Now the Nobootmem allocator will always try to free memory allocated for
reserved memory regions (free_low_memory_core_early()) without taking
into to account current memblock debugging configuration
(CONFIG_ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK and CONFIG_DEBUG_FS state).
As result if:
- CONFIG_DEBUG_FS defined
- CONFIG_ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK not defined;
- reserved memory regions array have been resized during boot
then:
- memory allocated for reserved memory regions array will be freed to
buddy allocator;
- debug_fs entry "sys/kernel/debug/memblock/reserved" will show garbage
instead of state of memory reservations. like:
0: 0x98393bc0..0x9a393bbf
1: 0xff120000..0xff11ffff
2: 0x00000000..0xffffffff
Hence, do not free memory allocated for reserved memory regions if
defined(CONFIG_DEBUG_FS) && !defined(CONFIG_ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK).

Linux kernel cannot migrate pages used by the kernel. As a result,
hotpluggable memory used by the kernel won't be able to be hot-removed.
To solve this problem, the basic idea is to prevent memblock from
allocating hotpluggable memory for the kernel at early time, and arrange
all hotpluggable memory in ACPI SRAT(System Resource Affinity Table) as
ZONE_MOVABLE when initializing zones.
In the previous patches, we have marked hotpluggable memory regions with
MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG flag in memblock.memory.
In this patch, we make memblock skip these hotpluggable memory regions
in the default top-down allocation function if movable_node boot option
is specified.

In find_hotpluggable_memory, once we find out a memory region which is
hotpluggable, we want to mark them in memblock.memory. So that we could
control memblock allocator not to allocte hotpluggable memory for the
kernel later.
To achieve this goal, we introduce MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG flag to indicate the
hotpluggable memory regions in memblock and a function
memblock_mark_hotplug() to mark hotpluggable memory if we find one.

There is no flag in memblock to describe what type the memory is.
Sometimes, we may use memblock to reserve some memory for special usage.
And we want to know what kind of memory it is. So we need a way to
In hotplug environment, we want to reserve hotpluggable memory so the
kernel won't be able to use it. And when the system is up, we have to
free these hotpluggable memory to buddy. So we need to mark these
memory first.
In order to do so, we need to mark out these special memory in memblock.
In this patch, we introduce a new "flags" member into memblock_region:
struct memblock_region {
phys_addr_t base;
phys_addr_t size;
unsigned long flags; /* This is new. */
#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP
int nid;
#endif
};
This patch does the following things:
1) Add "flags" member to memblock_region.
2) Modify the following APIs' prototype:
memblock_add_region()
memblock_insert_region()
3) Add memblock_reserve_region() to support reserve memory with flags, and keep
memblock_reserve()'s prototype unmodified.
4) Modify other APIs to support flags, but keep their prototype unmodified.
The idea is from Wen Congyang <wency@cn.fujitsu.com> and Liu Jiang <jiang.liu@huawei.com>.

Current memblock APIs don't work on 32 PAE or LPAE extension arches
where the physical memory start address beyond 4GB. The problem was
discussed here [3] where Tejun, Yinghai(thanks) proposed a way forward
with memblock interfaces. Based on the proposal, this series adds
necessary memblock interfaces and convert the core kernel code to use
them. Architectures already converted to NO_BOOTMEM use these new
interfaces and other which still uses bootmem, these new interfaces just
fallback to exiting bootmem APIs.
So no functional change in behavior. In long run, once all the
architectures moves to NO_BOOTMEM, we can get rid of bootmem layer
completely. This is one step to remove the core code dependency with
bootmem and also gives path for architectures to move away from bootmem.
Testing is done on ARM architecture with 32 bit ARM LAPE machines with
normal as well sparse(faked) memory model.
This patch (of 23):
When debugging is enabled (cmdline has "memblock=debug") the memblock
will display upper memory boundary per each allocated/freed memory range
wrongly. For example:
memblock_reserve: [0x0000009e7e8000-0x0000009e7ed000] _memblock_early_alloc_try_nid_nopanic+0xfc/0x12c
The 0x0000009e7ed000 is displayed instead of 0x0000009e7ecfff
Hence, correct this by changing formula used to calculate upper memory
boundary to (u64)base + size - 1 instead of (u64)base + size everywhere
in the debug messages.

