From 8a725e4694b52ffad755500277d36f3b2eb34755 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Hildenbrand Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2020 16:48:48 -0700 Subject: device-dax: add memory via add_memory_driver_managed() Currently, when adding memory, we create entries in /sys/firmware/memmap/ as "System RAM". This will lead to kexec-tools to add that memory to the fixed-up initial memmap for a kexec kernel (loaded via kexec_load()). The memory will be considered initial System RAM by the kexec'd kernel and can no longer be reconfigured. This is not what happens during a real reboot. Let's add our memory via add_memory_driver_managed() now, so we won't create entries in /sys/firmware/memmap/ and indicate the memory as "System RAM (kmem)" in /proc/iomem. This allows everybody (especially kexec-tools) to identify that this memory is special and has to be treated differently than ordinary (hotplugged) System RAM. Before configuring the namespace: [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/iomem ... 140000000-33fffffff : Persistent Memory 140000000-33fffffff : namespace0.0 3280000000-32ffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00 After configuring the namespace: [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/iomem ... 140000000-33fffffff : Persistent Memory 140000000-1481fffff : namespace0.0 148200000-33fffffff : dax0.0 3280000000-32ffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00 After loading kmem before this change: [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/iomem ... 140000000-33fffffff : Persistent Memory 140000000-1481fffff : namespace0.0 150000000-33fffffff : dax0.0 150000000-33fffffff : System RAM 3280000000-32ffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00 After loading kmem after this change: [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/iomem ... 140000000-33fffffff : Persistent Memory 140000000-1481fffff : namespace0.0 150000000-33fffffff : dax0.0 150000000-33fffffff : System RAM (kmem) 3280000000-32ffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00 After a proper reboot: [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/iomem ... 140000000-33fffffff : Persistent Memory 140000000-1481fffff : namespace0.0 148200000-33fffffff : dax0.0 3280000000-32ffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00 Within the kexec kernel before this change: [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/iomem ... 140000000-33fffffff : Persistent Memory 140000000-1481fffff : namespace0.0 150000000-33fffffff : System RAM 3280000000-32ffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00 Within the kexec kernel after this change: [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/iomem ... 140000000-33fffffff : Persistent Memory 140000000-1481fffff : namespace0.0 148200000-33fffffff : dax0.0 3280000000-32ffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00 /sys/firmware/memmap/ before this change: 0000000000000000-000000000009fc00 (System RAM) 000000000009fc00-00000000000a0000 (Reserved) 00000000000f0000-0000000000100000 (Reserved) 0000000000100000-00000000bffdf000 (System RAM) 00000000bffdf000-00000000c0000000 (Reserved) 00000000feffc000-00000000ff000000 (Reserved) 00000000fffc0000-0000000100000000 (Reserved) 0000000100000000-0000000140000000 (System RAM) 0000000150000000-0000000340000000 (System RAM) /sys/firmware/memmap/ after a proper reboot: 0000000000000000-000000000009fc00 (System RAM) 000000000009fc00-00000000000a0000 (Reserved) 00000000000f0000-0000000000100000 (Reserved) 0000000000100000-00000000bffdf000 (System RAM) 00000000bffdf000-00000000c0000000 (Reserved) 00000000feffc000-00000000ff000000 (Reserved) 00000000fffc0000-0000000100000000 (Reserved) 0000000100000000-0000000140000000 (System RAM) /sys/firmware/memmap/ after this change: 0000000000000000-000000000009fc00 (System RAM) 000000000009fc00-00000000000a0000 (Reserved) 00000000000f0000-0000000000100000 (Reserved) 0000000000100000-00000000bffdf000 (System RAM) 00000000bffdf000-00000000c0000000 (Reserved) 00000000feffc000-00000000ff000000 (Reserved) 00000000fffc0000-0000000100000000 (Reserved) 0000000100000000-0000000140000000 (System RAM) kexec-tools already seem to basically ignore any System RAM that's not on top level when searching for areas to place kexec images - but also for determining crash areas to dump via kdump. Changing the resource name won't have an impact. Handle unloading of the driver after memory hotremove failed properly, by duplicating the string if necessary.
