<content type='text'>
In update_lmb_associativity_index() we lookup dr_node using
of_find_node_by_path() which takes a reference for us. In the
non-error case we forget to drop the reference. Note that
find_aa_index() does modify properties of the node, but doesn't need
an extra reference held once it's returned.

<title>powerpc/fadump: Do not allow hot-remove memory from fadump reserved area.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0db6896ff6332ba694f1e61b93ae3b2640317633</id>
<content type='text'>
For fadump to work successfully there should not be any holes in reserved
memory ranges where kernel has asked firmware to move the content of old
kernel memory in event of crash. Now that fadump uses CMA for reserved
area, this memory area is now not protected from hot-remove operations
unless it is cma allocated. Hence, fadump service can fail to re-register
after the hot-remove operation, if hot-removed memory belongs to fadump
reserved region. To avoid this make sure that memory from fadump reserved
area is not hot-removable if fadump is registered.

However, if user still wants to remove that memory, he can do so by
manually stopping fadump service before hot-remove operation.

Remove directly accessing device_node.type pointer and use the
accessors instead. This will eventually allow removing the type
pointer.

Replace the open coded iterating over child nodes with
for_each_child_of_node() while we're here.

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: make add_memory() take the device_hotplug_lock</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=8df1d0e4a265f25dc1e7e7624ccdbcb4a6630c89'/>
<id>urn:sha1:8df1d0e4a265f25dc1e7e7624ccdbcb4a6630c89</id>
<content type='text'>
add_memory() currently does not take the device_hotplug_lock, however
is aleady called under the lock from
	arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/hotplug-memory.c
	drivers/acpi/acpi_memhotplug.c
to synchronize against CPU hot-remove and similar.

In general, we should hold the device_hotplug_lock when adding memory to
synchronize against online/offline request (e.g.  from user space) - which
already resulted in lock inversions due to device_lock() and
mem_hotplug_lock - see 30467e0b3be ("mm, hotplug: fix concurrent memory
hot-add deadlock").  add_memory()/add_memory_resource() will create memory
block devices, so this really feels like the right thing to do.

Holding the device_hotplug_lock makes sure that a memory block device
can really only be accessed (e.g. via .online/.state) from user space,
once the memory has been fully added to the system.

The lock is not held yet in
	drivers/xen/balloon.c
	arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/memtrace.c
	drivers/s390/char/sclp_cmd.c
	drivers/hv/hv_balloon.c
So, let's either use the locked variants or take the lock.

Don't export add_memory_resource(), as it once was exported to be used by
XEN, which is never built as a module.  If somebody requires it, we also
have to export a locked variant (as device_hotplug_lock is never
exported).

<id>urn:sha1:d15e59260f62bd5e0f625cf5f5240f6ffac78ab6</id>
<content type='text'>
Patch series "mm: online/offline_pages called w.o. mem_hotplug_lock", v3.

Reading through the code and studying how mem_hotplug_lock is to be used,
I noticed that there are two places where we can end up calling
device_online()/device_offline() - online_pages()/offline_pages() without
the mem_hotplug_lock.  And there are other places where we call
device_online()/device_offline() without the device_hotplug_lock.

While e.g.
	echo "online" &gt; /sys/devices/system/memory/memory9/state
is fine, e.g.
	echo 1 &gt; /sys/devices/system/memory/memory9/online
Will not take the mem_hotplug_lock. However the device_lock() and
device_hotplug_lock.

E.g.  via memory_probe_store(), we can end up calling
add_memory()-&gt;online_pages() without the device_hotplug_lock.  So we can
have concurrent callers in online_pages().  We e.g.  touch in
online_pages() basically unprotected zone-&gt;present_pages then.

Looks like there is a longer history to that (see Patch #2 for details),
and fixing it to work the way it was intended is not really possible.  We
would e.g.  have to take the mem_hotplug_lock in device/base/core.c, which
sounds wrong.

Summary: We had a lock inversion on mem_hotplug_lock and device_lock().
More details can be found in patch 3 and patch 6.

I propose the general rules (documentation added in patch 6):

1. add_memory/add_memory_resource() must only be called with
   device_hotplug_lock.
2. remove_memory() must only be called with device_hotplug_lock. This is
   already documented and holds for all callers.
3. device_online()/device_offline() must only be called with
   device_hotplug_lock. This is already documented and true for now in core
   code. Other callers (related to memory hotplug) have to be fixed up.
4. mem_hotplug_lock is taken inside of add_memory/remove_memory/
   online_pages/offline_pages.

To me, this looks way cleaner than what we have right now (and easier to
verify).  And looking at the documentation of remove_memory, using
lock_device_hotplug also for add_memory() feels natural.

This patch (of 6):

remove_memory() is exported right now but requires the
device_hotplug_lock, which is not exported.  So let's provide a variant
that takes the lock and only export that one.

The lock is already held in
	arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/hotplug-memory.c
	drivers/acpi/acpi_memhotplug.c
	arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/memtrace.c

Apart from that, there are not other users in the tree.

update_lmb_associativity_index(), but find_aa_index() may return -1
when dlpar_clone_property() fails. So change find_aa_index() to return
a bool, which indicates whether 'aa_index' was found or not.

<title>powerpc/pseries/memory-hotplug: Only update DT once per memory DLPAR request</title>

<id>urn:sha1:063b8b1251fd069f3740339fca56119d218f11ba</id>
<content type='text'>
The updates to powerpc numa and memory hotplug code now use the
in-kernel LMB array instead of the device tree. This change allows the
pseries memory DLPAR code to only update the device tree once after
successfully handling a DLPAR request.

Prior to the in-kernel LMB array, the numa code looked up the affinity
for memory being added in the device tree, the code now looks this up
in the LMB array. This change means the memory hotplug code can just
update the affinity for an LMB in the LMB array instead of updating
the device tree.

This also provides a savings in kernel memory. When updating the
device tree old properties are never free'ed since there is no
usecount on properties. This behavior leads to a new copy of the
property being allocated every time a LMB is added or removed (i.e. a
request to add 100 LMBs creates 100 new copies of the property). With
this update only a single new property is created when a DLPAR request
completes successfully.

In addition, the struct is renamed to of_drconf_cell_v1 in
anticipation of upcoming support for version 2 of the dynamic

<id>urn:sha1:6195a5001f1d11e1ff6a7e47a865f4b42c1bb28c</id>
<content type='text'>
Update the pseries memory hotplug code to use the newly added
dynamic reconfiguration LMB array. Doing this is required for the
upcoming support of version 2 of the dynamic reconfiguration
device tree property.

In addition, making this change cleans up the code that parses the
LMB information as we no longer need to worry about device tree
format. This allows us to discard one of the first steps on memory
hotplug where we make a working copy of the device tree property and
convert the entire property to cpu format. Instead we just use the
LMB array directly while holding the memory hotplug lock.

This patch also moves the updating of the device tree property to
powerpc/mm/drmem.c. This allows to the hotplug code to work without
needing to know the device tree format and provides a single
routine for updating the device tree property. This new routine
will handle determination of the proper device tree format and
generate a properly formatted device tree property.

in order to avoid any unnecessary rtas calls. This substantially
reduces the running time of memory hot add on lpars with large amounts
of memory.

[mpe: We need to explicitly set rc to 0 in the success case, otherwise
 the compiler might think we use rc without initialising it.]
