virtio-ccw has deadlock issues with reading the config space inside the
interrupt context, so we tweak the virtballoon_changed implementation
by moving the config read operations into the related workqueue contexts.
The config_read_bitmap is used as a flag to the workqueue callbacks
about the related config fields that need to be read.
The cmd_id_received is also renamed to cmd_id_received_cache, and
the value should be obtained via virtio_balloon_cmd_id_received.

Negotiation of the VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_FREE_PAGE_HINT feature indicates the
support of reporting hints of guest free pages to host via virtio-balloon.
Currenlty, only free page blocks of MAX_ORDER - 1 are reported. They are
obtained one by one from the mm free list via the regular allocation
function.
Host requests the guest to report free page hints by sending a new cmd id
to the guest via the free_page_report_cmd_id configuration register. When
the guest starts to report, it first sends a start cmd to host via the
free page vq, which acks to host the cmd id received. When the guest
finishes reporting free pages, a stop cmd is sent to host via the vq.
Host may also send a stop cmd id to the guest to stop the reporting.
VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_STOP: Host sends this cmd to stop the guest
reporting.
VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_DONE: Host sends this cmd to tell the guest that
the reported pages are ready to be freed.
Why does the guest free the reported pages when host tells it is ready to
free?
This is because freeing pages appears to be expensive for live migration.
free_pages() dirties memory very quickly and makes the live migraion not
converge in some cases. So it is good to delay the free_page operation
when the migration is done, and host sends a command to guest about that.
Why do we need the new VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_DONE, instead of reusing
VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_STOP?
This is because live migration is usually done in several rounds. At the
end of each round, host needs to send a VIRTIO_BALLOON_CMD_ID_STOP cmd to
the guest to stop (or say pause) the reporting. The guest resumes the
reporting when it receives a new command id at the beginning of the next
round. So we need a new cmd id to distinguish between "stop reporting" and
"ready to free the reported pages".

The OOM notifier is getting deprecated to use for the reasons:
- As a callout from the oom context, it is too subtle and easy to
generate bugs and corner cases which are hard to track;
- It is called too late (after the reclaiming has been performed).
Drivers with large amuont of reclaimable memory is expected to
release them at an early stage of memory pressure;
- The notifier callback isn't aware of oom contrains;
Link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/12/314
This patch replaces the virtio-balloon oom notifier with a shrinker
to release balloon pages on memory pressure. The balloon pages are
given back to mm adaptively by returning the number of pages that the
reclaimer is asking for (i.e. sc->nr_to_scan).
Currently the max possible value of sc->nr_to_scan passed to the balloon
shrinker is SHRINK_BATCH, which is 128. This is smaller than the
limitation that only VIRTIO_BALLOON_ARRAY_PFNS_MAX (256) pages can be
returned via one invocation of leak_balloon. But this patch still
considers the case that SHRINK_BATCH or shrinker->batch could be changed
to a value larger than VIRTIO_BALLOON_ARRAY_PFNS_MAX, which will need to
do multiple invocations of leak_balloon.
Historically, the feature VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM has been used
to release balloon pages on OOM. We continue to use this feature bit for
the shrinker, so the shrinker is only registered when this feature bit
has been negotiated with host.

fill_balloon doing memory allocations under balloon_lock
can cause a deadlock when leak_balloon is called from
virtballoon_oom_notify and tries to take same lock.
To fix, split page allocation and enqueue and do allocations outside the lock.
Here's a detailed analysis of the deadlock by Tetsuo Handa:
In leak_balloon(), mutex_lock(&vb->balloon_lock) is called in order to
serialize against fill_balloon(). But in fill_balloon(),
alloc_page(GFP_HIGHUSER[_MOVABLE] | __GFP_NOMEMALLOC | __GFP_NORETRY) is
called with vb->balloon_lock mutex held. Since GFP_HIGHUSER[_MOVABLE]
implies __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM | __GFP_IO | __GFP_FS, despite __GFP_NORETRY
is specified, this allocation attempt might indirectly depend on somebody
else's __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM memory allocation. And such indirect
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM memory allocation might call leak_balloon() via
virtballoon_oom_notify() via blocking_notifier_call_chain() callback via
out_of_memory() when it reached __alloc_pages_may_oom() and held oom_lock
mutex. Since vb->balloon_lock mutex is already held by fill_balloon(), it
will cause OOM lockup.

update_balloon_stats has to update exactly VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_NR counters
in order to send valid stats to the host. This commit fixes it by having
update_balloon_stats return the actual number of counters, and its
callers use it when pushing buffers to the stats virtqueue.
Note that it is still out of spec to change the number of counters
at run-time. "Driver MUST supply the same subset of statistics in all
buffers submitted to the statsq."

