Commit f1dd2cd13c4b ("mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded
memory to zones until online") introduced move_pfn_range_to_zone() which
calls memmap_init_zone() during onlining a memory block.
memmap_init_zone() will reset pagetype flags and makes migrate type to
be MOVABLE.
However, in __offline_pages(), it also call undo_isolate_page_range()
after offline_isolated_pages() to do the same thing. Due to commit
2ce13640b3f4 ("mm: __first_valid_page skip over offline pages") changed
__first_valid_page() to skip offline pages, undo_isolate_page_range()
here just waste CPU cycles looping around the offlining PFN range while
doing nothing, because __first_valid_page() will return NULL as
offline_isolated_pages() has already marked all memory sections within
the pfn range as offline via offline_mem_sections().
Also, after calling the "useless" undo_isolate_page_range() here, it
reaches the point of no returning by notifying MEM_OFFLINE. Those pages
will be marked as MIGRATE_MOVABLE again once onlining. The only thing
left to do is to decrease the number of isolated pageblocks zone counter
which would make some paths of the page allocation slower that the above
commit introduced.
Even if alloc_contig_range() can be used to isolate 16GB-hugetlb pages
on ppc64, an "int" should still be enough to represent the number of
pageblocks there. Fix an incorrect comment along the way.

As all the memblock allocation functions return NULL in case of error
rather than panic(), the duplicates with _nopanic suffix can be removed.

Add check for the return value of memblock_alloc*() functions and call
panic() in case of error. The panic message repeats the one used by
panicing memblock allocators with adjustment of parameters to include
only relevant ones.
The replacement was mostly automated with semantic patches like the one
below with manual massaging of format strings.

Since the information needed in sparse_add_one_section() is node id to
allocate proper memory, it is not necessary to pass its pgdat.
This patch changes the prototype of sparse_add_one_section() to pass node
id directly. This is intended to reduce misleading that
sparse_add_one_section() would touch pgdat.

pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect pgdat's memory region information
like: node_start_pfn, node_present_pages, etc. While in function
sparse_add/remove_one_section(), pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect
initialization/release of one mem_section. This looks not proper.
These code paths are currently protected by mem_hotplug_lock currently but
should there ever be any reason for locking at the sparse layer a
dedicated lock should be introduced.
Following is the current call trace of sparse_add/remove_one_section()
mem_hotplug_begin()
arch_add_memory()
add_pages()
__add_pages()
__add_section()
sparse_add_one_section()
mem_hotplug_done()
mem_hotplug_begin()
arch_remove_memory()
__remove_pages()
__remove_section()
sparse_remove_one_section()
mem_hotplug_done()
The comment above the pgdat_resize_lock also mentions "Holding this will
also guarantee that any pfn_valid() stays that way.", which is true with
the current implementation and false after this patch. But current
implementation doesn't meet this comment. There isn't any pfn walkers to
take the lock so this looks like a relict from the past. This patch also
removes this comment.

Presently the arches arm64, arm and sh have a function which loops
through each memblock and calls memory present. riscv will require a
similar function.
Introduce a common memblocks_present() function that can be used by all
the arches. Subsequent patches will cleanup the arches that make use of
this.

When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment
is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES.
Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can
come as a surprise. Not that such an alignment would be wrong even
when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of
clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise.
Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter
explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment
in the memblock internal allocation functions.
For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g. like
iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with
Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where
appropriate.
The direct memblock APIs users were updated using the semantic patch below:

Patch series "Address issues slowing persistent memory initialization", v5.
The main thing this patch set achieves is that it allows us to initialize
each node worth of persistent memory independently. As a result we reduce
page init time by about 2 minutes because instead of taking 30 to 40
seconds per node and going through each node one at a time, we process all
4 nodes in parallel in the case of a 12TB persistent memory setup spread
evenly over 4 nodes.
This patch (of 3):
On systems with a large amount of memory it can take a significant amount
of time to initialize all of the page structs with the PAGE_POISON_PATTERN
value. I have seen it take over 2 minutes to initialize a system with
over 12TB of RAM.
In order to work around the issue I had to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and
then the boot time returned to something much more reasonable as the
arch_add_memory call completed in milliseconds versus seconds. However in
doing that I had to disable all of the other VM debugging on the system.
In order to work around a kernel that might have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled
on a system that has a large amount of memory I have added a new kernel
parameter named "vm_debug" that can be set to "-" in order to disable it.

sparse_init() requires to temporary allocate two large buffers: usemap_map
and map_map. Baoquan He has identified that these buffers are so large
that Linux is not bootable on small memory machines, such as a kdump boot.
The buffers are especially large when CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL is set, as they
are scaled to the maximum physical memory size.
Baoquan provided a fix, which reduces these sizes of these buffers, but it
is much better to get rid of them entirely.
Add a new way to initialize sparse memory: sparse_init_nid(), which only
operates within one memory node, and thus allocates memory either in large
contiguous block or allocates section by section. This eliminates the
need for use of temporary buffers.
For simplified bisecting and review temporarly call sparse_init()
new_sparse_init(), the new interface is going to be enabled as well as old
code removed in the next patch.

