step.

Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too
many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed.
This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available. For high-
order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for
background compaction. If the zone is not below its watermarks or
reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to
reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up.
When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be
woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim. This allows high-order
allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even

KASAN splats indicate that in some cases we free a live mm, then

the culprit remains elusive.
Let's have __mmdrop() verify that the mm isn't live for the current

this class of issue earlier, and without requiring KASAN.
Currently, idle_task_exit() leaves active_mm stale after it switches to

because a huge number of objects which we previously forcibly stored in

- zsmalloc now uses 47424 physical pages, which is less than 48787 pages
zsmalloc used before.
- objects that we store in class-3264 share zspages. That's why overall
the number of pages that both class-4096 and class-3264 consumed went
down from 10924 to 9564.

zsmalloc: introduce zs_huge_class_size()
Patch series "zsmalloc/zram: drop zram's max_zpage_size", v3.
ZRAM's max_zpage_size is a bad thing. It forces zsmalloc to store
normal objects as huge ones, which results in bigger zsmalloc memory
usage. Drop it and use actual zsmalloc huge-class value when decide if
the object is huge or not.
This patch (of 2):
Not every object can be share its zspage with other objects, e.g. when
the object is as big as zspage or nearly as big a zspage. For such
objects zsmalloc has a so called huge class - every object which belongs
to huge class consumes the entire zspage (which consists of a physical
page). On x86_64, PAGE_SHIFT 12 box, the first non-huge class size is
3264, so starting down from size 3264, objects can share page(-s) and
thus minimize memory wastage.
ZRAM, however, has its own statically defined watermark for huge
objects, namely "3 * PAGE_SIZE / 4 = 3072", and forcibly stores every
object larger than this watermark (3072) as a PAGE_SIZE object, in other
words, to a huge class, while zsmalloc can keep some of those objects in
non-huge classes. This results in increased memory consumption.
zsmalloc knows better if the object is huge or not. Introduce
zs_huge_class_size() function which tells if the given object can be
stored in one of non-huge classes or not. This will let us to drop
ZRAM's huge object watermark and fully rely on zsmalloc when we decide
if the object is huge.

mm: fix races between swapoff and flush dcache
Thanks to commit
4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB
trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap
device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the
address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space
from being freed during accessing.
The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture
specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous
pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases
there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff,
for example,
CPU1 CPU2
__get_user_pages() swapoff()
flush_dcache_page()
mapping = page_mapping()
... exit_swap_address_space()
... kvfree(spaces)
mapping_mapped(mapping)
The address space may be accessed after being freed.
But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care
about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be
used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures
follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and
whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the
dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap)
to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and
mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all.
So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping()
is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL
otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are
replaced with page_mapping_file().

mm, powerpc: use vma_kernel_pagesize() in vma_mmu_pagesize()
Patch series "mm, smaps: MMUPageSize for device-dax", v3.
Similar to commit
31383c6865a5 ("mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to
vm_operations_struct") here is another occasion where we want
special-case hugetlbfs/hstate enabling to also apply to device-dax.
This prompts the question what other hstate conversions we might do
beyond ->split() and ->pagesize(), but this appears to be the last of
the usages of hstate_vma() in generic/non-hugetlbfs specific code paths.
This patch (of 3):
The current powerpc definition of vma_mmu_pagesize() open codes looking
up the page size via hstate. It is identical to the generic
vma_kernel_pagesize() implementation.
Now, vma_kernel_pagesize() is growing support for determining the page
size of Device-DAX vmas in addition to the existing Hugetlbfs page size
determination.
Ideally, if the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() used vma_kernel_pagesize() it
would automatically benefit from any new vma-type support that is added
to vma_kernel_pagesize(). However, the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() is
prevented from calling vma_kernel_pagesize() due to a circular header
dependency that requires vma_mmu_pagesize() to be defined before
including <linux/hugetlb.h>.
Break this circular dependency by defining the default vma_mmu_pagesize()
as a __weak symbol to be overridden by the powerpc version.