When init_vqs runs, virtio_balloon.stats is either uninitialized or
contains stale values. The host updates its state with garbage data
because it has no way of knowing that this is just a marker buffer
used for signaling.
This patch updates the stats before pushing the initial buffer.
Alternative fixes:
* Push an empty buffer in init_vqs. Not easily done with the current
virtio implementation and violates the spec "Driver MUST supply the
same subset of statistics in all buffers submitted to the statsq".
* Push a buffer with invalid tags in init_vqs. Violates the same
spec clause, plus "invalid tag" is not really defined.
Note: the spec says:
When using the legacy interface, the device SHOULD ignore all values in
the first buffer in the statsq supplied by the driver after device
initialization. Note: Historically, drivers supplied an uninitialized
buffer in the first buffer.
Unfortunately QEMU does not seem to implement the recommendation
even for the legacy interface.

The following commit 'fad7b7b27b6a (virtio_balloon: Use a workqueue
instead of "vballoon" kthread)' has added a regression. Original code with
kthread starts the thread inside probe and checks the necessity to update
balloon inside the thread immediately.
Nowadays the code behaves differently. Work is queued only on the first
command from the host after the negotiation. Thus there is a window
especially at the guest startup or the module reloading when the balloon
size is not updated until the notification from the host.
This patch adds balloon size check at the end of the probe to match
original behaviour.

The balloon has a special mechanism that is subscribed to the oom
notification which leads to deflation for a fixed number of pages.
The number is always fixed even when the balloon is fully deflated.
But leak_balloon did not expect that the pages to deflate will be more

So, the simplest solution would be to check that the number of releases
pages is less or equal to the number taken pages.

It was caused by non-lru page migration which needs compaction.h but
compaction.h doesn't include any header to be standalone.
I think proper header for non-lru page migration is migrate.h rather
than compaction.h because migrate.h has already headers needed to work
non-lru page migration indirectly like isolate_mode_t, migrate_mode
MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS.

Now, VM has a feature to migrate non-lru movable pages so balloon
doesn't need custom migration hooks in migrate.c and compaction.c.
Instead, this patch implements the page->mapping->a_ops->
{isolate|migrate|putback} functions.
With that, we could remove hooks for ballooning in general migration
functions and make balloon compaction simple.

The virtio balloon statistics are not updated when the balloon
is being resized. But it seems that both tasks could be done
in parallel.
stats_handle_request() updates the statistics in the balloon
structure and then communicates with the host.
update_balloon_stats() calls all_vm_events() that just reads
some per-CPU variables. The values might change during and
after the call but it is expected and happens even without
this patch.
update_balloon_stats() also calls si_meminfo(). It is a bit
more complex function. It too just reads some variables and
looks lock-less safe. In each case, it seems to be called
lock-less on several similar locations, e.g. from post_status()
in dm_thread_func(), or from vmballoon_send_get_target().
The communication with the host is done via a separate virtqueue,
see vb->stats_vq vs. vb->inflate_vq and vb->deflate_vq. Therefore
it could be used in parallel with fill_balloon() and leak_balloon().
This patch splits the existing work into two pieces. One is for
updating the balloon stats. The other is for resizing of the balloon.
It seems that they can be proceed in parallel without any
extra locking.

This patch moves the deferred work from the "vballoon" kthread into a
system freezable workqueue.
We do not need to maintain and run a dedicated kthread. Also the event
driven workqueues API makes the logic much easier. Especially, we do
not longer need an own wait queue, wait function, and freeze point.
The conversion is pretty straightforward. One cycle of the main loop
is put into a work. The work is queued instead of waking the kthread.
fill_balloon() and leak_balloon() have a limit for the amount of modified
pages. The work re-queues itself when necessary. For this, we make
fill_balloon() to return the number of really modified pages.
Note that leak_balloon() already did this.
virtballoon_restore() queues the work only when really needed.
The only complication is that we need to prevent queuing the work
when the balloon is being removed. It was easier before because the
kthread simply removed itself from the wait queue. We need an
extra boolean and spin lock now.
My initial idea was to use a dedicated workqueue. Michael S. Tsirkin
suggested using a system one. Tejun Heo confirmed that the system
workqueue has a pretty high concurrency level (256) by default.
Therefore we need not be afraid of too long blocking.

