I'm a little confused why HMAT has anything to do with this. SPM is defined either via the attribute in SRAT SPA entries, EF_MEMORY_SP or via the EFI memory map. Whether it is in HMAT or not isn't all that relevant. Back in the days of the reservation hint (so before yesterday :) it was relevant obviously but that's no longer true. So what am I missing?

It's a good question, and an assumption I should have explicitly declared in the changelog. The problem with EFI_MEMORY_SP is the same as the problem with the EfiPersistentMemory type, it isn't precise enough on its own for the kernel to delineate 'type' or device/replaceable-unit boundaries. For example, I expect one EFI_MEMORY_SP range of a specific type may be contiguous with another range of a different type. Similar to the NFIT there is no requirement in the specification that platform firmware inject multiple range entries. Instead that precision is left to the SRAT + HMAT, or the NFIT in the case of PMEM. Conversely, and thinking through this a bit more, if a memory range is "special", but the platform fails to enumerate it in HMAT I think Linux should scream loudly that the firmware is broken and leave the range alone. The "scream loudly" piece is missing in the current set, but the "leave the range alone" functionality is included.

I am certainly keen on screaming if the various entries are inconsistent but am not sure they necessarily are here. So there are a couple of ways we could get an SPM range defined. The key thing here is that firmware should be attempting to describe what it has to some degree somewhere. If not it won't get a good result ;) So if there is no SRAT then you are on your own. SCREAM! 1. Directly in the memory map. If there is no other information then tough luck the kernel can only sensibly handle it as one device. Or not at all, which seems like a reasonable decision to me. SCREAM 2. In memory map + a proximity domain entry in SRAT. Given memory with different characteristics should be in different proximity domains anyway - this should be fairly precise. The slight snag here is that the fine grained nature of SRAT is actually a side effect of HMAT, so not sure well platforms have traditional describe their more subtle differences. 3. In NFIT as NFIT SPA carries the memory attribute. Not sure if we should scream if this disagrees with the memory map. 4. In HMAT? Now this changed in ACPI 6.3 to clean up the 'messy' prior relationship between it and SRAT. Now HMAT no longer has memory address ranges as you observed. That means, to describe properties of memory, it has to use the proximity domains of SRAT. It provides lots of additional info about those domains but it is SRAT that defines them. So I would argue that HMAT itself doesn't tell us anything useful. SRAT certainly does though so I think this should be coming from SRAT (or NFIT as that also defines the required precision) Jonathan

However, do we, core Linux developers, really want to encourage platform vendors that they can ignore deploying HMAT data and get Linux to honor that sub-case for EFI_MEMORY_SP? My personal experience is that platform firmware will take advantage of almost any opportunity to minimize the data it provides to the OS. The only hard lever Linux has to encourage platform firmware to give complete data is to decline to support configurations that have incomplete data.

If we make this a clearly stated policy, perhaps via some comments in the code or Documentation/ that that would be even better and avoid people taking the 'but you could support my firmware' line in the future. I'll see if I can reach out to other OS vendors as well so we can present a unified front on this (perhaps after a few days, just in case we have any dissenting voices here!) Thanks, Jonathan

Since when did we let the firmware decide > who can use the memory? There's 2 related motivations for playing along with this "special purpose" attribute. Before this bit we've seen gross hacks in platform firmware trying to game OS behavior by lying about numa distances in the ACPI SLIT. For example "near" high bandwidth memory being set at a large distance to prevent the kernel from allocating from it by default as much as possible. Secondly, allow niche applications guarantees about being able to claim all of a given designated resource. The above comes with the option to override this default reservation and just turn it back over to the page allocator i.e. ignore the platform firmware hint. The alternative is arranging for "special purpose" memory to be given to the page allocator by default with the hope that it can be reserved / claimed early so the administrator can prevent unwanted allocations. It just seemed overall easier to "default reserve with the option to hot-add" instead of "default online with option / hope of hot-remove or early allocation".

Memory that has been tagged EFI_SPECIAL_PURPOSE, and has performance properties described by the ACPI HMAT is expected to have an application specific consumer. Those consumers may want 100% of the memory capacity to be reserved from any usage by the kernel. By default, with this enabling, a platform device is created to represent this differentiated resource. A follow on change arranges for device-dax to claim these devices by default and provide an mmap interface for the target application. However, if the administrator prefers that some or all of the special purpose memory is made available to the core-mm the device-dax hotplug facility can be used to online the memory with its own numa node.