mm/free_pcppages_bulk: prefetch buddy while not holding lock
When a page is freed back to the global pool, its buddy will be checked
to see if it's possible to do a merge. This requires accessing buddy's
page structure and that access could take a long time if it's cache
cold.
This patch adds a prefetch to the to-be-freed page's buddy outside of
zone->lock in hope of accessing buddy's page structure later under
zone->lock will be faster. Since we *always* do buddy merging and check
an order-0 page's buddy to try to merge it when it goes into the main
allocator, the cacheline will always come in, i.e. the prefetched data
will never be unused.
Normally, the number of prefetch will be pcp->batch(default=31 and has
an upper limit of (PAGE_SHIFT * 8)=96 on x86_64) but in the case of
pcp's pages get all drained, it will be pcp->count which has an upper
limit of pcp->high. pcp->high, although has a default value of 186
(pcp->batch=31 * 6), can be changed by user through
/proc/sys/vm/percpu_pagelist_fraction and there is no software upper
limit so could be large, like several thousand. For this reason, only
the first pcp->batch number of page's buddy structure is prefetched to
avoid excessive prefetching.
In the meantime, there are two concerns:
1. the prefetch could potentially evict existing cachelines, especially
for L1D cache since it is not huge
2. there is some additional instruction overhead, namely calculating
buddy pfn twice
For 1, it's hard to say, this microbenchmark though shows good result
but the actual benefit of this patch will be workload/CPU dependant;
For 2, since the calculation is a XOR on two local variables, it's
expected in many cases that cycles spent will be offset by reduced
memory latency later. This is especially true for NUMA machines where
multiple CPUs are contending on zone->lock and the most time consuming
part under zone->lock is the wait of 'struct page' cacheline of the
to-be-freed pages and their buddies.

mm, compaction: drain pcps for zone when kcompactd fails
It's possible for free pages to become stranded on per-cpu pagesets
(pcps) that, if drained, could be merged with buddy pages on the zone's
free area to form large order pages, including up to MAX_ORDER.
Consider a verbose example using the tools/vm/page-types tool at the
beginning of a ZONE_NORMAL ('B' indicates a buddy page and 'S' indicates
a slab page). Pages on pcps do not have any page flags set.

The compaction migration scanner is attempting to defragment this memory
since it is at the beginning of the zone. It has done so quite well,
all movable pages have been migrated. From pfn [0x109955, 0x109fab),
there are only buddy pages and pages without flags set.
These pages may be stranded on pcps that could otherwise allow this
memory to be coalesced if freed back to the zone free area. It is
possible that some of these pages may not be on pcps and that something
has called alloc_pages() and used the memory directly, but we rely on
the absence of __GFP_MOVABLE in these cases to allocate from
MIGATE_UNMOVABLE pageblocks to try to keep these MIGRATE_MOVABLE
pageblocks as free as possible.
These buddy and pcp pages, spanning 1,621 pages, could be coalesced and
allow for three transparent hugepages to be dynamically allocated.
Running the numbers for all such spans on the system, it was found that
there were over 400 such spans of only buddy pages and pages without
flags set at the time this /proc/kpageflags sample was collected.
Without this support, there were _no_ order-9 or order-10 pages free.
When kcompactd fails to defragment memory such that a cc.order page can
be allocated, drain all pcps for the zone back to the buddy allocator so
this stranding cannot occur. Compaction for that order will
subsequently be deferred, which acts as a ratelimit on this drain.

mm: make should_failslab always available for fault injection
should_failslab() is a convenient function to hook into for directed
error injection into kmalloc(). However, it is only available if a
config flag is set.
The following BCC script, for example, fails kmalloc() calls after a
btrfs umount:
from bcc import BPF
prog = r"""
BPF_HASH(flag);
#include <linux/mm.h>
int kprobe__btrfs_close_devices(void *ctx) {
u64 key = 1;

