I've been told that the architected way to determine we are in form 1 affinity mode is by reading the ibm,architecture-vec-5 property which mirrors the layout of the fifth vector of the ibm,client-architecture structure. Eventually we may want to parse the ibm,architecture-vec-5 and create FW_FEATURE_* bits.

Firmware changed the way it represents memory and cpu affinity on POWER7. Unfortunately the old method now caps the topology to work around issues with legacy operating systems. For Linux to get the correct topology we need to use the new form 1 affinity information. We set the form 1 field in the client architecture, and if we see "1" in the ibm,associativity-form property firmware supports form 1 affinity and we should look at the first field in the ibm,associativity-reference-points array. If not we use the second field as we always have. Signed-off-by: NAnton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The macro any_online_node() is prone to producing sparse warnings due to the local symbol 'node'. Since all the in-tree users are really requesting the first online node (the mask argument is either NODE_MASK_ALL or node_online_map) just use the first_online_node macro and remove the any_online_node macro since there are no users.

For some obscure reason, we only set init_bootmem_done after initializing bootmem when NUMA isn't enabled. We even document this next to the declaration of that global in system.h which of course I didn't read before I had to debug why some WIP code wasn't working properly... This patch changes it so that we always set it after bootmem is initialized which should have always been the case... go figure ! Signed-off-by: NBenjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Fix the powerpc NUMA reserve bootmem page selection logic. commit 8f64e1f2 (powerpc: Reserve in bootmem lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodes) changed the logic for how the powerpc LMB reserved regions were converted to bootmen reserved regions. As the folowing discussion reports, the new logic was not correct. mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() goes through each LMB on the system that specifies a reserved area. It searches for active regions that intersect with that LMB and are on the specified node. It attempts to bootmem-reserve only the area where the active region and the reserved LMB intersect. We can not reserve things on other nodes as they may not have bootmem structures allocated, yet. We base the size of the bootmem reservation on two possible things. Normally, we just make the reservation start and stop exactly at the start and end of the LMB. However, the LMB reservations are not aware of NUMA nodes and on occasion a single LMB may cross into several adjacent active regions. Those may even be on different NUMA nodes and will require separate calls to the bootmem reserve functions. So, the bootmem reservation must be trimmed to fit inside the current active region. That's all fine and dandy, but we trim the reservation in a page-aligned fashion. That's bad because we start the reservation at a non-page-aligned address: physbase. The reservation may only span 2 bytes, but that those bytes may span two pfns and cause a reserve_size of 2*PAGE_SIZE. Take the case where you reserve 0x2 bytes at 0x0fff and where the active region ends at 0x1000. You'll jump into that if() statment, but node_ar.end_pfn=0x1 and start_pfn=0x0. You'll end up with a reserve_size=0x1000, and then call reserve_bootmem_node(node, physbase=0xfff, size=0x1000); 0x1000 may not be on the same node as 0xfff. Oops. In almost all the vm code, end_<anything> is not inclusive. If you have an end_pfn of 0x1234, page 0x1234 is not included in the range. Using PFN_UP instead of the (>> >> PAGE_SHIFT) will make this consistent with the other VM code. We also need to do math for the reserved size with physbase instead of start_pfn. node_ar.end_pfn << PAGE_SHIFT is *precisely* the end of the node. However, (start_pfn << PAGE_SHIFT) is *NOT* precisely the beginning of the reserved area. That is, of course, physbase. If we don't use physbase here, the reserve_size can be made too large.

