link_mem_sections() and walk_memory_range() share most of the code, so we can use convert link_mem_sections() into a dummy function that calls walk_memory_range() with a callback to register_mem_sect_under_node(). This patch converts register_mem_sect_under_node() in order to match a walk_memory_range's callback, getting rid of the check_nid argument and checking instead if the system is still boothing, since we only have to check for the nid if the system is in such state.

When hotplugging memory, it is possible that two calls are being made to register_mem_sect_under_node(). One comes from __add_section()->hotplug_memory_register() and the other from add_memory_resource()->link_mem_sections() if we had to register a new node. In case we had to register a new node, hotplug_memory_register() will only handle/allocate the memory_block's since register_mem_sect_under_node() will return right away because the node it is not online yet. I think it is better if we leave hotplug_memory_register() to handle/allocate only memory_block's and make link_mem_sections() to call register_mem_sect_under_node(). So this patch removes the call to register_mem_sect_under_node() from hotplug_memory_register(), and moves the call to link_mem_sections() out of the condition, so it will always be called. In this way we only have one place where the memory sections are registered. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180622111839.10071-3-osalvador@techadventures.net Signed-off-by:

This is a small cleanup for the memhotplug code. A lot more could be done, but it is better to start somewhere. I tried to unify/remove duplicated code. The following is what this patchset does: 1) add_memory_resource() has code to allocate a node in case it was offline. Since try_online_node has some code for that as well, I just made add_memory_resource() to use that so we can remove duplicated code.. This is better explained in patch 1/4. 2) register_mem_sect_under_node() will be called only from link_mem_sections() 3) Make register_mem_sect_under_node() a callback of walk_memory_range() 4) Drop unnecessary checks from register_mem_sect_under_node() I have done some tests and I could not see anything broken because of this patchset. add_memory_resource() contains code to allocate a new node in case it is necessary. Since try_online_node() also has some code for this purpose, let us make use of that and remove duplicate code. This introduces __try_online_node(), which is called by add_memory_resource() and try_online_node(). __try_online_node() has two new parameters, start_addr of the node, and if the node should be onlined and registered right away. This is always wanted if we are calling from do_cpu_up(), but not when we are calling from memhotplug code. Nothing changes from the point of view of the users of try_online_node(), since try_online_node passes start_addr=0 and online_node=true to __try_online_node().

The case of a new numa node got missed in avoiding using the node info from page_struct during hotplug. In this path we have a call to register_mem_sect_under_node (which allows us to specify it is hotplug so don't change the node), via link_mem_sections which unfortunately does not. Fix is to pass check_nid through link_mem_sections as well and disable it in the new numa node path. Note the bug only 'sometimes' manifests depending on what happens to be in the struct page structures - there are lots of them and it only needs to match one of them. The result of the bug is that (with a new memory only node) we never successfully call register_mem_sect_under_node so don't get the memory associated with the node in sysfs and meminfo for the node doesn't report it. It came up whilst testing some arm64 hotplug patches, but appears to be universal. Whilst I'm triggering it by removing then reinserting memory to a node with no other elements (thus making the node disappear then appear again), it appears it would happen on hotplugging memory where there was none before and it doesn't seem to be related the arm64 patches. These patches call __add_pages (where most of the issue was fixed by Pavel's patch). If there is a node at the time of the __add_pages call then all is well as it calls register_mem_sect_under_node from there with check_nid set to false. Without a node that function returns having not done the sysfs related stuff as there is no node to use. This is expected but it is the resulting path that fails... Exact path to the problem is as follows: mm/memory_hotplug.c: add_memory_resource() The node is not online so we enter the 'if (new_node)' twice, on the second such block there is a call to link_mem_sections which calls into drivers/node.c: link_mem_sections() which calls drivers/node.c: register_mem_sect_under_node() which calls get_nid_for_pfn and keeps trying until the output of that matches the expected node (passed all the way down from add_memory_resource) It is effectively the same fix as the one referred to in the fixes tag just in the code path for a new node where the comments point out we have to rerun the link creation because it will have failed in register_new_memory (as there was no node at the time). (actually that comment is wrong now as we don't have register_new_memory any more it got renamed to hotplug_memory_register in Pavel's patch).