}
int kprobe__should_failslab(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
u64 key = 1;

res = flag.lookup(&key);
if (res != 0) {
bpf_override_return(ctx, -ENOMEM);
}
return 0;
}
"""
b = BPF(text=prog)
while 1:
b.kprobe_poll()
This patch refactors the should_failslab implementation so that the
function is always available for error injection, independent of flags.
This change would be similar in nature to commit
f5490d3ec921 ("block:

THP split makes non-atomic change of tail page flags. This is almost ok
because tail pages are locked and isolated but this breaks recent
changes in page locking: non-atomic operation could clear bit
PG_waiters.
As a result concurrent sequence get_page_unless_zero() -> lock_page()

Fix is trivial: clone flags before unfreezing page reference counter.
This race exists since commit

indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit") while unsave unfreeze
itself was added in commit
8df651c7059e ("thp: cleanup
split_huge_page()").
clear_compound_head() also must be called before unfreezing page
reference because after successful get_page_unless_zero() might follow
put_page() which needs correct compound_head().
And replace page_ref_inc()/page_ref_add() with page_ref_unfreeze() which
is made especially for that and has semantic of smp_store_release().

When page_mapping() is called and the mapping is dereferenced in

same time. This may lead to the following race.

page_cache_free_page(mapping, page)

- inode now has no pages and can be freed including embedded address_space
mapping_unevictable(mapping)
test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE, &mapping->flags);
- we've dereferenced mapping which is potentially already free.
Similar race exists between swap cache freeing and page_evicatable()
too.
The address_space in inode and swap cache will be freed after a RCU
grace period. So the races are fixed via enclosing the page_mapping()
and address_space usage in rcu_read_lock/unlock(). Some comments are
added in code to make it clear what is protected by the RCU read lock.

mm/memory_hotplug: optimize memory hotplug
During memory hotplugging we traverse struct pages three times:
1. memset(0) in sparse_add_one_section()
2. loop in __add_section() to set do: set_page_node(page, nid); and
SetPageReserved(page);
3. loop in memmap_init_zone() to call __init_single_pfn()
This patch removes the first two loops, and leaves only loop 3. All
struct pages are initialized in one place, the same as it is done during
boot.
The benefits:
- We improve memory hotplug performance because we are not evicting the
cache several times and also reduce loop branching overhead.
- Remove condition from hotpath in __init_single_pfn(), that was added
in order to fix the problem that was reported by Bharata in the above
email thread, thus also improve performance during normal boot.
- Make memory hotplug more similar to the boot memory initialization
path because we zero and initialize struct pages only in one
function.
- Simplifies memory hotplug struct page initialization code, and thus
enables future improvements, such as multi-threading the
initialization of struct pages in order to improve hotplug
performance even further on larger machines.

mm/memory_hotplug: don't read nid from struct page during hotplug
During memory hotplugging the probe routine will leave struct pages
uninitialized, the same as it is currently done during boot. Therefore,
we do not want to access the inside of struct pages before
__init_single_page() is called during onlining.
Because during hotplug we know that pages in one memory block belong to
the same numa node, we can skip the checking. We should keep checking
for the boot case.