Since we memset() the result in both of the uses here, just make careful_alloc() return a virtual address. Also, add a separate variable to store the physial address that comes back from the lmb_alloc() functions. This makes it less likely that someone will screw it up forgetting to convert before returning since the vaddr is always in a void* and the paddr is always in an unsigned long. I admit this is arbitrary since one of its users needs a paddr and one a vaddr, but it does remove a good number of casts.

careful_allocation() was calling into the bootmem allocator for nodes which had not been fully initialized and caused a previous bug: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/10528/ So, I merged a few broken out loops in do_init_bootmem() to fix it. That changed the code ordering. I think this bug is triggered by having reserved areas for a node which are spanned by another node's contents. In the mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code, we attempt to reserve the area for a node before we have allocated the NODE_DATA() for that nid. We do this since I reordered that loop. I suck. This is causing crashes at bootup on some systems, as reported by Jon Tollefson. This may only present on some systems that have 16GB pages reserved. But, it can probably happen on any system that is trying to reserve large swaths of memory that happen to span other nodes' contents. This commit ensures that we do not touch bootmem for any node which has not been initialized, and also removes a compile warning about an unused variable.

I got a bug report about a distro kernel not booting on a particular machine. It would freeze during boot: > ... > Could not find start_pfn for node 1 > [boot]0015 Setup Done > Built 2 zonelists in Node order, mobility grouping on. Total pages: 123783 > Policy zone: DMA > Kernel command line: > [boot]0020 XICS Init > [boot]0021 XICS Done > PID hash table entries: 4096 (order: 12, 32768 bytes) > clocksource: timebase mult[7d0000] shift[22] registered > Console: colour dummy device 80x25 > console handover: boot [udbg0] -> real [hvc0] > Dentry cache hash table entries: 1048576 (order: 7, 8388608 bytes) > Inode-cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 6, 4194304 bytes) > freeing bootmem node 0 I've reproduced this on 2.6.27.7. It is caused by commit 8f64e1f2 ("powerpc: Reserve in bootmem lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodes"). The problem is that Jon took a loop which was (in pseudocode): for_each_node(nid) NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid); setup_bootmem(nid); reserve_node_bootmem(nid); and broke it up into: for_each_node(nid) NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid); setup_bootmem(nid); for_each_node(nid) reserve_node_bootmem(nid); The issue comes in when the 'careful_alloc()' is called on a node with no memory. It falls back to using bootmem from a previously-initialized node. But, bootmem has not yet been reserved when Jon's patch is applied. It gives back bogus memory (0xc000000000000000) and pukes later in boot. The following patch collapses the loop back together. It also breaks the mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code out into a function and adds some comments. I think a huge part of introducing this bug is because for loop was too long and hard to read. The actual bug fix here is the: + if (end_pfn <= node->node_start_pfn || + start_pfn >= node_end_pfn) + continue; Signed-off-by: NDave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

If there are multiple reserved memory blocks via lmb_reserve() that are contiguous addresses and on different NUMA nodes we are losing track of which address ranges to reserve in bootmem on which node. I discovered this when I recently got to try 16GB huge pages on a system with more then 2 nodes. When scanning the device tree in early boot we call lmb_reserve() with the addresses of the 16G pages that we find so that the memory doesn't get used for something else. For example the addresses for the pages could be 4000000000, 4400000000, 4800000000, 4C00000000, etc - 8 pages, one on each of eight nodes. In the lmb after all the pages have been reserved it will look something like the following: lmb_dump_all: memory.cnt = 0x2 memory.size = 0x3e80000000 memory.region[0x0].base = 0x0 .size = 0x1e80000000 memory.region[0x1].base = 0x4000000000 .size = 0x2000000000 reserved.cnt = 0x5 reserved.size = 0x3e80000000 reserved.region[0x0].base = 0x0 .size = 0x7b5000 reserved.region[0x1].base = 0x2a00000 .size = 0x78c000 reserved.region[0x2].base = 0x328c000 .size = 0x43000 reserved.region[0x3].base = 0xf4e8000 .size = 0xb18000 reserved.region[0x4].base = 0x4000000000 .size = 0x2000000000 The reserved.region[0x4] contains the 16G pages. In arch/powerpc/mm/num.c: do_init_bootmem() we loop through each of the node numbers looking for the reserved regions that belong to the particular node. It is not able to identify region 0x4 as being a part of each of the 8 nodes. It is assuming that a reserved region is only on a single node. This patch takes out the reserved region loop from inside the loop that goes over each node. It looks up the active region containing the start of the reserved region. If it extends past that active region then it adjusts the size and gets the next active region containing it.