THP migration is hacked into the generic migration with rather surprising semantic. The migration allocation callback is supposed to check whether the THP can be migrated at once and if that is not the case then it allocates a simple page to migrate. unmap_and_move then fixes that up by spliting the THP into small pages while moving the head page to the newly allocated order-0 page. Remaning pages are moved to the LRU list by split_huge_page. The same happens if the THP allocation fails. This is really ugly and error prone [1]. I also believe that split_huge_page to the LRU lists is inherently wrong because all tail pages are not migrated. Some callers will just work around that by retrying (e.g. memory hotplug). There are other pfn walkers which are simply broken though. e.g. madvise_inject_error will migrate head and then advances next pfn by the huge page size. do_move_page_to_node_array, queue_pages_range (migrate_pages, mbind), will simply split the THP before migration if the THP migration is not supported then falls back to single page migration but it doesn't handle tail pages if the THP migration path is not able to allocate a fresh THP so we end up with ENOMEM and fail the whole migration which is a questionable behavior. Page compaction doesn't try to migrate large pages so it should be immune. This patch tries to unclutter the situation by moving the special THP handling up to the migrate_pages layer where it actually belongs. We simply split the THP page into the existing list if unmap_and_move fails with ENOMEM and retry. So we will _always_ migrate all THP subpages and specific migrate_pages users do not have to deal with this case in a special way.

No allocation callback is using this argument anymore. new_page_node used to use this parameter to convey node_id resp. migration error up to move_pages code (do_move_page_to_node_array). The error status never made it into the final status field and we have a better way to communicate node id to the status field now. All other allocation callbacks simply ignored the argument so we can drop it finally.

During memory hotplugging we traverse struct pages three times: 1. memset(0) in sparse_add_one_section() 2. loop in __add_section() to set do: set_page_node(page, nid); and SetPageReserved(page); 3. loop in memmap_init_zone() to call __init_single_pfn() This patch removes the first two loops, and leaves only loop 3. All struct pages are initialized in one place, the same as it is done during boot. The benefits: - We improve memory hotplug performance because we are not evicting the cache several times and also reduce loop branching overhead. - Remove condition from hotpath in __init_single_pfn(), that was added in order to fix the problem that was reported by Bharata in the above email thread, thus also improve performance during normal boot. - Make memory hotplug more similar to the boot memory initialization path because we zero and initialize struct pages only in one function. - Simplifies memory hotplug struct page initialization code, and thus enables future improvements, such as multi-threading the initialization of struct pages in order to improve hotplug performance even further on larger machines.

During memory hotplugging the probe routine will leave struct pages uninitialized, the same as it is currently done during boot. Therefore, we do not want to access the inside of struct pages before __init_single_page() is called during onlining. Because during hotplug we know that pages in one memory block belong to the same numa node, we can skip the checking. We should keep checking for the boot case.

Patch series "optimize memory hotplug", v3. This patchset: - Improves hotplug performance by eliminating a number of struct page traverses during memory hotplug. - Fixes some issues with hotplugging, where boundaries were not properly checked. And on x86 block size was not properly aligned with end of memory - Also, potentially improves boot performance by eliminating condition from __init_single_page(). - Adds robustness by verifying that that struct pages are correctly poisoned when flags are accessed.

Also make sure that config has the following turned on: CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE CONFIG_ACPI_HOTPLUG_MEMORY Using the qemu monitor hotplug the memory (make sure config has (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1 The operation will fail with the following trace: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 91 at drivers/base/memory.c:205 pages_correctly_reserved+0xe6/0x110 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 91 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 4.16.0-rc1_pt_master #29 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.11.0-0-g63451fca13-prebuilt.qemu-project.org 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:pages_correctly_reserved+0xe6/0x110 Call Trace: memory_subsys_online+0x44/0xa0 device_online+0x51/0x80 store_mem_state+0x5e/0xe0 kernfs_fop_write+0xfa/0x170 __vfs_write+0x2e/0x150 vfs_write+0xa8/0x1a0 SyS_write+0x4d/0xb0 do_syscall_64+0x5d/0x110 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x21/0x86 ---[ end trace 6203bc4f1a5d30e8 ]--- The problem is detected in: drivers/base/memory.c static bool pages_correctly_reserved(unsigned long start_pfn) 205 if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!pfn_valid(pfn))) This function loops through every section in the newly added memory block and verifies that the first pfn is valid, meaning section exists, has mapping (struct page array), and is online. The block size on x86 is usually 128M, but when machine is booted with more than 64G of memory, the block size is changed to 2G: $ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes 80000000 or $ dmesg | grep "block size" [ 0.086469] x86/mm: Memory block size: 2048MB During memory hotplug, and hotremove we verify that the range is section size aligned, but we actually must verify that it is block size aligned, because that is the proper unit for hotplug operations. See: Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt So, when the start_pfn of newly added memory is not block size aligned, we can get a memory block that has only part of it with properly populated sections. In our case the start_pfn starts from the last_pfn (end of physical memory). $ dmesg | grep last_pfn [ 0.000000] e820: last_pfn = 0x1040000 max_arch_pfn = 0x400000000 0x1040000 == 65G, and so is not 2G aligned! The fix is to enforce that memory that is hotplugged and hotremoved is block size aligned. With this fix, running the above sequence yield to the following result: (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1 Block size [0x80000000] unaligned hotplug range: start 0x1040000000, size 0x80000000 acpi PNP0C80:00: add_memory failed acpi PNP0C80:00: acpi_memory_enable_device() error acpi PNP0C80:00: Enumeration failure Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180213193159.14606-2-pasha.tatashin@oracle.com Signed-off-by:

