The hot-Pluggable field in SRAT specifies which memory is hotpluggable.
As we mentioned before, if hotpluggable memory is used by the kernel, it
cannot be hot-removed. So memory hotplug users may want to set all
hotpluggable memory in ZONE_MOVABLE so that the kernel won't use it.
Memory hotplug users may also set a node as movable node, which has
ZONE_MOVABLE only, so that the whole node can be hot-removed.
But the kernel cannot use memory in ZONE_MOVABLE. By doing this, the
kernel cannot use memory in movable nodes. This will cause NUMA
performance down. And other users may be unhappy.
So we need a way to allow users to enable and disable this functionality.
In this patch, we introduce movable_node boot option to allow users to
choose to not to consume hotpluggable memory at early boot time and later
we can set it as ZONE_MOVABLE.
To achieve this, the movable_node boot option will control the memblock
allocation direction. That said, after memblock is ready, before SRAT is
parsed, we should allocate memory near the kernel image as we explained in
the previous patches. So if movable_node boot option is set, the kernel
does the following:
1. After memblock is ready, make memblock allocate memory bottom up.
2. After SRAT is parsed, make memblock behave as default, allocate memory
top down.
Users can specify "movable_node" in kernel commandline to enable this
functionality. For those who don't use memory hotplug or who don't want
to lose their NUMA performance, just don't specify anything. The kernel
will work as before.

The Linux kernel cannot migrate pages used by the kernel. As a result,
kernel pages cannot be hot-removed. So we cannot allocate hotpluggable
memory for the kernel.
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.
ACPI SRAT (System Resource Affinity Table) contains the memory hotplug
info. But before SRAT is parsed, memblock has already started to allocate
memory for the kernel. So we need to prevent memblock from doing this.
So direct memory mapping page tables setup is the case.
init_mem_mapping() is called before SRAT is parsed. To prevent page
tables being allocated within hotpluggable memory, we will use bottom-up
direction to allocate page tables from the end of kernel image to the
higher memory.
Note:
As for allocating page tables in lower memory, TJ said:
: This is an optional behavior which is triggered by a very specific kernel
: boot param, which I suspect is gonna need to stick around to support
: memory hotplug in the current setup unless we add another layer of address
: translation to support memory hotplug.
As for page tables may occupy too much lower memory if using 4K mapping
(CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and CONFIG_KMEMCHECK both disable using >4k
pages), TJ said:
: But as I said in the same paragraph, parsing SRAT earlier doesn't solve
: the problem in itself either. Ignoring the option if 4k mapping is
: required and memory consumption would be prohibitive should work, no?
: Something like that would be necessary if we're gonna worry about cases
: like this no matter how we implement it, but, frankly, I'm not sure this
: is something worth worrying about.

Create a new function memory_map_top_down to factor out of the top-down
direct memory mapping pagetable setup. This is also a preparation for the
following patch, which will introduce the bottom-up memory mapping. That
said, we will put the two ways of pagetable setup into separate functions,
and choose to use which way in init_mem_mapping, which makes the code more
clear.

Now that we can deal with nested NMI due to IRET re-enabling NMIs and
can deal with faults from NMI by making sure we preserve CR2 over NMIs
we can in fact simply access user-space memory from NMI context.
So rewrite copy_from_user_nmi() to use __copy_from_user_inatomic() and
rework the fault path to do the minimal required work before taking
the in_atomic() fault handler.
In particular avoid perf_sw_event() which would make perf recurse on
itself (it should be harmless as our recursion protections should be
able to deal with this -- but why tempt fate).
Also rename notify_page_fault() to kprobes_fault() as that is a much
better name; there is no notifier in it and its specific to kprobes.
Don measured that his worst case NMI path shrunk from ~300K cycles to
~150K cycles.