The Linux kernel cannot migrate pages used by the kernel. As a result,

ACPI SRAT (System Resource Affinity Table) contains the memory hotplug
info. But before SRAT is parsed, memblock has already started to allocate

In a memory hotplug system, any numa node the kernel resides in should be
unhotpluggable. And for a modern server, each node could have at least
16GB memory. So memory around the kernel image is highly likely
unhotpluggable.
So the basic idea is: Allocate memory from the end of the kernel image and
to the higher memory. Since memory allocation before SRAT is parsed won't
be too much, it could highly likely be in the same node with kernel image.
The current memblock can only allocate memory top-down. So this patch
introduces a new bottom-up allocation mode to allocate memory bottom-up.
And later when we use this allocation direction to allocate memory, we
will limit the start address above the kernel.

[Problem]
The current Linux cannot migrate pages used by the kernel because of the
kernel direct mapping. In Linux kernel space, va = pa + PAGE_OFFSET.
When the pa is changed, we cannot simply update the pagetable and keep the
va unmodified. So the kernel pages are not migratable.
There are also some other issues will cause the kernel pages not
migratable. For example, the physical address may be cached somewhere and
will be used. It is not to update all the caches.
When doing memory hotplug in Linux, we first migrate all the pages in one
memory device somewhere else, and then remove the device. But if pages
are used by the kernel, they are not migratable. As a result, memory used
by the kernel cannot be hot-removed.
Modifying the kernel direct mapping mechanism is too difficult to do. And
it may cause the kernel performance down and unstable. So we use the
following way to do memory hotplug.
[What we are doing]
In Linux, memory in one numa node is divided into several zones. One of
the zones is ZONE_MOVABLE, which the kernel won't use.
In order to implement memory hotplug in Linux, we are going to arrange all
hotpluggable memory in ZONE_MOVABLE so that the kernel won't use these
memory. To do this, we need ACPI's help.
In ACPI, SRAT(System Resource Affinity Table) contains NUMA info. The
memory affinities in SRAT record every memory range in the system, and
also, flags specifying if the memory range is hotpluggable. (Please refer
to ACPI spec 5.0 5.2.16)
With the help of SRAT, we have to do the following two things to achieve our
goal:
1. When doing memory hot-add, allow the users arranging hotpluggable as
ZONE_MOVABLE.
(This has been done by the MOVABLE_NODE functionality in Linux.)
2. when the system is booting, prevent bootmem allocator from allocating
hotpluggable memory for the kernel before the memory initialization
finishes.
The problem 2 is the key problem we are going to solve. But before solving it,
we need some preparation. Please see below.
[Preparation]
Bootloader has to load the kernel image into memory. And this memory must
be unhotpluggable. We cannot prevent this anyway. So in a memory hotplug
system, we can assume any node the kernel resides in is not hotpluggable.
Before SRAT is parsed, we don't know which memory ranges are hotpluggable.
But memblock has already started to work. In the current kernel,
memblock allocates the following memory before SRAT is parsed:
setup_arch()
|->memblock_x86_fill() /* memblock is ready */
|......
|->early_reserve_e820_mpc_new() /* allocate memory under 1MB */
|->reserve_real_mode() /* allocate memory under 1MB */
|->init_mem_mapping() /* allocate page tables, about 2MB to map 1GB memory */
|->dma_contiguous_reserve() /* specified by user, should be low */
|->setup_log_buf() /* specified by user, several mega bytes */
|->relocate_initrd() /* could be large, but will be freed after boot, should reorder */
|->acpi_initrd_override() /* several mega bytes */
|->reserve_crashkernel() /* could be large, should reorder */
|......
|->initmem_init() /* Parse SRAT */
According to Tejun's advice, before SRAT is parsed, we should try our best
to allocate memory near the kernel image. Since the whole node the kernel
resides in won't be hotpluggable, and for a modern server, a node may have
at least 16GB memory, allocating several mega bytes memory around the
kernel image won't cross to hotpluggable memory.
[About this patchset]
So this patchset is the preparation for the problem 2 that we want to
solve. It does the following:
1. Make memblock be able to allocate memory bottom up.
1) Keep all the memblock APIs' prototype unmodified.
2) When the direction is bottom up, keep the start address greater than the
end of kernel image.
2. Improve init_mem_mapping() to support allocate page tables in
bottom up direction.
3. Introduce "movable_node" boot option to enable and disable this
functionality.
This patch (of 6):
Create a new function __memblock_find_range_top_down to factor out of
top-down allocation from memblock_find_in_range_node. This is a
preparation because we will introduce a new bottom-up allocation mode in
the following patch.

This came to light when calling memblock allocator from arc port (for
copying flattended DT). If a "0" alignment is passed, the allocator
round_up() call incorrectly rounds up the size to 0.
round_up(num, alignto) => ((num - 1) | (alignto -1)) + 1
While the obvious allocation failure causes kernel to panic, it is better
to warn the caller to fix the code.
Tejun suggested that instead of BUG_ON(!align) - which might be
ineffective due to pending console init and such, it is better to WARN_ON,
and continue the boot with a reasonable default align.
Caller passing @size need not be handled similarly as the subsequent
panic will indicate that anyhow.

