memblock_is_region_memory() invoke memblock_search() to see whether the base address is in the memory region. If it fails, idx would be -1. Then, it returns 0. If the memblock_search() returns a valid index, it means the base address is guaranteed to be in the range memblock.memory.regions[idx]. Because of this, it is not necessary to check the base again. This patch removes the check on "base".

When using a sparse memory model memmap_init_zone() when invoked with the MEMMAP_EARLY context will skip over pages which aren't valid - ie. which aren't in a populated region of the sparse memory map. However if the memory map is extremely sparse then it can spend a long time linearly checking each PFN in a large non-populated region of the memory map & skipping it in turn. When CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is enabled, we have sufficient information to quickly discover the next valid PFN given an invalid one by searching through the list of memory regions & skipping forwards to the first PFN covered by the memory region to the right of the non-populated region. Implement this in order to speed up memmap_init_zone() for systems with extremely sparse memory maps. James said "I have tested this patch on a virtual model of a Samurai CPU with a sparse memory map. The kernel boot time drops from 109 to 62 seconds.

Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a physical address to a virtual one using __va(). However, such physical addresses may sometimes be located in highmem and using __va() is incorrect, leading to inconsistent object tracking in kmemleak. The following functions have been added to the kmemleak API and they take a physical address as the object pointer. They only perform the corresponding action if the address has a lowmem mapping: kmemleak_alloc_phys kmemleak_free_part_phys kmemleak_not_leak_phys kmemleak_ignore_phys The affected calling places have been updated to use the new kmemleak API.

由 Dennis Chen 提交于
In some cases, memblock is queried by kernel to determine whether a specified address is RAM or not. For example, the ACPI core needs this information to determine which attributes to use when mapping ACPI regions(acpi_os_ioremap). Use of incorrect memory types can result in faults, data corruption, or other issues. Removing memory with memblock_enforce_memory_limit() throws away this information, and so a kernel booted with 'mem=' may suffer from the issues described above. To avoid this, we need to keep those NOMAP regions instead of removing all above the limit, which preserves the information we need while preventing other use of those regions. This patch adds new infrastructure to retain all NOMAP memblock regions while removing others, to cater for this.

memblock_add_region() and memblock_reserve_region() do nothing specific before the call of memblock_add_range(), only print debug output. We can do the same in memblock_add() and memblock_reserve() since both memblock_add_region() and memblock_reserve_region() are not used by anybody outside of memblock.c and memblock_{add,reserve}() have the same set of flags and nids. Since memblock_add_region() and memblock_reserve_region() will be inlined, there will not be functional changes, but will improve code readability a little.

When parsing SRAT, all memory ranges are added into numa_meminfo. In numa_init(), before entering numa_cleanup_meminfo(), all possible memory ranges are in numa_meminfo. And numa_cleanup_meminfo() removes all ranges over max_pfn or empty. But, this only works if the nodes are continuous. Let's have a look at the following example: We have an SRAT like this: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00000000-0x5fffffff] SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x100000000-0x1ffffffffff] SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 [mem 0x20000000000-0x3ffffffffff] SRAT: Node 4 PXM 2 [mem 0x40000000000-0x5ffffffffff] hotplug SRAT: Node 5 PXM 3 [mem 0x60000000000-0x7ffffffffff] hotplug SRAT: Node 2 PXM 4 [mem 0x80000000000-0x9ffffffffff] hotplug SRAT: Node 3 PXM 5 [mem 0xa0000000000-0xbffffffffff] hotplug SRAT: Node 6 PXM 6 [mem 0xc0000000000-0xdffffffffff] hotplug SRAT: Node 7 PXM 7 [mem 0xe0000000000-0xfffffffffff] hotplug On boot, only node 0,1,2,3 exist. And the numa_meminfo will look like this: numa_meminfo.nr_blks = 9 1. on node 0: [0, 60000000] 2. on node 0: [100000000, 20000000000] 3. on node 1: [20000000000, 40000000000] 4. on node 4: [40000000000, 60000000000] 5. on node 5: [60000000000, 80000000000] 6. on node 2: [80000000000, a0000000000] 7. on node 3: [a0000000000, a0800000000] 8. on node 6: [c0000000000, a0800000000] 9. on node 7: [e0000000000, a0800000000] And numa_cleanup_meminfo() will merge 1 and 2, and remove 8,9 because the end address is over max_pfn, which is a0800000000. But 4 and 5 are not removed because their end addresses are less then max_pfn. But in fact, node 4 and 5 don't exist. In a word, numa_cleanup_meminfo() is not able to handle holes between nodes. Since memory ranges in node 4 and 5 are in numa_meminfo, in numa_register_memblks(), node 4 and 5 will be mistakenly set to online. If you run lscpu, it will show: NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-14,128-142 NUMA node1 CPU(s): 15-29,143-157 NUMA node2 CPU(s): NUMA node3 CPU(s): NUMA node4 CPU(s): 62-76,190-204 NUMA node5 CPU(s): 78-92,206-220 In this patch, we use memblock_overlaps_region() to check if ranges in numa_meminfo overlap with ranges in memory_block. Since memory_block contains all available memory at boot time, if they overlap, it means the ranges exist. If not, then remove them from numa_meminfo. After this patch, lscpu will show: NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-14,128-142 NUMA node1 CPU(s): 15-29,143-157 NUMA node4 CPU(s): 62-76,190-204 NUMA node5 CPU(s): 78-92,206-220 Signed-off-by: NTang Chen <tangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: NYasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com> Cc: Xishi Qiu <qiuxishi@huawei.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: Vladimir Murzin <vladimir.murzin@arm.com> Cc: Fabian Frederick <fabf@skynet.be> Cc: Alexander Kuleshov <kuleshovmail@gmail.com> Cc: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Struct page initialisation had been identified as one of the reasons why large machines take a long time to boot. Patches were posted a long time ago to defer initialisation until they were first used. This was rejected on the grounds it should not be necessary to hurt the fast paths. This series reuses much of the work from that time but defers the initialisation of memory to kswapd so that one thread per node initialises memory local to that node. After applying the series and setting the appropriate Kconfig variable I see this in the boot log on a 64G machine [ 7.383764] kswapd 0 initialised deferred memory in 188ms [ 7.404253] kswapd 1 initialised deferred memory in 208ms [ 7.411044] kswapd 3 initialised deferred memory in 216ms [ 7.411551] kswapd 2 initialised deferred memory in 216ms On a 1TB machine, I see [ 8.406511] kswapd 3 initialised deferred memory in 1116ms [ 8.428518] kswapd 1 initialised deferred memory in 1140ms [ 8.435977] kswapd 0 initialised deferred memory in 1148ms [ 8.437416] kswapd 2 initialised deferred memory in 1148ms Once booted the machine appears to work as normal. Boot times were measured from the time shutdown was called until ssh was available again. In the 64G case, the boot time savings are negligible. On the 1TB machine, the savings were 16 seconds. Nate Zimmer said: : On an older 8 TB box with lots and lots of cpus the boot time, as : measure from grub to login prompt, the boot time improved from 1484 : seconds to exactly 1000 seconds. Waiman Long said: : I ran a bootup timing test on a 12-TB 16-socket IvyBridge-EX system. From : grub menu to ssh login, the bootup time was 453s before the patch and 265s : after the patch - a saving of 188s (42%). Daniel Blueman said: : On a 7TB, 1728-core NumaConnect system with 108 NUMA nodes, we're seeing : stock 4.0 boot in 7136s. This drops to 2159s, or a 70% reduction with : this patchset.