Pulling cpu hotplug locks inside the mm core function like lru_add_drain_all just asks for problems and the recent lockdep splat [1] just proves this. While the usage in that particular case might be wrong we should avoid the locking as lru_add_drain_all() is used in many places. It seems that this is not all that hard to achieve actually. We have done the same thing for drain_all_pages which is analogous by commit a459eeb7 ("mm, page_alloc: do not depend on cpu hotplug locks inside the allocator"). All we have to care about is to handle - the work item might be executed on a different cpu in worker from unbound pool so it doesn't run on pinned on the cpu - we have to make sure that we do not race with page_alloc_cpu_dead calling lru_add_drain_cpu the first part is already handled because the worker calls lru_add_drain which disables preemption when calling lru_add_drain_cpu on the local cpu it is draining. The later is true because page_alloc_cpu_dead is called on the controlling CPU after the hotplugged CPU vanished completely.

We have a hardcoded 120s timeout after which the memory offline fails basically since the hot remove has been introduced. This is essentially a policy implemented in the kernel. Moreover there is no way to adjust the timeout and so we are sometimes facing memory offline failures if the system is under a heavy memory pressure or very intensive CPU workload on large machines. It is not very clear what purpose the timeout actually serves. The offline operation is interruptible by a signal so if userspace wants some timeout based termination this can be done trivially by sending a signal. If there is a strong usecase to do this from the kernel then we should do it properly and have a it tunable from the userspace with the timeout disabled by default along with the explanation who uses it and for what purporse.

Patch series "mm, memory_hotplug: redefine memory offline retry logic", v2. While testing memory hotplug on a large 4TB machine we have noticed that memory offlining is just too eager to fail. The primary reason is that the retry logic is just too easy to give up. We have 4 ways out of the offline - we have a permanent failure (isolation or memory notifiers fail, or hugetlb pages cannot be dropped) - userspace sends a signal - a hardcoded 120s timeout expires - page migration fails 5 times This is way too convoluted and it doesn't scale very well. We have seen both temporary migration failures as well as 120s being triggered. After removing those restrictions we were able to pass stress testing during memory hot remove without any other negative side effects observed. Therefore I suggest dropping both hard coded policies. I couldn't have found any specific reason for them in the changelog. I neither didn't get any response [1] from Kamezawa. If we need some upper bound - e.g. timeout based - then we should have a proper and user defined policy for that. In any case there should be a clear use case when introducing it. This patch (of 2): Memory offlining can fail too eagerly under heavy memory pressure. page:ffffea22a646bd00 count:255 mapcount:252 mapping:ffff88ff926c9f38 index:0x3 flags: 0x9855fe40010048(uptodate|active|mappedtodisk) page dumped because: isolation failed page->mem_cgroup:ffff8801cd662000 memory offlining [mem 0x18b580000000-0x18b5ffffffff] failed Isolation has failed here because the page is not on LRU. Most probably because it was on the pcp LRU cache or it has been removed from the LRU already but it hasn't been freed yet. In both cases the page doesn't look non-migrable so retrying more makes sense. __offline_pages seems rather cluttered when it comes to the retry logic. We have 5 retries at maximum and a timeout. We could argue whether the timeout makes sense but failing just because of a race when somebody isoltes a page from LRU or puts it on a pcp LRU lists is just wrong. It only takes it to race with a process which unmaps some pages and remove them from the LRU list and we can fail the whole offline because of something that is a temporary condition and actually not harmful for the offline. Please note that unmovable pages should be already excluded during start_isolate_page_range. We could argue that has_unmovable_pages is racy and MIGRATE_MOVABLE check doesn't provide any hard guarantee either but kernel zones (aka < ZONE_MOVABLE) will very likely detect unmovable pages in most cases and movable zone shouldn't contain unmovable pages at all. Some of those pages might be pinned but not for ever because that would be a bug on its own. In any case the context is still interruptible and so the userspace can easily bail out when the operation takes too long. This is certainly better behavior than a hardcoded retry loop which is racy. Fix this by removing the max retry count and only rely on the timeout resp. interruption by a signal from the userspace. Also retry rather than fail when check_pages_isolated sees some !free pages because those could be a result of the race as well.