Kdump kernel needs to use only those memory regions that it is allowed to use (crashkernel, rtas, tce, etc.). Each of these regions have their own sizes and are currently added under 'linux,usable-memory' property under each memory@xxx node of the device tree. The ibm,dynamic-memory property of ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node (on POWER6) now stores in it the representation for most of the logical memory blocks with the size of each memory block being a constant (lmb_size). If one or more or part of the above mentioned regions lie under one of the lmb from ibm,dynamic-memory property, there is a need to identify those regions within the given lmb. This makes the kernel recognize a new 'linux,drconf-usable-memory' property added by kexec-tools. Each entry in this property is of the form of a count followed by that many (base, size) pairs for the above mentioned regions. The number of cells in the count value is given by the #size-cells property of the root node.

Here's a dumb simple implementation of fake NUMA nodes for PowerPC. Fake NUMA nodes can be specified using the following command line option numa=fake=<node range> node range is of the format <range1>,<range2>,...<rangeN> Each of the rangeX parameters is passed using memparse(). I find the patch useful for fake NUMA emulation on my simple PowerPC machine.

This node could very well be node 0, but in the case that we enable fake NUMA nodes, when we cross node boundaries, we need to set the new node online.

This reverts commit 5c3f5892, basically because it changes behaviour even when no fake NUMA information is specified on the kernel command line. Firstly, it changes the nid, thus destroying the real NUMA information. Secondly, it also changes behaviour in that if a node ends up with no memory in it because of the memory limit, we used to set it online and now we don't. Also, in the non-NUMA case with no fake NUMA information, we do node_set_online once for each LMB now, whereas previously we only did it once. I don't know if that is actually a problem, but it does seem unnecessary. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

There is a bug in the code to parse this property for start addresses over 4GB; we store the start address in an unsigned int, which means we throw away the high bits and add apparently duplicate regions.

Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

For PAPR partitions with large amounts of memory, the firmware has an alternative, more compact representation for the information about the memory in the partition and its NUMA associativity information. This adds the code to the kernel to parse this alternative representation. The other part of this patch is telling the firmware that we can handle the alternative representation. There is however a subtlety here, because the firmware will invoke a reboot if the memory representation we request is different from the representation that firmware is currently using. This is because firmware can't change the representation on the fly. Further, some firmware versions used on POWER5+ machines have a bug where this reboot leaves the machine with an altered value of load-base, which will prevent any kernel booting until it is reset to the normal value (0x4000). Because of this bug, we do NOT set fake_elf.rpanote.new_mem_def = 1, and thus we do not request the new representation on POWER5+ and earlier machines. We do request the new representation on POWER6, which uses the ibm,client-architecture-support call. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Arch-independent zone-sizing is using indices instead of symbolic names to offset within an array related to zones (max_zone_pfns). The unintended impact is that ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL is initialised on powerpc instead of ZONE_DMA and ZONE_HIGHMEM when CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set. As a result, the the machine fails to boot but will boot with CONFIG_HIGHMEM turned off. The following patch properly initialises the max_zone_pfns[] array and uses symbolic names instead of indices in each architecture using arch-independent zone-sizing. Two users have successfully booted their powerpcs with it (one an ibook G4). It has also been boot tested on x86, x86_64, ppc64 and ia64. Please merge for 2.6.19-rc2. Credit to Benjamin Herrenschmidt for identifying the bug and rolling the first fix. Additional credit to Johannes Berg and Andreas Schwab for reporting the problem and testing on powerpc.

Now that get_property() returns a void *, there's no need to cast its return value. Also, treat the return value as const, so we can constify get_property later. powerpc core changes. Signed-off-by: NJeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Change of_node_to_nid() to traverse the device tree, looking for a numa id. Cell uses this to assign ids to SPUs, which are children of the CPU node. Existing users of of_node_to_nid() are altered to use of_node_to_nid_single(), which doesn't do the traversal. Export an attach_sysdev_to_node() function, allowing system devices (eg. SPUs) to link themselves into the numa topology in sysfs.