checkpatch.pl wants arrays of strings declared as follows:

Currently the find_vqs() function takes a const char *names[] argument

This patch adjusts the find_vqs() prototype and updates all virtio

During my compaction-related stuff, I encountered a bug
with ballooning.
With repeated inflating and deflating cycle, guest memory(
ie, cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal) is decreased and
couldn't be recovered.
The reason is balloon_lock doesn't cover release_pages_balloon
so struct virtio_balloon fields could be overwritten by race
of fill_balloon(e,g, vb->*pfns could be critical).
This patch fixes it in my test.

Balloon device is frequently used as a mean of cooperative memory control
in between guest and host to manage memory overcommitment. This is the
typical case for any hosting workload when KVM guest is provided for
end-user.
Though there is a problem in this setup. The end-user and hosting provider
have signed SLA agreement in which some amount of memory is guaranted for
the guest. The good thing is that this memory will be given to the guest
when the guest will really need it (f.e. with OOM in guest and with
VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM configuration flag set). The bad thing
is that end-user does not know this.
Balloon by default reduce the amount of memory exposed to the end-user
each time when the page is stolen from guest or returned back by using
adjust_managed_page_count and thus /proc/meminfo shows reduced amount
of memory.
Fortunately the solution is simple, we should just avoid to call
adjust_managed_page_count with VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_DEFLATE_ON_OOM set.

Excessive virtio_balloon inflation can cause invocation of OOM-killer,
when Linux is under severe memory pressure. Various mechanisms are
responsible for correct virtio_balloon memory management. Nevertheless
it is often the case that these control tools does not have enough time
to react on fast changing memory load. As a result OS runs out of memory
and invokes OOM-killer. The balancing of memory by use of the virtio
balloon should not cause the termination of processes while there are
pages in the balloon. Now there is no way for virtio balloon driver to
free some memory at the last moment before some process will be get
killed by OOM-killer.
This does not provide a security breach as balloon itself is running
inside guest OS and is working in the cooperation with the host. Thus
some improvements from guest side should be considered as normal.
To solve the problem, introduce a virtio_balloon callback which is
expected to be called from the oom notifier call chain in out_of_memory()
function. If virtio balloon could release some memory, it will make
the system to return and retry the allocation that forced the out of
memory killer to run.
Allocate virtio feature bit for this: it is not set by default,
the the guest will not deflate virtio balloon on OOM without explicit
permission from host.

Sasha Levin reported KASAN splash inside isolate_migratepages_range().
Problem is in the function __is_movable_balloon_page() which tests
AS_BALLOON_MAP in page->mapping->flags. This function has no protection
against anonymous pages. As result it tried to check address space flags
inside struct anon_vma.
Further investigation shows more problems in current implementation:
* Special branch in __unmap_and_move() never works:
balloon_page_movable() checks page flags and page_count. In
__unmap_and_move() page is locked, reference counter is elevated, thus
balloon_page_movable() always fails. As a result execution goes to the
normal migration path. virtballoon_migratepage() returns
MIGRATEPAGE_BALLOON_SUCCESS instead of MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS,
move_to_new_page() thinks this is an error code and assigns
newpage->mapping to NULL. Newly migrated page lose connectivity with
balloon an all ability for further migration.
* lru_lock erroneously required in isolate_migratepages_range() for
isolation ballooned page. This function releases lru_lock periodically,
this makes migration mostly impossible for some pages.
* balloon_page_dequeue have a tight race with balloon_page_isolate:
balloon_page_isolate could be executed in parallel with dequeue between
picking page from list and locking page_lock. Race is rare because they
use trylock_page() for locking.
This patch fixes all of them.
Instead of fake mapping with special flag this patch uses special state of
page->_mapcount: PAGE_BALLOON_MAPCOUNT_VALUE = -256. Buddy allocator uses
PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE = -128 for similar purpose. Storing mark
directly in struct page makes everything safer and easier.
PagePrivate is used to mark pages present in page list (i.e. not
isolated, like PageLRU for normal pages). It replaces special rules for
reference counter and makes balloon migration similar to migration of
normal pages. This flag is protected by page_lock together with link to
the balloon device.
