From: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <yasu.isimatu@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: memory_hotplug: make zone_can_shift() return a boolean value online_{kernel|movable} is used to change the memory zone to ZONE_{NORMAL|MOVABLE} and online the memory. To check that memory zone can be changed, zone_can_shift() is used. Currently the function returns minus integer value, plus integer value and 0. When the function returns minus or plus integer value, it means that the memory zone can be changed to ZONE_{NORNAL|MOVABLE}. But when the function returns 0, there is 2 meanings. One of the meanings is that the memory zone does not need to be changed. For example, when memory is in ZONE_NORMAL and onlined by online_kernel the memory zone does not need to be changed. Another meaning is that the memory zone cannot be changed. When memory is in ZONE_NORMAL and onlined by online_movable, the memory zone may not be changed to ZONE_MOVALBE due to memory online limitation(see Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt). In this case, memory must not be onlined. The patch changes the return type of zone_can_shift() so that memory online operation fails when memory zone cannot be changed as follows: Before applying patch: # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo Node 2, zone Normal <snip> node_scanned 0 spanned 8388608 present 7864320 managed 7864320 # echo online_movable > memory4097/state # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo Node 2, zone Normal <snip> node_scanned 0 spanned 8388608 present 8388608 managed 8388608 online_movable operation succeeded. But memory is onlined as ZONE_NORMAL, not ZONE_MOVABLE. After applying patch: # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo Node 2, zone Normal <snip> node_scanned 0 spanned 8388608 present 7864320 managed 7864320 # echo online_movable > memory4097/state bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo Node 2, zone Normal <snip> node_scanned 0 spanned 8388608 present 7864320 managed 7864320 online_movable operation failed because of failure of changing the memory zone from ZONE_NORMAL to ZONE_MOVABLE Fixes: df429ac03936 ("memory-hotplug: more general validation of zone during online") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/2f9c3837-33d7-b6e5-59c0-6ca4372b2d84@xxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Reza Arbab <arbab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/base/memory.c | 4 ++-- include/linux/memory_hotplug.h | 4 ++-- mm/memory_hotplug.c | 28 +++++++++++++++++----------- 3 files changed, 21 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) diff -puN drivers/base/memory.c~memory_hotplug-zone_can_shift-returns-boolean-value drivers/base/memory.c --- a/drivers/base/memory.c~memory_hotplug-zone_can_shift-returns-boolean-value +++ a/drivers/base/memory.c @@ -408,14 +408,14 @@ static ssize_t show_valid_zones(struct d sprintf(buf, "%s", zone->name); /* MMOP_ONLINE_KERNEL */ - zone_shift = zone_can_shift(start_pfn, nr_pages, ZONE_NORMAL); + zone_can_shift(start_pfn, nr_pages, ZONE_NORMAL, &zone_shift); if (zone_shift) { strcat(buf, " "); strcat(buf, (zone + zone_shift)->name); } /* MMOP_ONLINE_MOVABLE */ - zone_shift = zone_can_shift(start_pfn, nr_pages, ZONE_MOVABLE); + zone_can_shift(start_pfn, nr_pages, ZONE_MOVABLE, &zone_shift); if (zone_shift) { strcat(buf, " "); strcat(buf, (zone + zone_shift)->name); diff -puN include/linux/memory_hotplug.h~memory_hotplug-zone_can_shift-returns-boolean-value include/linux/memory_hotplug.h --- a/include/linux/memory_hotplug.h~memory_hotplug-zone_can_shift-returns-boolean-value +++ a/include/linux/memory_hotplug.h @@ -284,7 +284,7 @@ extern void sparse_remove_one_section(st unsigned long map_offset); extern struct page *sparse_decode_mem_map(unsigned long coded_mem_map, unsigned long pnum); -extern int zone_can_shift(unsigned long pfn, unsigned long nr_pages, - enum zone_type target); +extern bool zone_can_shift(unsigned long pfn, unsigned long nr_pages, + enum zone_type target, int *zone_shift); #endif /* __LINUX_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_H */ diff -puN mm/memory_hotplug.c~memory_hotplug-zone_can_shift-returns-boolean-value mm/memory_hotplug.c --- a/mm/memory_hotplug.c~memory_hotplug-zone_can_shift-returns-boolean-value +++ a/mm/memory_hotplug.c @@ -1033,36 +1033,39 @@ static void node_states_set_node(int nod node_set_state(node, N_MEMORY); } -int zone_can_shift(unsigned long pfn, unsigned long nr_pages, - enum zone_type target) +bool zone_can_shift(unsigned long pfn, unsigned long nr_pages, + enum zone_type target, int *zone_shift) { struct zone *zone = page_zone(pfn_to_page(pfn)); enum zone_type idx = zone_idx(zone); int i; + *zone_shift = 0; + if (idx < target) { /* pages must be at end of current zone */ if (pfn + nr_pages != zone_end_pfn(zone)) - return 0; + return false; /* no zones in use between current zone and target */ for (i = idx + 1; i < target; i++) if (zone_is_initialized(zone - idx + i)) - return 0; + return false; } if (target < idx) { /* pages must be at beginning of current zone */ if (pfn != zone->zone_start_pfn) - return 0; + return false; /* no zones in use between current zone and target */ for (i = target + 1; i < idx; i++) if (zone_is_initialized(zone - idx + i)) - return 0; + return false; } - return target - idx; + *zone_shift = target - idx; + return true; } /* Must be protected by mem_hotplug_begin() */ @@ -1089,10 +1092,13 @@ int __ref online_pages(unsigned long pfn !can_online_high_movable(zone)) return -EINVAL; - if (online_type == MMOP_ONLINE_KERNEL) - zone_shift = zone_can_shift(pfn, nr_pages, ZONE_NORMAL); - else if (online_type == MMOP_ONLINE_MOVABLE) - zone_shift = zone_can_shift(pfn, nr_pages, ZONE_MOVABLE); + if (online_type == MMOP_ONLINE_KERNEL) { + if (!zone_can_shift(pfn, nr_pages, ZONE_NORMAL, &zone_shift)) + return -EINVAL; + } else if (online_type == MMOP_ONLINE_MOVABLE) { + if (!zone_can_shift(pfn, nr_pages, ZONE_MOVABLE, &zone_shift)) + return -EINVAL; + } zone = move_pfn_range(zone_shift, pfn, pfn + nr_pages); if (!zone) _ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
