      mem-hotplug: reset node managed pages when hot-adding a new pgdat · f784a3f1
      Tang Chen 提交于
      In free_area_init_core(), zone->managed_pages is set to an approximate
      value for lowmem, and will be adjusted when the bootmem allocator frees
      pages into the buddy system.
      
      But free_area_init_core() is also called by hotadd_new_pgdat() when
      hot-adding memory.  As a result, zone->managed_pages of the newly added
      node's pgdat is set to an approximate value in the very beginning.
      
      Even if the memory on that node has node been onlined,
      /sys/device/system/node/nodeXXX/meminfo has wrong value:
      
        hot-add node2 (memory not onlined)
        cat /sys/device/system/node/node2/meminfo
        Node 2 MemTotal:       33554432 kB
        Node 2 MemFree:               0 kB
        Node 2 MemUsed:        33554432 kB
        Node 2 Active:                0 kB
      
      This patch fixes this problem by reset node managed pages to 0 after
      hot-adding a new node.
      
      1. Move reset_managed_pages_done from reset_node_managed_pages() to
         reset_all_zones_managed_pages()
      2. Make reset_node_managed_pages() non-static
      3. Call reset_node_managed_pages() in hotadd_new_pgdat() after pgdat
         is initialized

      mm/memblock: switch to use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of MAX_NUMNODES · b1154233
      Grygorii Strashko 提交于
      It's recommended to use NUMA_NO_NODE everywhere to select "process any
      node" behavior or to indicate that "no node id specified".
      
      Hence, update __next_free_mem_range*() API's to accept both NUMA_NO_NODE
      and MAX_NUMNODES, but emit warning once on MAX_NUMNODES, and correct
      corresponding API's documentation to describe new behavior.  Also,
      update other memblock/nobootmem APIs where MAX_NUMNODES is used
      dirrectly.

      mm: accurately calculate zone->managed_pages for highmem zones · 7b4b2a0d
      Jiang Liu 提交于
      Commit "mm: introduce new field 'managed_pages' to struct zone" assumes
      that all highmem pages will be freed into the buddy system by function
      mem_init().  But that's not always true, some architectures may reserve
      some highmem pages during boot.  For example PPC may allocate highmem
      pages for giagant HugeTLB pages, and several architectures have code to
      check PageReserved flag to exclude highmem pages allocated during boot
      when freeing highmem pages into the buddy system.
      
      So treat highmem pages in the same way as normal pages, that is to:
      1) reset zone->managed_pages to zero in mem_init().
      2) recalculate managed_pages when freeing pages into the buddy system.

      mm: introduce new field "managed_pages" to struct zone · 9feedc9d
      Jiang Liu 提交于
      Currently a zone's present_pages is calcuated as below, which is
      inaccurate and may cause trouble to memory hotplug.
      
      	spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve.
      
      During fixing bugs caused by inaccurate zone->present_pages, we found
      zone->present_pages has been abused.  The field zone->present_pages may
      have different meanings in different contexts:
      
      1) pages existing in a zone.
      2) pages managed by the buddy system.
      
      For more discussions about the issue, please refer to:
        http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/5/866
        https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1346751/
      
      This patchset tries to introduce a new field named "managed_pages" to
      struct zone, which counts "pages managed by the buddy system".  And revert
      zone->present_pages to count "physical pages existing in a zone", which
      also keep in consistence with pgdat->node_present_pages.
      
      We will set an initial value for zone->managed_pages in function
      free_area_init_core() and will adjust it later if the initial value is
      inaccurate.
      
      For DMA/normal zones, the initial value is set to:
      
      	(spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve)
      
      Later zone->managed_pages will be adjusted to the accurate value when the
      bootmem allocator frees all free pages to the buddy system in function
      free_all_bootmem_node() and free_all_bootmem().
      
      The bootmem allocator doesn't touch highmem pages, so highmem zones'
      managed_pages is set to the accurate value "spanned_pages - absent_pages"
      in function free_area_init_core() and won't be updated anymore.
      
      This patch also adds a new field "managed_pages" to /proc/zoneinfo
      and sysrq showmem.

