* crash_dump: export is_kdump_kernel to modules, consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, ↵Olaf Hering2011-03-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* bootmem: Move contig_page_data definition to bootmem.c/nobootmem.cYinghai Lu2011-02-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that bootmem.c and nobootmem.c are separate, it's cleaner to define contig_page_data in each file than in page_alloc.c with #ifdef. Move it. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change. -v2: According to Andrew, fixed the struct layout. -tj: Updated commit description.

* bootmem: Separate out CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM code into nobootmem.cYinghai Lu2011-02-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mm/bootmem.c contained code paths for both bootmem and no bootmem configurations. They implement about the same set of APIs in different ways and as a result bootmem.c contains massive amount of #ifdef CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM. Separate out CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM code into mm/nobootmem.c. As the common part is relatively small, duplicate them in nobootmem.c instead of creating a common file or ifdef'ing in bootmem.c. The followings are duplicated. * {min|max}_low_pfn, max_pfn, saved_max_pfn * free_bootmem_late() * ___alloc_bootmem() * __alloc_bootmem_low() The followings are applicable only to nobootmem and moved verbatim. * __free_pages_memory() * free_all_memory_core_early() The followings are not applicable to nobootmem and omitted in nobootmem.c. * reserve_bootmem_node() * reserve_bootmem() The rest split function bodies according to CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM. Makefile is updated so that only either bootmem.c or nobootmem.c is built according to CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change. -tj: Rewrote commit description.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. replace find_e820_area with memblock_find_in_range 2. replace reserve_early with memblock_x86_reserve_range 3. replace free_early with memblock_x86_free_range. 4. NO_BOOTMEM will switch to use memblock too. 5. use _e820, _early wrap in the patch, in following patch, will replace them all 6. because memblock_x86_free_range support partial free, we can remove some special care 7. Need to make sure that memblock_find_in_range() is called after memblock_x86_fill() so adjust some calling later in setup.c::setup_arch() -- corruption_check and mptable_update -v2: Move reserve_brk() early Before fill_memblock_area, to avoid overlap between brk and memblock_find_in_range() that could happen We have more then 128 RAM entry in E820 tables, and memblock_x86_fill() could use memblock_find_in_range() to find a new place for memblock.memory.region array. and We don't need to use extend_brk() after fill_memblock_area() So move reserve_brk() early before fill_memblock_area(). -v3: Move find_smp_config early To make sure memblock_find_in_range not find wrong place, if BIOS doesn't put mptable in right place. -v4: Treat RESERVED_KERN as RAM in memblock.memory. and they are already in memblock.reserved already.. use __NOT_KEEP_MEMBLOCK to make sure memblock related code could be freed later. -v5: Generic version __memblock_find_in_range() is going from high to low, and for 32bit active_region for 32bit does include high pages need to replace the limit with memblock.default_alloc_limit, aka get_max_mapped() -v6: Use current_limit instead -v7: check with MEMBLOCK_ERROR instead of -1ULL or -1L -v8: Set memblock_can_resize early to handle EFI with more RAM entries -v9: update after kmemleak changes in mainline Suggested-by: David S.

* | include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-30
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* bootmem, x86: further fixes for arch-specific bootmem wrappingTejun Heo2009-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix new breakages introduced by previous fix Commit c132937556f56ee4b831ef4b23f1846e05fde102 tried to clean up bootmem arch wrapper but it wasn't quite correct. Before the commit, the followings were broken. * Low level interface functions prefixed with __ ignored arch preference. * reserve_bootmem(...) can't be mapped into reserve_bootmem_node(NODE_DATA(0)->bdata, ...) because the node is not preference here. The region specified MUST fall into the specified region; otherwise, it will panic. After the commit, * If allocation fails for the arch preferred node, it should fallback to whatever is available. Instead, it simply failed allocation. There are too many internal details to allow generic wrapping and still keep things simple for archs. Plus, all that arch wants is a way to prefer certain node over another. This patch drops the generic wrapping around alloc_bootmem_core() and add alloc_bootmem_core() instead. If necessary, arch can define bootmem_arch_referred_node() macro or function which takes all allocation information and returns the preferred node. bootmem generic code will always try the preferred node first and then fallback to other nodes as usual.