This patch (of 13): As part of initializing struct page's in 2MiB chunks, we noticed that at the end of free_all_bootmem(), there was nothing which had forced the reserved/allocated 4KiB pages to be initialized. This helper function will be used for that expansion.

Try to allocate all boot time kernel data structures from mirrored memory. If we run out of mirrored memory print warnings, but fall back to using non-mirrored memory to make sure that we still boot. By number of bytes, most of what we allocate at boot time is the page structures. 64 bytes per 4K page on x86_64 ... or about 1.5% of total system memory. For workloads where the bulk of memory is allocated to applications this may represent a useful improvement to system availability since 1.5% of total memory might be a third of the memory allocated to the kernel.

Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a recoverable machine check. Linux has included code for some time to process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by reading from disk). But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code execution. Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever be able to recover. Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing. Gen1: All memory is mirrored Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the mirror Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers Pro: Keep more of the capacity Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory controller Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance Con: I have to write memory management code to implement The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations. This has been broken into two phases: 1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time allocations 2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because page_alloc.c is scary). This patch (of 3): Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on attribute.

There is a lot of duplication in the rubric around actually setting or clearing a mem region flag. Create a new helper function to do this and reduce each of memblock_mark_hotplug() and memblock_clear_hotplug() to a single line. This will be useful if someone were to add a new mem region flag - which I hope to be doing some day soon. But it looks like a plausible cleanup even without that - so I'd like to get it out of the way now.

Let memblock skip the hotpluggable memory regions in __next_mem_range(), it is used to to prevent memblock from allocating hotpluggable memory for the kernel at early time. The code is the same as __next_mem_range_rev(). Clear hotpluggable flag before releasing free pages to the buddy allocator. If we don't clear hotpluggable flag in free_low_memory_core_early(), the memory which marked hotpluggable flag will not free to buddy allocator.

In memblock_find_in_range_node(), we defined ret as int. But it should be phys_addr_t because it is used to store the return value from __memblock_find_range_bottom_up(). The bug has not been triggered because when allocating low memory near the kernel end, the "int ret" won't turn out to be negative. When we started to allocate memory on other nodes, and the "int ret" could be minus. Then the kernel will panic. A simple way to reproduce this: comment out the following code in numa_init(), memblock_set_bottom_up(false); and the kernel won't boot.

Kmemleak could ignore memory blocks allocated via memblock_alloc() leading to false positives during scanning. This patch adds the corresponding callbacks and removes kmemleak_free_* calls in mm/nobootmem.c to avoid duplication. The kmemleak_alloc() in mm/nobootmem.c is kept since __alloc_memory_core_early() does not use memblock_alloc() directly.

Add the physmem list to the memblock structure. This list only exists if HAVE_MEMBLOCK_PHYS_MAP is selected and contains the unmodified list of physically available memory. It differs from the memblock memory list as it always contains all memory ranges even if the memory has been restricted, e.g. by use of the mem= kernel parameter.
