I encountered this bug when using /proc/kcore to examine the kernel. Plus a
coworker inquired about debugging tools. We computed pa but did
not use it during the maximum physical address bits test. Instead we used
the identity mapped virtual address which will always fail this test.
I believe the defect came in here:

In add_node_ranges() when memblock resize happens, the iterator keeps using
the previous freed array. This bug cause hangs on machine where there are
over 128 memory blocks during boot. For example, on machines where memory
interleaving is small.
The problem is seen on T4-4 because it cant have 2T of memory, and memory
is interleaved at 8G. So we have 2T/8G = 256 regions to set node IDs. The
starting size of regions array is 128. Thus, we have to double at least one
time (actually we have to double twice because some memory is already
reserved and thus we need more than 256 regions). We start using an
incorrect pointer to the array after the first doubling.

add_node_ranges() takes 2.6s - 3.6s per 1T of boot time. On machine with 6T
memory it takes 15.4s, on 32T it would take 82s-115s of boot time.
This function sets NUMA ids for memory blocks, and scans the whole memory a
page at a time to do so. But, we could use values in latency groups mask
and match to determine the boundaries without checking every single page.
With the fix the add_node_ranges() time is reduced from 15.4s down to 0.2s
on machine with 6T memory.

Add support for using multiple hugepage sizes simultaneously
on mainline. Currently, support for 256M has been added which
can be used along with 8M pages.
Page tables are set like this (e.g. for 256M page):
VA + (8M * x) -> PA + (8M * x) (sz bit = 256M) where x in [0, 31]
and TSB is set similarly:
VA + (4M * x) -> PA + (4M * x) (sz bit = 256M) where x in [0, 63]
- Testing
Tested on Sonoma (which supports 256M pages) by running stream

It is because linux use an internal structure node_masks[] to
keep the best memory latency node only. However, LDOM mdesc can
contain single latency-group with multiple memory latency nodes.
If the address doesn't match the best latency node within
node_masks[], it should check for an alternative via mdesc.
The warning message should only be printed if the address
doesn't match any node_masks[] nor within mdesc. To minimize
the impact of searching mdesc every time, the last matched
mask and index is stored in a variable.

do_sparc64_fault() calculates both the base and huge page RSS sizes and
uses this information in calls to tsb_grow(). The calculation for base
page TSB size is not correct if the task uses hugetlb pages. hugetlb
pages are not accounted for in RSS, therefore the call to get_mm_rss(mm)
does not include hugetlb pages. However, the number of pages based on
huge_pte_count (which does include hugetlb pages) is subtracted from
this value. This will result in an artificially small and often negative
RSS calculation. The base TSB size is then often set to max_tsb_size
as the passed RSS is unsigned, so a negative value looks really big.
THP pages are also accounted for in huge_pte_count, and THP pages are
accounted for in RSS so the calculation in do_sparc64_fault() is correct
if a task only uses THP pages.
A single huge_pte_count is not sufficient for TSB sizing if both hugetlb
and THP pages can be used. Instead of a single counter, use two: one
for hugetlb and one for THP.

This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have
basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending
it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step
and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
hopefully.
Motivation:
While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
__GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and
always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a
copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
documented as
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could
reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
for ever. This is not implemented right now though.
I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
for it.
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
111
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
36
So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining
places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later
after all the simple ones are sorted out.
I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to
review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually
hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
arch maintainers.
[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org
This patch (of 19):
__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we
have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to
identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a
recoverable machine check. Linux has included code for some time to
process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover
completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by
reading from disk).
But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code
execution. Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever
be able to recover.
Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing.
Gen1: All memory is mirrored
Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the
mirror
Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications
Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers
Pro: Keep more of the capacity
Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from
mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance
Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory
controller
Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance
Con: I have to write memory management code to implement
The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations.
This has been broken into two phases:
1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time
allocations
2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the
unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to
select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because
page_alloc.c is scary).

Introduce faulthandler_disabled() and use it to check for irq context and
disabled pagefaults (via pagefault_disable()) in the pagefault handlers.
Please note that we keep the in_atomic() checks in place - to detect
whether in irq context (in which case preemption is always properly
disabled).
In contrast, preempt_disable() should never be used to disable pagefaults.
With !CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, preempt_disable() doesn't modify the preempt
counter, and therefore the result of in_atomic() differs.
We validate that condition by using might_fault() checks when calling
might_sleep().
Therefore, add a comment to faulthandler_disabled(), describing why this
is needed.
faulthandler_disabled() and pagefault_disable() are defined in
linux/uaccess.h, so let's properly add that include to all relevant files.

