      powerpc/pseries: Move CMO code from plapr_wrappers.h to platforms/pseries · 8f272a5d
      Michael Ellerman 提交于
      Currently there's some CMO (Cooperative Memory Overcommit) code, in
      plpar_wrappers.h. Some of it is #ifdef CONFIG_PSERIES and some of it
      isn't. The end result being if a file includes plpar_wrappers.h it won't
      build with CONFIG_PSERIES=n.
      
      Fix it by moving the CMO code into platforms/pseries. The two hcall
      wrappers can just be moved into their only caller, cmm.c, and the
      accessors can go in pseries.h.
      
      Note we need the accessors because cmm.c can be built as a module, so
      there needs to be a split between the built-in code vs the module, and
      that's achieved by using those accessors.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      powerpc: Make the CMM memory hotplug aware · 14b8a76b
      Robert Jennings 提交于
      The Collaborative Memory Manager (CMM) module allocates individual pages
      over time that are not migratable.  On a long running system this can
      severely impact the ability to find enough pages to support a hotplug
      memory remove operation.
      
      This patch adds a memory isolation notifier and a memory hotplug notifier.
      The memory isolation notifier will return the number of pages found in
      the range specified.  This is used to determine if all of the used pages
      in a pageblock are owned by the balloon (or other entities in the notifier
      chain).  The hotplug notifier will free pages in the range which is to be
      removed.  The priority of this hotplug notifier is low so that it will be
      called near last, this helps avoids removing loaned pages in operations
      that fail due to other handlers.
      
      CMM activity will be halted when hotplug remove operations are active and
      resume activity after a delay period to allow the hypervisor time to
      adjust.

      powerpc: Add kdump support to Collaborative Memory Manager · 8be8cf5b
      Brian King 提交于
      When running Active Memory Sharing, the Collaborative Memory Manager (CMM)
      may mark some pages as "loaned" with the hypervisor. Periodically, the
      CMM will query the hypervisor for a loan request, which is a single signed
      value. When kexec'ing into a kdump kernel, the CMM driver in the kdump
      kernel is not aware of the pages the previous kernel had marked as "loaned",
      so the hypervisor and the CMM driver are out of sync. Fix the CMM driver
      to handle this scenario by ignoring requests to decrease the number of loaned
      pages if we don't think we have any pages loaned. Pages that are marked as
      "loaned" which are not in the balloon will automatically get switched to "active"
      the next time we touch the page. This also fixes the case where totalram_pages
      is smaller than min_mem_mb, which can occur during kdump.

      powerpc: Add reboot notifier to Collaborative Memory Manager · fecba962
      Brian King 提交于
      When running Active Memory Sharing, pages can get marked as
      "loaned" with the hypervisor by the CMM driver. This state gets
      cleared by the system firmware when rebooting the partition.
      When using kexec to boot a new kernel, this state never gets
      cleared and the hypervisor and CMM driver can get out of sync
      with respect to the number of pages currently marked "loaned".
      Fix this by adding a reboot notifier to the CMM driver to deflate
      the balloon and mark all pages as active.