Instead of checking every page, it is enough to simply check that the

x86/mm/memory_hotplug: determine block size based on the end of boot memory
Memory sections are combined into "memory block" chunks. These chunks
are the units upon which memory can be added and removed.
On x86, the new memory may be added after the end of the boot memory,
therefore, if block size does not align with end of boot memory, memory
hot-plugging/hot-removing can be broken.
Memory sections are combined into "memory block" chunks. These chunks
are the units upon which memory can be added and removed.
On x86 the new memory may be added after the end of the boot memory,
therefore, if block size does not align with end of boot memory, memory
hotplugging/hotremoving can be broken.
Currently, whenever machine is booted with more than 64G the block size
is unconditionally increased to 2G from the base 128M. This is done in
order to reduce number of memory device files in sysfs:
/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX
We must use the largest allowed block size that aligns to the next
address to be able to hotplug the next block of memory.
So, when memory is larger or equal to 64G, we check the end address and
find the largest block size that is still power of two but smaller or
equal to 2G.
Before, the fix:
Run qemu with:
-m 64G,slots=2,maxmem=66G -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=2G
(qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1
Block size [0x80000000] unaligned hotplug range: start 0x1040000000,
size 0x80000000
acpi PNP0C80:00: add_memory failed
acpi PNP0C80:00: acpi_memory_enable_device() error
acpi PNP0C80:00: Enumeration failure
With the fix memory is added successfully as the block size is set to
1G, and therefore aligns with start address 0x1040000000.

mm/memory_hotplug: enforce block size aligned range check
Patch series "optimize memory hotplug", v3.

- Fixes some issues with hotplugging, where boundaries were not
properly checked. And on x86 block size was not properly aligned with

205 if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!pfn_valid(pfn)))
This function loops through every section in the newly added memory
block and verifies that the first pfn is valid, meaning section exists,
has mapping (struct page array), and is online.
The block size on x86 is usually 128M, but when machine is booted with
more than 64G of memory, the block size is changed to 2G: $ cat
/sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes
80000000
or
$ dmesg | grep "block size"
[ 0.086469] x86/mm: Memory block size: 2048MB
During memory hotplug, and hotremove we verify that the range is section
size aligned, but we actually must verify that it is block size aligned,
because that is the proper unit for hotplug operations. See:
Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt
So, when the start_pfn of newly added memory is not block size aligned,
we can get a memory block that has only part of it with properly
populated sections.
In our case the start_pfn starts from the last_pfn (end of physical
memory).
$ dmesg | grep last_pfn
[ 0.000000] e820: last_pfn = 0x1040000 max_arch_pfn = 0x400000000
0x1040000 == 65G, and so is not 2G aligned!
The fix is to enforce that memory that is hotplugged and hotremoved is
block size aligned.
With this fix, running the above sequence yield to the following result:

mm: initialize pages on demand during boot
Deferred page initialization allows the boot cpu to initialize a small
subset of the system's pages early in boot, with other cpus doing the
rest later on.
It is, however, problematic to know how many pages the kernel needs
during boot. Different modules and kernel parameters may change the
requirement, so the boot cpu either initializes too many pages or runs
out of memory.
To fix that, initialize early pages on demand. This ensures the kernel
does the minimum amount of work to initialize pages during boot and
leaves the rest to be divided in the multithreaded initialization path
(deferred_init_memmap).
The on-demand code is permanently disabled using static branching once
deferred pages are initialized. After the static branch is changed to
false, the overhead is up-to two branch-always instructions if the zone
watermark check fails or if rmqueue fails.
Sergey Senozhatsky noticed that while deferred pages currently make
sense only on NUMA machines (we start one thread per latency node),
CONFIG_NUMA is not a requirement for CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT,
so that is also must be addressed in the patch.

mm: disable interrupts while initializing deferred pages
Vlastimil Babka reported about a window issue during which when deferred
pages are initialized, and the current version of on-demand
initialization is finished, allocations may fail. While this is highly
unlikely scenario, since this kind of allocation request must be large,
and must come from interrupt handler, we still want to cover it.
We solve this by initializing deferred pages with interrupts disabled,
and holding node_size_lock spin lock while pages in the node are being
initialized. The on-demand deferred page initialization that comes
later will use the same lock, and thus synchronize with
deferred_init_memmap().
It is unlikely for threads that initialize deferred pages to be
interrupted. They run soon after smp_init(), but before modules are
initialized, and long before user space programs. This is why there is
no adverse effect of having these threads running with interrupts
disabled.