Don Morris reproduced on a HP z620 workstation, and bisected it to
commit e8d1955258 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock
is ready")
It turns out movable_map has some problems, and it breaks several things
1. numa_init is called several times, NOT just for srat. so those
nodes_clear(numa_nodes_parsed)
memset(&numa_meminfo, 0, sizeof(numa_meminfo))
can not be just removed. Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy.
and make fall back path working.
2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat.
a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64.
b. for (i = 0; i < MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++)
set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE)
still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat.
it should be moved before that....
c. it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved
early before override from INITRD is settled.
3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title,
but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not
pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should
be routed via tip/x86/mm.
4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram:
a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed?
b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable...
c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G
anymore.
d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore.
e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is
not good.
If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and
vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that
node.
We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not
be fixed.
So just remove that offending commit and related ones including:
f7210e6c4a ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to
protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().")
01a178a94e ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from

34b71f1e04 ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter")
4d59a75125 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node")
Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table
and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0. Also
need to find way to put other kernel used ram to local node ram.

The memmove span covers from (next+1) to the end of the array, and the
index of next is (i+1), so the index of (next+1) is (i+2). So the size
of remaining array elements is (type->cnt - (i + 2)).
Since the remaining elements of the memblock array are move forward by
one element and there is only one additional element caused by this bug.
So there won't be any write overflow here but read overflow. It may
read one more element out of the array address if the array happens to
be full. Commonly it doesn't matter at all but if the array happens to
be located at the end a memblock, it may cause a invalid read operation
for the physical address doesn't exist.
There are 2 *happens to be* here, so I think the probability is quite
low, I don't know if any guy is haunted by this bug before.
Mostly I think it's user-invisible.

__alloc_memory_core_early() asks memblock for a range of memory then try
to reserve it. If the reserved region array lacks space for the new
range, memblock_double_array() is called to allocate more space for the
array. If memblock is used to allocate memory for the new array it can
end up using a range that overlaps with the range originally allocated in
__alloc_memory_core_early(), leading to possible data corruption.
With this patch memblock_double_array() now calls memblock_find_in_range()
with a narrowed candidate range (in cases where the reserved.regions array
is being doubled) so any memory allocated will not overlap with the
original range that was being reserved. The range is narrowed by passing
in the starting address and size of the previously allocated range. Then
the range above the ending address is searched and if a candidate is not
found, the range below the starting address is searched.

whether the region specified is a subset of a memory bank while
the latter returns whether the region specified intersects with
reserved memory.

make the implementation the same between them and to clarify the
purpose of the functions.

The overall memblock has been organized into the memory regions and
reserved regions. Initially, the memory regions and reserved regions are
stored in the predetermined arrays of "struct memblock _region". It's
possible for the arrays to be enlarged when we have newly added regions,
but no free space left there. The policy here is to create double-sized
array either by slab allocator or memblock allocator. Unfortunately, we
didn't free the old array, which might be allocated through slab allocator
before. That would cause memory leak.
The patch introduces 2 variables to trace where (slab or memblock) the
memory and reserved regions come from. The memory for the memory or
reserved regions will be deallocated by kfree() if that was allocated by
slab allocator. Thus to fix the memory leak issue.

memblock allocator aligns @size to @align to reduce the amount
of fragmentation. Commit:
7bd0b0f0da ("memblock: Reimplement memblock allocation using reverse free area iterator")
Broke it by incorrectly relocating @size aligning to
memblock_find_in_range_node(). As the aligned size is not
propagated back to memblock_alloc_base_nid(), the actually
reserved size isn't aligned.
While this increases memory use for memblock reserved array,
this shouldn't cause any critical failure; however, it seems
that the size aligning was hiding a use-beyond-allocation bug in
sparc64 and losing the aligning causes boot failure.
The underlying problem is currently being debugged but this is a
proper fix in itself, it's already pretty late in -rc cycle for
boot failures and reverting the change for debugging isn't
difficult. Restore the size aligning moving it to
memblock_alloc_base_nid().

7bd0b0f0da ("memblock: Reimplement memblock allocation using
reverse free area iterator") implemented a simple top-down
allocator using a reverse memblock iterator. To avoid underflow
in the allocator loop, it simply raised the lower boundary to
the requested size under the assumption that requested size
would be far smaller than available memblocks.
This causes early page table allocation failure under certain
configurations in Xen. Fix it by checking for underflow directly
instead of bumping up lower bound.