Patch series "sparse_init rewrite", v6.
In sparse_init() we allocate two large buffers to temporary hold usemap
and memmap for the whole machine. However, we can avoid doing that if
we changed sparse_init() to operated on per-node bases instead of doing
it on the whole machine beforehand.
As shown by Baoquan
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180628062857.29658-1-bhe@redhat.com
The buffers are large enough to cause machine stop to boot on small
memory systems.
Another benefit of these changes is that they also obsolete
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_ALLOC_MEM_MAP_TOGETHER.
This patch (of 5):
When struct pages are allocated for sparse-vmemmap VA layout, we first try
to allocate one large buffer, and than if that fails allocate struct pages
for each section as we go.
The code that allocates buffer is uses global variables and is spread
across several call sites.
Cleanup the code by introducing three functions to handle the global
buffer:
sparse_buffer_init() initialize the buffer
sparse_buffer_fini() free the remaining part of the buffer
sparse_buffer_alloc() alloc from the buffer, and if buffer is empty
return NULL
Define these functions in sparse.c instead of sparse-vmemmap.c because
later we will use them for non-vmemmap sparse allocations as well.

In sparse_init(), two temporary pointer arrays, usemap_map and map_map
are allocated with the size of NR_MEM_SECTIONS. They are used to store
each memory section's usemap and mem map if marked as present. With the
help of these two arrays, continuous memory chunk is allocated for
usemap and memmap for memory sections on one node. This avoids too many
memory fragmentations. Like below diagram, '1' indicates the present
memory section, '0' means absent one. The number 'n' could be much
smaller than NR_MEM_SECTIONS on most of systems.
|1|1|1|1|0|0|0|0|1|1|0|0|...|1|0||1|0|...|1||0|1|...|0|
-------------------------------------------------------
0 1 2 3 4 5 i i+1 n-1 n
If we fail to populate the page tables to map one section's memmap, its
->section_mem_map will be cleared finally to indicate that it's not
present. After use, these two arrays will be released at the end of
sparse_init().
In 4-level paging mode, each array costs 4M which can be ignorable.
While in 5-level paging, they costs 256M each, 512M altogether. Kdump
kernel Usually only reserves very few memory, e.g 256M. So, even thouth
they are temporarily allocated, still not acceptable.
In fact, there's no need to allocate them with the size of
NR_MEM_SECTIONS. Since the ->section_mem_map clearing has been deferred
to the last, the number of present memory sections are kept the same
during sparse_init() until we finally clear out the memory section's
->section_mem_map if its usemap or memmap is not correctly handled.
Thus in the middle whenever for_each_present_section_nr() loop is taken,
the i-th present memory section is always the same one.
Here only allocate usemap_map and map_map with the size of
'nr_present_sections'. For the i-th present memory section, install its
usemap and memmap to usemap_map[i] and mam_map[i] during allocation.
Then in the last for_each_present_section_nr() loop which clears the
failed memory section's ->section_mem_map, fetch usemap and memmap from
usemap_map[] and map_map[] array and set them into mem_section[]
accordingly.

In sparse_init(), if CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_ALLOC_MEM_MAP_TOGETHER=y, system
will allocate one continuous memory chunk for mem maps on one node and
populate the relevant page tables to map memory section one by one. If
fail to populate for a certain mem section, print warning and its
->section_mem_map will be cleared to cancel the marking of being
present. Like this, the number of mem sections marked as present could
become less during sparse_init() execution.
Here just defer the ms->section_mem_map clearing if failed to populate
its page tables until the last for_each_present_section_nr() loop. This
is in preparation for later optimizing the mem map allocation.

sparse_init()", v6.
In sparse_init(), two temporary pointer arrays, usemap_map and map_map
are allocated with the size of NR_MEM_SECTIONS. They are used to store
each memory section's usemap and mem map if marked as present. In
5-level paging mode, this will cost 512M memory though they will be
released at the end of sparse_init(). System with few memory, like
kdump kernel which usually only has about 256M, will fail to boot
because of allocation failure if CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y.
In this patchset, optimize the memmap allocation code to only use
usemap_map and map_map with the size of nr_present_sections. This makes
kdump kernel boot up with normal crashkernel='' setting when
CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y.
This patch (of 5):
nr_present_sections is used to record how many memory sections are
marked as present during system boot up, and will be used in the later
patch.

sparse_init_one_section() is being called from two sites: sparse_init()
and sparse_add_one_section(). The former calls it from a
for_each_present_section_nr() loop, and the latter marks the section as
present before calling it. This means that when
sparse_init_one_section() gets called, we already know that the section
is present. So there is no point to double check that in the function.
This removes the check and makes the function void.

When searching a present section, there are two boundaries:
* __highest_present_section_nr
* NR_MEM_SECTIONS
And it is known, __highest_present_section_nr is a more strict boundary
than NR_MEM_SECTIONS. This means it would be necessary to check
__highest_present_section_nr only.

Memory hotplug and hotremove operate with per-block granularity. If the
machine has a large amount of memory (more than 64G), the size of a
memory block can span multiple sections. By mistake, during hotremove
we set only the first section to offline state.
The bug was discovered because kernel selftest started to fail:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180423011247.GK5563@yexl-desktop
After commit, "mm/memory_hotplug: optimize probe routine". But, the bug
is older than this commit. In this optimization we also added a check
for sections to be in a proper state during hotplug operation.

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.

Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann:
"This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv,
m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device
drivers.
I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to
ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely
unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the
respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream,
but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users.
In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in
charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It
seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not
used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In
contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively
maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.
[ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next
generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU
microarchitecture and a software ecosystem" - Linus ]
The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I
made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile,
mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old
kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel
releases.
After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:
- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.
- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing
their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first
place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some
degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1.
Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation
will be similar
[ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc
since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum - Linus ]"