* bootmem: clean up arch-specific bootmem wrappingTejun Heo2009-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: cleaner and consistent bootmem wrapping By setting CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE, archs can define arch-specific wrappers for bootmem allocation. However, this is done a bit strangely in that only the high level convenience macros can be changed while lower level, but still exported, interface functions can't be wrapped. This not only is messy but also leads to strange situation where alloc_bootmem() does what the arch wants it to do but the equivalent __alloc_bootmem() call doesn't although they should be able to be used interchangeably. This patch updates bootmem such that archs can override / wrap the backend function - alloc_bootmem_core() instead of the highlevel interface functions to allow simpler and consistent wrapping. Also, HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE is renamed to HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@saeurebad.de>

* bootmem: fix aligning of node-relative indexes and offsetsJohannes Weiner2008-08-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Absolute alignment requirements may never be applied to node-relative offsets. Andreas Herrmann spotted this flaw when a bootmem allocation on an unaligned node was itself not aligned because the combination of an unaligned node with an aligned offset into that node is not garuanteed to be aligned itself. This patch introduces two helper functions that align a node-relative index or offset with respect to the node's starting address so that the absolute PFN or virtual address that results from combining the two satisfies the requested alignment. Then all the broken ALIGN()s in alloc_bootmem_core() are replaced by these helpers.

* bootmem allocator: alloc_bootmem_core(): page-align the end offsetMikulas Patocka2008-08-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the minimal sequence that jams the allocator: void *p, *q, *r; p = alloc_bootmem(PAGE_SIZE); q = alloc_bootmem(64); free_bootmem(p, PAGE_SIZE); p = alloc_bootmem(PAGE_SIZE); r = alloc_bootmem(64); after this sequence (assuming that the allocator was empty or page-aligned before), pointer "q" will be equal to pointer "r". What's hapenning inside the allocator: p = alloc_bootmem(PAGE_SIZE); in allocator: last_end_off == PAGE_SIZE, bitmap contains bits 10000... q = alloc_bootmem(64); in allocator: last_end_off == PAGE_SIZE + 64, bitmap contains 11000... free_bootmem(p, PAGE_SIZE); in allocator: last_end_off == PAGE_SIZE + 64, bitmap contains 01000... p = alloc_bootmem(PAGE_SIZE); in allocator: last_end_off == PAGE_SIZE, bitmap contains 11000... r = alloc_bootmem(64); and now: it finds bit "2", as a place where to allocate (sidx) it hits the condition if (bdata->last_end_off && PFN_DOWN(bdata->last_end_off) + 1 == sidx)) start_off = ALIGN(bdata->last_end_off, align); -you can see that the condition is true, so it assigns start_off = ALIGN(bdata->last_end_off, align); (that is PAGE_SIZE) and allocates over already allocated block. With the patch it tries to continue at the end of previous allocation only if the previous allocation ended in the middle of the page.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The old node-agnostic code tried allocating on all nodes starting from the one with the lowest range. alloc_bootmem_core retried without the goal if it could not satisfy it and so the goal was only respected at all when it happened to be on the first (lowest page numbers) node (or theoretically if allocations failed on all nodes before to the one holding the goal). Introduce a non-panicking helper that starts allocating from the node holding the goal and falls back only after all thes tries failed, thus moving the goal fallback code out of alloc_bootmem_core.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce new helpers that mark a range that resides completely on a node or node-agnostic ranges that might also span node boundaries. The free/reserve API functions will then directly use these helpers. Note that the free/reserve semantics become more strict: while the prior code took basically arbitrary range arguments and marked the PFNs that happen to fall into that range, the new code requires node-specific ranges to be completely on the node. The node-agnostic requests might span node boundaries as long as the nodes are contiguous. Passing ranges that do not satisfy these criteria is a bug.

Since further block searching might start at this index, it is now set to the end of a succeeded allocation rather than its beginning. bdata->last_offset has been renamed to last_end_off to be more clear that it represents the ending address of the last allocation relative to the node.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch set is to free pages which is allocated by bootmem for memory-hotremove. Some structures of memory management are allocated by bootmem. ex) memmap, etc. To remove memory physically, some of them must be freed according to circumstance. This patch set makes basis to free those pages, and free memmaps. Basic my idea is using remain members of struct page to remember information of users of bootmem (section number or node id). When the section is removing, kernel can confirm it. By this information, some issues can be solved. 1) When the memmap of removing section is allocated on other section by bootmem, it should/can be free. 2) When the memmap of removing section is allocated on the same section, it shouldn't be freed. Because the section has to be logical memory offlined already and all pages must be isolated against page allocater. If it is freed, page allocator may use it which will be removed physically soon. 3) When removing section has other section's memmap, kernel will be able to show easily which section should be removed before it for user. (Not implemented yet) 4) When the above case 2), the page isolation will be able to check and skip memmap's page when logical memory offline (offline_pages()). Current page isolation code fails in this case because this page is just reserved page and it can't distinguish this pages can be removed or not. But, it will be able to do by this patch. (Not implemented yet.) 5) The node information like pgdat has similar issues. But, this will be able to be solved too by this. (Not implemented yet, but, remembering node id in the pages.) Fortunately, current bootmem allocator just keeps PageReserved flags, and doesn't use any other members of page struct. The users of bootmem doesn't use them too. This patch: This is to register information which is node or section's id. Kernel can distinguish which node/section uses the pages allcated by bootmem. This is basis for hot-remove sections or nodes.