If sec is defined as unsigned long, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 64 bit value. But if sec is defined as int, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 32 bit value. __remove_section() calculates start_pfn using section_nr_to_pfn() and scn_nr defined as int. So if hot-removed memory address is over 16TB, overflow issue occurs and section_nr_to_pfn() does not calculate correct pfn. To make callers use proper arg, the patch changes the macros to inline functions.

Patch series "mm, memory_hotplug: fix few soft lockups in memory hotadd". Johannes has noticed few soft lockups when adding a large nvdimm device. All of them were caused by a long loop without any explicit cond_resched which is a problem for !PREEMPT kernels. The fix is quite straightforward. Just make sure that cond_resched gets called from time to time. This patch (of 3): __add_pages gets a pfn range to add and there is no upper bound for a single call. This is usually a memory block aligned size for the regular memory hotplug - smaller sizes are usual for memory balloning drivers, or the whole NUMA node for physical memory online. There is no explicit scheduling point in that code path though. This can lead to long latencies while __add_pages is executed and we have even seen a soft lockup report during nvdimm initialization with !PREEMPT kernel NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#11 stuck for 23s!

HMM (heterogeneous memory management) need struct page to support migration from system main memory to device memory. Reasons for HMM and migration to device memory is explained with HMM core patch. This patch deals with device memory that is un-addressable memory (ie CPU can not access it). Hence we do not want those struct page to be manage like regular memory. That is why we extend ZONE_DEVICE to support different types of memory. A persistent memory type is define for existing user of ZONE_DEVICE and a new device un-addressable type is added for the un-addressable memory type. There is a clear separation between what is expected from each memory type and existing user of ZONE_DEVICE are un-affected by new requirement and new use of the un-addressable type. All specific code path are protect with test against the memory type. Because memory is un-addressable we use a new special swap type for when a page is migrated to device memory (this reduces the number of maximum swap file). The main two additions beside memory type to ZONE_DEVICE is two callbacks. First one, page_free() is call whenever page refcount reach 1 (which means the page is free as ZONE_DEVICE page never reach a refcount of 0). This allow device driver to manage its memory and associated struct page. The second callback page_fault() happens when there is a CPU access to an address that is back by a device page (which are un-addressable by the CPU). This callback is responsible to migrate the page back to system main memory. Device driver can not block migration back to system memory, HMM make sure that such page can not be pin into device memory. If device is in some error condition and can not migrate memory back then a CPU page fault to device memory should end with SIGBUS.

zonelists_mutex was introduced by commit 4eaf3f64 ("mem-hotplug: fix potential race while building zonelist for new populated zone") to protect zonelist building from races. This is no longer needed though because both memory online and offline are fully serialized. New users have grown since then. Notably setup_per_zone_wmarks wants to prevent from races between memory hotplug, khugepaged setup and manual min_free_kbytes update via sysctl (see cfd3da1e ("mm: Serialize access to min_free_kbytes"). Let's add a private lock for that purpose. This will not prevent from seeing halfway through memory hotplug operation but that shouldn't be a big deal becuse memory hotplug will update watermarks explicitly so we will eventually get a full picture. The lock just makes sure we won't race when updating watermarks leading to weird results. Also __build_all_zonelists manipulates global data so add a private lock for it as well. This doesn't seem to be necessary today but it is more robust to have a lock there. While we are at it make sure we document that memory online/offline depends on a full serialization either via mem_hotplug_begin() or device_lock.

try_online_node calls hotadd_new_pgdat which already calls build_all_zonelists. So the additional call is redundant. Even though hotadd_new_pgdat will only initialize zonelists of the new node this is the right thing to do because such a node doesn't have any memory so other zonelists would ignore all the zones from this node anyway.

build_all_zonelists gets a zone parameter to initialize zone's pagesets. There is only a single user which gives a non-NULL zone parameter and that one doesn't really need the rest of the build_all_zonelists (see commit 6dcd73d7 ("memory-hotplug: allocate zone's pcp before onlining pages")). Therefore remove setup_zone_pageset from build_all_zonelists and call it from its only user directly. This will also remove a pointless zonlists rebuilding which is always good.

