Changes since v5 [1]: - Move efi=nosoftreserve infrastructure to a common location. (Ard) - Define a common efi_soft_reserve_enabled() helper for efi stub code and runtime core efi. (Ard) - Add ARM support for honoring soft reservations (Ard) - Rename x86-fake_mem.c to x86_fake_mem.c. (Ard) - Rebase on v5.4-rc2 [1]: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/156712993795.1616117.3781864460118989466.stgit@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --- Merge notes: Hi Ingo, I'm targeting you since you piped on v5, and tip.git in general since the deepest changes are in x86 init code. The entanglements between tip.git and acpi.git that v5 hit have been resolved with what went upstream during the 5.4 merge window. This all still needs an ack from Ard to make sure he's on board with all the current changes, or otherwise spots some more fixups. The ARM changes have only been compile tested (0day-robot). The x86 changes, as mentioned below, have been boot tested with efi_fake_mem= on a QEMU config that produces an HMAT. --- The EFI 2.8 Specification [2] introduces the EFI_MEMORY_SP ("specific purpose") memory attribute. This attribute bit replaces the deprecated ACPI HMAT "reservation hint" that was introduced in ACPI 6.2 and removed in ACPI 6.3. Given the increasing diversity of memory types that might be advertised to the operating system, there is a need for platform firmware to hint which memory ranges are free for the OS to use as general purpose memory and which ranges are intended for application specific usage. For example, an application with prior knowledge of the platform may expect to be able to exclusively allocate a precious / limited pool of high bandwidth memory. Alternatively, for the general purpose case, the operating system may want to make the memory available on a best effort basis as a unique numa-node with performance properties by the new CONFIG_HMEM_REPORTING [3] facility. In support of optionally allowing either application-exclusive and core-kernel-mm managed access to differentiated memory, claim EFI_MEMORY_SP ranges for exposure as "soft reserved" and assigned to a device-dax instance by default. Such instances can be directly owned / mapped by a platform-topology-aware application. Alternatively, with the new kmem facility [4], the administrator has the option to instead designate that those memory ranges be hot-added to the core-kernel-mm as a unique memory numa-node. In short, allow for the decision about what software agent manages soft-reserved memory to be made at runtime. The patches build on the new HMAT+HMEM_REPORTING facilities merged for v5.2-rc1. The implementation is tested with qemu emulation of HMAT [5] plus the efi_fake_mem facility for applying the EFI_MEMORY_SP attribute. Specific details on reproducing the test configuration are in patch 12.