Newly added memblocks have MAX_NUMNODES as nid. Arch can then call

merging and node affine allocations w.r.t. node information.
When MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is enabled, early_node_map[], related data

This re-implements memblock_add_region() such that insertion is done
in two steps - all non-overlapping portions of new area are inserted
as separate regions first and then memblock_merge_regions() scan and
merge all neighbouring compatible regions.
This makes addition logic simpler and more versatile and enables

Node affine memblock allocation logic is currently implemented across
memblock_alloc_nid() and memblock_alloc_nid_region(). This
reorganizes it such that it resembles that of non-NUMA allocation API.
Area finding is collected and moved into new exported function
memblock_find_in_range_node() which is symmetrical to non-NUMA
counterpart - it handles @start/@end and understands ANYWHERE and
ACCESSIBLE. memblock_alloc_nid() now simply calls
memblock_find_in_range_node() and reserves the returned area.
This makes memblock_alloc[_try]_nid() observe ACCESSIBLE limit on node
affine allocations too (again, this doesn't make any difference for
the current sole user - sparc64).

memblock_nid_range() is used to implement memblock_[try_]alloc_nid().
The generic version determines the range by walking early_node_map
with for_each_mem_pfn_range(). The generic version is defined __weak
to allow arch override.
Currently, only sparc overrides it; however, with the previous update
to the generic implementation, there isn't much to be gained with arch
override. Sparc would behave exactly the same with the generic
implementation.
This patch disallows arch override for memblock_nid_range() and make

Given an address range, memblock_nid_range() determines the node the
start of the range belongs to and upto where the range stays in the
same node.
It's implemented by calling get_pfn_range_for_nid(), which determines
min and max pfns for a given node, for each node and testing whether
start address falls in there. This is not only inefficient but also
incorrect when nodes interleave as min-max ranges for nodes overlap.
This patch reimplements memblock_nid_range() using
for_each_mem_pfn_range(). It's simpler, walks the mem ranges once and
can find the exact range the start address falls in.

After node affine allocation fails, memblock_alloc_try_nid() calls
memblock_alloc_base() with @max_addr set to MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE.
This is inconsistent with memblock_alloc() and what the function's
sole user - sparc/mm/init_64 - expects, although it doesn't make any
difference as sparc64 doesn't have highmem and ACCESSIBLE equals
ANYWHERE.
This patch makes memblock_alloc_try_nid() use ACCESSIBLE instead of
ANYWHERE. This isn't complete as node affine allocation doesn't
consider memblock.current_limit. It will be handled with future
changes.

Currently memblock_reserve() or memblock_free() don't handle overlaps of
any kind. There is some special casing for coalescing exactly adjacent
regions but that's about it.
This is annoying because typically memblock_reserve() is used to mark
regions passed by the firmware as reserved and we all know how much we can
trust our firmwares...
Also, with the current code, if we do something it doesn't handle right
such as trying to memblock_reserve() a large range spanning multiple
existing smaller reserved regions for example, or doing overlapping
reservations, it can silently corrupt the internal region array, causing
odd errors much later on, such as allocations returning reserved regions
etc...
This patch rewrites the underlying functions that add or remove a region
to the arrays. The new code is a lot more robust as it fully handles
overlapping regions. It's also, imho, simpler than the previous
implementation.
In addition, while doing so, I found a bug where if we fail to double the
array while adding a region, we would remove the last region of the array
rather than the region we just allocated. This fixes it too.

memblock_is_region_memory() uses reserved memblocks to search for the

I encountered the problem with OMAP's framebuffer ram allocation.
Normally the ram is allocated dynamically, and this function is not

to the kernel (to retain the boot image), this function is used to check
the validity of the kernel parameters for the framebuffer ram area.

This implementation is inefficient due to our main algorithm and

it subsequently, possibly using arch compile options to chose a

This introduce memblock.current_limit which is used to limit allocations
from memblock_alloc() or memblock_alloc_base(..., MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE).
The old MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE changes value from 0 to ~(u64)0 and can still
be used with memblock_alloc_base() to allocate really anywhere.
It is -no-longer- cropped to MEMBLOCK_REAL_LIMIT which disappears.
Note to archs: I'm leaving the default limit to MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE. I
strongly recommend that you ensure that you set an appropriate limit
during boot in order to guarantee that an memblock_alloc() at any time
results in something that is accessible with a simple __va().
The reason is that a subsequent patch will introduce the ability for
the array to resize itself by reallocating itself. The MEMBLOCK core will