Historically we have enforced that any kernel zone (e.g ZONE_NORMAL) has to precede the Movable zone in the physical memory range. The purpose of the movable zone is, however, not bound to any physical memory restriction. It merely defines a class of migrateable and reclaimable memory. There are users (e.g. CMA) who might want to reserve specific physical memory ranges for their own purpose. Moreover our pfn walkers have to be prepared for zones overlapping in the physical range already because we do support interleaving NUMA nodes and therefore zones can interleave as well. This means we can allow each memory block to be associated with a different zone. Loosen the current onlining semantic and allow explicit onlining type on any memblock. That means that online_{kernel,movable} will be allowed regardless of the physical address of the memblock as long as it is offline of course. This might result in moveble zone overlapping with other kernel zones. Default onlining then becomes a bit tricky but still sensible. echo online > memoryXY/state will online the given block to 1) the default zone if the given range is outside of any zone 2) the enclosing zone if such a zone doesn't interleave with any other zone 3) the default zone if more zones interleave for this range where default zone is movable zone only if movable_node is enabled otherwise it is a kernel zone. Here is an example of the semantic with (movable_node is not present but it work in an analogous way). We start with following memblocks, all of them offline: memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory37/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory40/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory41/valid_zones:Normal Movable Now, we online block 34 in default mode and block 37 as movable root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online > memory34/state root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_movable > memory37/state memory34/valid_zones:Normal memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory37/valid_zones:Movable memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory40/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory41/valid_zones:Normal Movable As we can see all other blocks can still be onlined both into Normal and Movable zones and the Normal is default because the Movable zone spans only block37 now. root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_movable > memory41/state memory34/valid_zones:Normal memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory37/valid_zones:Movable memory38/valid_zones:Movable Normal memory39/valid_zones:Movable Normal memory40/valid_zones:Movable Normal memory41/valid_zones:Movable Now the default zone for blocks 37-41 has changed because movable zone spans that range. root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_kernel > memory39/state memory34/valid_zones:Normal memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory37/valid_zones:Movable memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory39/valid_zones:Normal memory40/valid_zones:Movable Normal memory41/valid_zones:Movable Note that the block 39 now belongs to the zone Normal and so block38 falls into Normal by default as well. For completness root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# for i in memory[34]? do echo online > $i/state 2>/dev/null done memory34/valid_zones:Normal memory35/valid_zones:Normal memory36/valid_zones:Normal memory37/valid_zones:Movable memory38/valid_zones:Normal memory39/valid_zones:Normal memory40/valid_zones:Movable memory41/valid_zones:Movable Implementation wise the change is quite straightforward. We can get rid of allow_online_pfn_range altogether. online_pages allows only offline nodes already. The original default_zone_for_pfn will become default_kernel_zone_for_pfn. New default_zone_for_pfn implements the above semantic. zone_for_pfn_range is slightly reorganized to implement kernel and movable online type explicitly and MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP becomes a catch all default behavior.

Prior to commit f1dd2cd1 ("mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until online") we used to allow to change the valid zone types of a memory block if it is adjacent to a different zone type. This fact was reflected in memoryNN/valid_zones by the ordering of printed zones. The first one was default (echo online > memoryNN/state) and the other one could be onlined explicitly by online_{movable,kernel}. This behavior was removed by the said patch and as such the ordering was not all that important. In most cases a kernel zone would be default anyway. The only exception is movable_node handled by "mm, memory_hotplug: support movable_node for hotpluggable nodes". Let's reintroduce this behavior again because later patch will remove the zone overlap restriction and so user will be allowed to online kernel resp. movable block regardless of its placement. Original behavior will then become significant again because it would be non-trivial for users to see what is the default zone to online into. Implementation is really simple. Pull out zone selection out of move_pfn_range into zone_for_pfn_range helper and use it in show_valid_zones to display the zone for default onlining and then both kernel and movable if they are allowed. Default online zone is not duplicated. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170714121233.16861-2-mhocko@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