If max_phys_bits needs to be > 43 (f.e. for T4 chips), things like
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC stop working because the 3-level page tables only
can cover up to 43 bits.
Another problem is that when we increased MAX_PHYS_ADDRESS_BITS up to
47, several statically allocated tables became enormous.
Compounding this is that we will need to support up to 49 bits of
physical addressing for M7 chips.
The two tables in question are sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap and
kpte_linear_bitmap.
The first holds a bitmap, with 1 bit for each 4MB chunk of physical
memory, indicating whether that chunk actually exists in the machine
and is valid.
The second table is a set of 2-bit values which tell how large of a
mapping (4MB, 256MB, 2GB, 16GB, respectively) we can use at each 256MB
chunk of ram in the system.
These tables are huge and take up an enormous amount of the BSS
section of the sparc64 kernel image. Specifically, the
sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap is 4MB, and the kpte_linear_bitmap is 128K.
So let's solve the space wastage and the DEBUG_PAGEALLOC problem
at the same time, by using the kernel page tables (as designed) to
manage this information.
We have to keep using large mappings when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is disabled,
and we do this by encoding huge PMDs and PUDs.
On a T4-2 with 256GB of ram the kernel page table takes up 16K with
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC disabled and 256MB with it enabled. Furthermore, this
memory is dynamically allocated at run time rather than coded
statically into the kernel image.

The "mem" boot option can result in many unexpected consequences. This patch
attempts to prevent boot hangs which have been experienced on T4-4 and T5-8.
Basically the boot loader allocates vmlinuz and initrd higher in available
OBP physical memory. For example, on a 2Tb T5-8 it isn't possible to boot
with mem=20G.
The patch utilizes memblock to avoid reserved regions and trim memory which
is only free. Other improvements are possible for a multi-node machine.
This is a snippet of the boot log with mem=20G on T5-8 with the patch applied:

We have seen an issue with guest boot into LDOM that causes early boot failures
because of no matching rules for node identitity of the memory. I analyzed this
on my T4 and concluded there might not be a solution. I saw the issue in
mainline too when booting into the control/primary domain - with guests
configured. Note, this could be a firmware bug on some older machines.
I'll provide a full explanation of the issues below. Should we not find a
matching BEST latency group for a real address (RA) then we will assume node 0.
On the T4-2 here with the information provided I can't see an alternative.
Technically the LDOM shown below should match the MBLOCK to the
favorable latency group. However other factors must be considered too. Were
the memory controllers configured "fine" grained interleave or "coarse"
grain interleaved - T4. Also should a "group" MD node be considered a NUMA
node?
There has to be at least one Machine Description (MD) "group" and hence one
NUMA node. The group can have one or more latency groups (lg) - more than one
memory controller. The current code chooses the smallest latency as the most
favorable per group. The latency and lg information is in MLGROUP below.
MBLOCK is the base and size of the RAs for the machine as fetched from OBP
/memory "available" property. My machine has one MBLOCK but more would be
possible - with holes?
For a T4-2 the following information has been gathered:

(note: "base" and "size" reported in "MBLOCK" encompass the "memory[X]" values)
(note: (RA + offset) & mask = val is the formula to detect a match for the
memory controller. should there be no match for find_node node, a return
value of -1 resulted for the node - BAD)
There is one group. It has these forward links
MLGROUP[1]: node[545] latency[1f7e8] match[200000000] mask[200000000]

Based almost entirely upon a patch by Christopher Alexander Tobias
Schulze.
In commit db64fe0225 ("mm: rewrite vmap
layer") lazy VMAP tlb flushing was added to the vmalloc layer. This
causes problems on sparc64.
Sparc64 has two VMAP mapped regions and they are not contiguous with
eachother. First we have the malloc mapping area, then another
unrelated region, then the vmalloc region.
This "another unrelated region" is where the firmware is mapped.
If the lazy TLB flushing logic in the vmalloc code triggers after
we've had both a module unload and a vfree or similar, it will pass an
address range that goes from somewhere inside the malloc region to
somewhere inside the vmalloc region, and thus covering the
openfirmware area entirely.
The sparc64 kernel learns about openfirmware's dynamic mappings in
this region early in the boot, and then services TLB misses in this
area. But openfirmware has some locked TLB entries which are not
mentioned in those dynamic mappings and we should thus not disturb
them.
These huge lazy TLB flush ranges causes those openfirmware locked TLB
entries to be removed, resulting in all kinds of problems including
hard hangs and crashes during reboot/reset.
Besides causing problems like this, such huge TLB flush ranges are
also incredibly inefficient. A plea has been made with the author of
the VMAP lazy TLB flushing code, but for now we'll put a safety guard
into our flush_tlb_kernel_range() implementation.
Since the implementation has become non-trivial, stop defining it as a
macro and instead make it a function in a C source file.

The assumption was that update_mmu_cache() (and the equivalent for PMDs) would
only be called when the PTE being installed will be accessible by the user.
This is not true for code paths originating from remove_migration_pte().
There are dire consequences for placing a non-valid PTE into the TSB. The TLB
miss frramework assumes thatwhen a TSB entry matches we can just load it into
the TLB and return from the TLB miss trap.
So if a non-valid PTE is in there, we will deadlock taking the TLB miss over
and over, never satisfying the miss.
Just exit early from update_mmu_cache() and friends in this situation.