The x86 fault handler bails in the middle of error handling when the
task has a fatal signal pending. For a subsequent patch this is a
problem in OOM situations because it relies on pagefault_out_of_memory()
being called even when the task has been killed, to perform proper
per-task OOM state unwinding.
Shortcutting the fault like this is a rather minor optimization that
saves a few instructions in rare cases. Just remove it for
user-triggered faults.
Use the opportunity to split the fault retry handling from actual fault
errors and add locking documentation that reads suprisingly similar to
ARM's.

Unlike global OOM handling, memory cgroup code will invoke the OOM killer
in any OOM situation because it has no way of telling faults occuring in
kernel context - which could be handled more gracefully - from
user-triggered faults.
Pass a flag that identifies faults originating in user space from the
architecture-specific fault handlers to generic code so that memcg OOM
handling can be improved.

Currently hugepage migration works well only for pmd-based hugepages
(mainly due to lack of testing,) so we had better not enable migration of
other levels of hugepages until we are ready for it.
Some users of hugepage migration (mbind, move_pages, and migrate_pages) do
page table walk and check pud/pmd_huge() there, so they are safe. But the
other users (softoffline and memory hotremove) don't do this, so without
this patch they can try to migrate unexpected types of hugepages.
To prevent this, we introduce hugepage_migration_support() as an
architecture dependent check of whether hugepage are implemented on a pmd
basis or not. And on some architecture multiple sizes of hugepages are
available, so hugepage_migration_support() also checks hugepage size.

The previous patch doing vmstats for TLB flushes ("mm: vmstats: tlb flush
counters") effectively missed UP since arch/x86/mm/tlb.c is only compiled
for SMP.
UP systems do not do remote TLB flushes, so compile those counters out on
UP.
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c calls __flush_tlb() directly. This is
probably an optimization since both the mtrr code and __flush_tlb() write
cr4. It would probably be safe to make that a flush_tlb_all() (and then
get these statistics), but the mtrr code is ancient and I'm hesitant to
touch it other than to just stick in the counters.

I was investigating some TLB flush scaling issues and realized that we do
not have any good methods for figuring out how many TLB flushes we are
doing.
It would be nice to be able to do these in generic code, but the
arch-independent calls don't explicitly specify whether we actually need
to do remote flushes or not. In the end, we really need to know if we
actually _did_ global vs. local invalidations, so that leaves us with few
options other than to muck with the counters from arch-specific code.

This reverts commit df54d6fa54275ce59660453e29d1228c2b45a826.
The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the
random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators
that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't
specified.
In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774
So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch
for that. Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

Before that, we had the maping from [0,512M) in head_64.S, and we
can spare two pages [0-1M). After that change, we can not reuse
pages anymore.
When we have more than 512M ram, we need an extra page for pgd page
with [512G, 1024g).
Increase pages in BRK for page table to solve the boot crash.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.

Concentrate code to modify totalram_pages into the mm core, so the arch
memory initialized code doesn't need to take care of it. With these
changes applied, only following functions from mm core modify global
variable totalram_pages: free_bootmem_late(), free_all_bootmem(),
free_all_bootmem_node(), adjust_managed_page_count().
With this patch applied, it will be much more easier for us to keep
totalram_pages and zone->managed_pages in consistence.

In order to simpilify management of totalram_pages and
zone->managed_pages, make __free_pages_bootmem() only available at boot
time. With this change applied, __free_pages_bootmem() will only be
used by bootmem.c and nobootmem.c at boot time, so mark it as __init.
Other callers of __free_pages_bootmem() have been converted to use
free_reserved_page(), which handles totalram_pages and
zone->managed_pages in a safer way.
This patch also fix a bug in free_pagetable() for x86_64, which should
increase zone->managed_pages instead of zone->present_pages when freeing
reserved pages.
And now we have managed_pages_count_lock to protect totalram_pages and
zone->managed_pages, so remove the redundant ppb_lock lock in
put_page_bootmem(). This greatly simplifies the locking rules.

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.