Andrey reported a potential deadlock with the memory hotplug lock and the cpu hotplug lock. The reason is that memory hotplug takes the memory hotplug lock and then calls stop_machine() which calls get_online_cpus(). That's the reverse lock order to get_online_cpus(); get_online_mems(); in mm/slub_common.c The problem has been there forever. The reason why this was never reported is that the cpu hotplug locking had this homebrewn recursive reader writer semaphore construct which due to the recursion evaded the full lock dep coverage. The memory hotplug code copied that construct verbatim and therefor has similar issues. Three steps to fix this: 1) Convert the memory hotplug locking to a per cpu rwsem so the potential issues get reported proper by lockdep. 2) Lock the online cpus in mem_hotplug_begin() before taking the memory hotplug rwsem and use stop_machine_cpuslocked() in the page_alloc code to avoid recursive locking. 3) The cpu hotpluck locking in #2 causes a recursive locking of the cpu hotplug lock via __offline_pages() -> lru_add_drain_all(). Solve this by invoking lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked() instead. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170704093421.506836322@linutronix.de Reported-by:

Commit 394e31d2 ("mem-hotplug: alloc new page from a nearest neighbor node when mem-offline") has duplicated a large part of alloc_migrate_target with some hotplug specific special casing. To be more precise it tried to enfore the allocation from a different node than the original page. As a result the two function diverged in their shared logic, e.g. the hugetlb allocation strategy. Let's unify the two and express different NUMA requirements by the given nodemask. new_node_page will simply exclude the node it doesn't care about and alloc_migrate_target will use all the available nodes. alloc_migrate_target will then learn to migrate hugetlb pages more sanely and use preallocated pool when possible. Please note that alloc_migrate_target used to call alloc_page resp. alloc_pages_current so the memory policy of the current context which is quite strange when we consider that it is used in the context of alloc_contig_range which just tries to migrate pages which stand in the way.

new_node_page will try to use the origin's next NUMA node as the migration destination for hugetlb pages. If such a node doesn't have any preallocated pool it falls back to __alloc_buddy_huge_page_no_mpol to allocate a surplus page instead. This is quite subotpimal for any configuration when hugetlb pages are no distributed to all NUMA nodes evenly. Say we have a hotplugable node 4 and spare hugetlb pages are node 0 /sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:10000 /sys/devices/system/node/node1/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node2/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node3/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node4/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:10000 /sys/devices/system/node/node5/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node6/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node7/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 Now we consume the whole pool on node 4 and try to offline this node. All the allocated pages should be moved to node0 which has enough preallocated pages to hold them. With the current implementation offlining very likely fails because hugetlb allocations during runtime are much less reliable. Fix this by reusing the nodemask which excludes migration source and try to find a first node which has a page in the preallocated pool first and fall back to __alloc_buddy_huge_page_no_mpol only when the whole pool is consumed.

new_node_page tries to allocate the target page on a different NUMA node than the source page. This makes sense in most cases during the hotplug because we are likely to offline the whole numa node. But there are cases where there are no other nodes to fallback (e.g. when offlining parts of the only existing node) and we have to fallback to allocating from the source node. The current code does that but it can be simplified by checking the nmask and updating it before we even try to allocate rather than special casing it. This patch shouldn't introduce any functional change. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170608074553.22152-2-mhocko@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

movable_node kernel parameter allows making hotpluggable NUMA nodes to put all the hotplugable memory into movable zone which allows more or less reliable memory hotremove. At least this is the case for the NUMA nodes present during the boot (see find_zone_movable_pfns_for_nodes). This is not the case for the memory hotplug, though. echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXYZ/state will default to a kernel zone (usually ZONE_NORMAL) unless the particular memblock is already in the movable zone range which is not the case normally when onlining the memory from the udev rule context for a freshly hotadded NUMA node. The only option currently is to have a special udev rule to echo online_movable to all memblocks belonging to such a node which is rather clumsy. Not to mention this is inconsistent as well because what ended up in the movable zone during the boot will end up in a kernel zone after hotremove & hotadd without special care. It would be nice to reuse memblock_is_hotpluggable but the runtime hotplug doesn't have that information available because the boot and hotplug paths are not shared and it would be really non trivial to make them use the same code path because the runtime hotplug doesn't play with the memblock allocator at all. Teach move_pfn_range that MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP can use the movable zone if movable_node is enabled and the range doesn't overlap with the existing normal zone. This should provide a reasonable default onlining strategy. Strictly speaking the semantic is not identical with the boot time initialization because find_zone_movable_pfns_for_nodes covers only the hotplugable range as described by the BIOS/FW. From my experience this is usually a full node though (except for Node0 which is special and never goes away completely). If this turns out to be a problem in the real life we can tweak the code to store hotplug flag into memblocks but let's keep this simple now.