      Andrew Morton 提交于
      Revert commit 7f1290f2 ("mm: fix-up zone present pages")
      
      That patch tried to fix a issue when calculating zone->present_pages,
      but it caused a regression on 32bit systems with HIGHMEM.  With that
      change, reset_zone_present_pages() resets all zone->present_pages to
      zero, and fixup_zone_present_pages() is called to recalculate
      zone->present_pages when the boot allocator frees core memory pages into
      buddy allocator.  Because highmem pages are not freed by bootmem
      allocator, all highmem zones' present_pages becomes zero.
      
      Various options for improving the situation are being discussed but for
      now, let's return to the 3.6 code.

      mm: fix-up zone present pages · 7f1290f2
      Jianguo Wu 提交于
      I think zone->present_pages indicates pages that buddy system can management,
      it should be:
      
      	zone->present_pages = spanned pages - absent pages - bootmem pages,
      
      but is now:
      	zone->present_pages = spanned pages - absent pages - memmap pages.
      
      spanned pages: total size, including holes.
      absent pages: holes.
      bootmem pages: pages used in system boot, managed by bootmem allocator.
      memmap pages: pages used by page structs.
      
      This may cause zone->present_pages less than it should be.  For example,
      numa node 1 has ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE, it's memmap and other
      bootmem will be allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE, so ZONE_NORMAL's
      present_pages should be spanned pages - absent pages, but now it also
      minus memmap pages(free_area_init_core), which are actually allocated from
      ZONE_MOVABLE.  When offlining all memory of a zone, this will cause
      zone->present_pages less than 0, because present_pages is unsigned long
      type, it is actually a very large integer, it indirectly caused
      zone->watermark[WMARK_MIN] becomes a large
      integer(setup_per_zone_wmarks()), than cause totalreserve_pages become a
      large integer(calculate_totalreserve_pages()), and finally cause memory
      allocating failure when fork process(__vm_enough_memory()).
      
      [root@localhost ~]# dmesg
      -bash: fork: Cannot allocate memory
      
      I think the bug described in
      
        http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=134502182714186&w=2
      
      is also caused by wrong zone present pages.
      
      This patch intends to fix-up zone->present_pages when memory are freed to
      buddy system on x86_64 and IA64 platforms.

      mm: sparse: fix usemap allocation above node descriptor section · 99ab7b19
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      After commit f5bf18fa ("bootmem/sparsemem: remove limit constraint
      in alloc_bootmem_section"), usemap allocations may easily be placed
      outside the optimal section that holds the node descriptor, even if
      there is space available in that section.  This results in unnecessary
      hotplug dependencies that need to have the node unplugged before the
      section holding the usemap.
      
      The reason is that the bootmem allocator doesn't guarantee a linear
      search starting from the passed allocation goal but may start out at a
      much higher address absent an upper limit.
      
      Fix this by trying the allocation with the limit at the section end,
      then retry without if that fails.  This keeps the fix from f5bf18fa
      of not panicking if the allocation does not fit in the section, but
      still makes sure to try to stay within the section at first.

      mm: nobootmem: Correct alloc_bootmem semantics. · 4e1c2b28
      David Miller 提交于
      The comments above __alloc_bootmem_node() claim that the code will
      first try the allocation using 'goal' and if that fails it will
      try again but with the 'goal' requirement dropped.
      
      Unfortunately, this is not what the code does, so fix it to do so.
      
      This is important for nobootmem conversions to architectures such
      as sparc where MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is infinity.
      
      On such architectures all of the allocations done by generic spots,
      such as the sparse-vmemmap implementation, will pass in:
      
      	__pa(MAX_DMA_ADDRESS)
      
      as the goal, and with the limit given as "-1" this will always fail
      unless we add the appropriate fallback logic here.

      crash_dump: export is_kdump_kernel to modules, consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn
      
      The Xen PV drivers in a crashed HVM guest can not connect to the dom0
      backend drivers because both frontend and backend drivers are still in
      connected state.  To run the connection reset function only in case of a
      crashdump, the is_kdump_kernel() function needs to be available for the PV
      driver modules.
      
      Consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn into
      kernel/crash_dump.c Also export elfcorehdr_addr to make is_kdump_kernel()
      usable for modules.
      
      Leave 'elfcorehdr' as early_param().  This changes powerpc from __setup()
      to early_param().  It adds an address range check from x86 also on ia64
      and powerpc.