Commit
8d57470d x86, mm: setup page table in top-down
causes a kernel panic while setting mem=2G.
[mem 0x00000000-0x000fffff] page 4k
[mem 0x7fe00000-0x7fffffff] page 1G
[mem 0x7c000000-0x7fdfffff] page 1G
[mem 0x00100000-0x001fffff] page 4k
[mem 0x00200000-0x7bffffff] page 2M
for last entry is not what we want, we should have
[mem 0x00200000-0x3fffffff] page 2M
[mem 0x40000000-0x7bffffff] page 1G
Actually we merge the continuous ranges with same page size too early.
in this case, before merging we have
[mem 0x00200000-0x3fffffff] page 2M
[mem 0x40000000-0x7bffffff] page 2M
after merging them, will get
[mem 0x00200000-0x7bffffff] page 2M
even we can use 1G page to map
[mem 0x40000000-0x7bffffff]
that will cause problem, because we already map
[mem 0x7fe00000-0x7fffffff] page 1G
[mem 0x7c000000-0x7fdfffff] page 1G
with 1G page, aka [0x40000000-0x7fffffff] is mapped with 1G page already.
During phys_pud_init() for [0x40000000-0x7bffffff], it will not
reuse existing that pud page, and allocate new one then try to use
2M page to map it instead, as page_size_mask does not include
PG_LEVEL_1G. At end will have [7c000000-0x7fffffff] not mapped, loop
in phys_pmd_init stop mapping at 0x7bffffff.
That is right behavoir, it maps exact range with exact page size that
we ask, and we should explicitly call it to map [7c000000-0x7fffffff]
before or after mapping 0x40000000-0x7bffffff.
Anyway we need to make sure ranges' page_size_mask correct and consistent
after split_mem_range for each range.
Fix that by calling adjust_range_size_mask before merging range
with same page size.
-v2: update change log.
-v3: add more explanation why [7c000000-0x7fffffff] is not mapped, and
it causes panic.

pageattr-test calls srandom32() once every test iteration. But calling
srandom32() after late_initcalls is not meaningfull. Because the random
states for random32() is mixed by good random numbers in late_initcall
prandom_reseed().
So this removes the call to srandom32().

Memory hotplug can happen on a machine under load, memory shortness
and fragmentation, so huge page allocations for the vmemmap are not
guaranteed to succeed.
Try to fall back to regular pages before failing the hotplug event
completely.

We already have generic code to allocate vmemmap with regular pages, use
it.

The sparse code, when asking the architecture to populate the vmemmap,
specifies the section range as a starting page and a number of pages.
This is an awkward interface, because none of the arch-specific code
actually thinks of the range in terms of 'struct page' units and always
translates it to bytes first.
In addition, later patches mix huge page and regular page backing for
the vmemmap. For this, they need to call vmemmap_populate_basepages()
on sub-section ranges with PAGE_SIZE and PMD_SIZE in mind. But these
are not necessarily multiples of the 'struct page' size and so this unit
is too coarse.
Just translate the section range into bytes once in the generic sparse
code, then pass byte ranges down the stack.

This patchset removes vm_struct list management after initializing
vmalloc. Adding and removing an entry to vmlist is linear time
complexity, so it is inefficient. If we maintain this list, overall
time complexity of adding and removing area to vmalloc space is O(N),
although we use rbtree for finding vacant place and it's time complexity
is just O(logN).
And vmlist and vmlist_lock is used many places of outside of vmalloc.c.
It is preferable that we hide this raw data structure and provide
well-defined function for supporting them, because it makes that they
cannot mistake when manipulating theses structure and it makes us easily
maintain vmalloc layer.
For kexec and makedumpfile, I export vmap_area_list, instead of vmlist.
This comes from Atsushi's recommendation. For more information, please
refer below link. https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/6/184
This patch:
The purpose of iterating a vmlist is finding vm area with specific virtual
address. find_vm_area() is provided for this purpose and more efficient,
because it uses a rbtree. So change it.
