Several related issues around this unneeded attribute:

- The dax_kmem_res property allows the kmem driver to stash the adjusted
  resource range that was used for the hotplug operation, but that can be
  recalculated from the original base range.

- kmem is using an open coded release_resource() + kfree() when an
  idiomatic release_mem_region() is sufficient.

- The driver managed resource need only manage the busy flag. Other flags
  are of no concern to the kmem driver. In fact if kmem inherits some
  memory range that add_memory_driver_managed() rejects that is a
  memory-hotplug-core policy that the driver is in no position to
  override.

- The implementation trusts that failed remove_memory() results in the
  entire resource range remaining pinned busy. The driver need not make
  that layering violation assumption and just maintain the busy state in
  its local resource.

- The "Hot-remove not yet implemented." comment is stale since hotremove
  support is now included.

I think some of these changes could have been nicely split out to
simplify reviewing. E.g., comment update, release_mem_region(),  &=
~IORESOURCE_BUSY ...

I think our range could be empty after aligning. I assume
request_mem_region() would check that, but maybe we could report a
better error/warning in that case.

Right, same approach is taken by virtio-mem.

Hm, I don't think that's correct. Any specific reason why to mark the
not-added, unaligned parts BUSY? E.g., walk_system_ram_range() could
suddenly stumble over it - and e.g., similarly kexec code when trying to
find memory for placing kexec images. I think we should leave this
!BUSY, just as it is right now.

remove_memory() does a release_mem_region_adjustable(). Don't you
actually want to release the *unaligned* region you requested?

Not sure if inverting the error handling improved the code / review here.

Maybe split some of these changes out. Would at least help me to review ;)

dax_kmem_range() already returns a memory-block-aligned @range but
IIUC request_mem_region() isn't checking for that. Having said that
the returned @res wouldn't be different from the passed range.start.

Better off would be to keep the old order:

	if (rc) {
		any_hotremove_failed = true;
		dev_err(dev, "%#llx-%#llx cannot be hotremoved until the next reboot\n",
				range.start, range.end);
	        return;
	}

	release_mem_region(range.start, range_len(&range));
	dev_set_drvdata(dev, NULL);
	kfree(res_name);
	return;

Isn't it what we're doing here?
(The release_mem_region_adjustable() is using the same
dax_kmem-aligned range and there's no split/adjust)

Meaning right now (+ parent marked as !BUSY), and if I am understanding
this correctly:

request_mem_region(range.start, range_len)
   __request_region(iomem_res, range.start, range_len) -> alloc @parent
add_memory_driver_managed(parent.start, resource_size(parent))
   __request_region(parent.start, resource_size(parent)) -> alloc @child

[...]

remove_memory(range.start, range_len)
 request_mem_region_adjustable(range.start, range_len)
  __release_region(range.start, range_len) -> remove @child

release_mem_region(range.start, range_len)
  __release_region(range.start, range_len) -> doesn't remove @parent because !BUSY?

The add/removal of this relies on !BUSY. But now I am wondering if the parent remaining
unreleased is deliberate even on CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE=y.

Oh, I think I was messing up things (there is just too much going on in
this patch).

Right, request_mem_region() and add_memory_driver_managed() are - and
were - called with the exact same range. That would have been clearer if
the patch would simply use range.start and range_len(&range) for both
calls (similar in the original code).

So, also the release calls have to use the same range. Agreed.

Interesting, I can only tell that virtio-mem expects that
remove_memory() won't remove the parent resource (which is !BUSY). So it
relies on the existing functionality.

I do wonder how walk_system_ram_range() behaves if both the parent and
the child are BUSY. Looking at it, I think it will detect the parent and
skip to the next range (without visiting the child) - which is not what
we want.

We could set the parent to BUSY just before doing the
release_mem_region() call, but that feels like a hack.

Maybe it's just easier to keep dax_kmem_res around ...

Thinking about it, if we don't set the parent resource BUSY (which is
what I think is the right way of doing things), and don't want to store
the parent resource pointer, we could add something like
lookup_resource() - e.g., lookup_mem_resource() - , however, searching
properly in the whole hierarchy (instead of only the first level), and
traversing down to the last hierarchy. Then it would be as simple as

remove_memory(range.start, range_len)
res = lookup_mem_resource(range.start);
release_resource(res);

Another thought... I notice that you've taught
register_memory_resource() a IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED special
case. Lets just make the assumption of add_memory_driver_managed()
that it is the driver's responsibility to mark the range busy before
calling, and the driver's responsibility to release the region. I.e.
validate (rather than request) that the range is busy in
register_memory_resource(), and teach release_memory_resource() to
skip releasing the region when the memory is marked driver managed.
That would let dax_kmem drop its manipulation of the 'busy' flag which
is a layering violation no matter how many comments we put around it.

IIUC, that won't work for virtio-mem, whereby the parent resource spans
multiple possible (future) add_memory_driver_managed() calls and is
(just like for kmem) a pure indication to which device memory ranges belong.

For example, when exposing 2GB via a virtio-mem device with max 4GB:

(/proc/iomem)
240000000-33fffffff : virtio0
  240000000-2bfffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)

And after hotplugging additional 2GB:

240000000-33fffffff : virtio0
  240000000-33fffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)

So marking "virtio0" always BUSY (especially right from the start) would
be wrong. The assumption is that anything that's IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM
and IORESOUCE_BUSY is currently added to the system as system RAM (e.g.,
after add_memory() and friends, or during boot).

I do agree that manually clearing the busy flag is ugly. What we most
probably want is request_mem_region() that performs similar checks (no
overlaps with existing BUSY resources), but doesn't set the region busy.

I'm not suggesting to busy the whole "virtio" range, just the portion
that's about to be passed to add_memory_driver_managed().

I can't see that working without some way to export and hold the
resource lock until some agent can atomically claim the range.

I'm afraid I don't get your point. For virtio-mem:

Before:

1. Create virtio0 container resource

2. (somewhen in the future) add_memory_driver_managed()
 - Create resource (System RAM (virtio_mem)), marking it busy/driver
   managed

After:

1. Create virtio0 container resource

2. (somewhen in the future) Create resource (System RAM (virtio_mem)),
   marking it busy/driver managed
3. add_memory_driver_managed()

Not helpful or simpler IMHO.

I don't think we have to care about races here. The "BUSY" checks is
really just a check for leftovers, e.g., after kexec or after driver
reloading. If somebody else would try to concurrently add System RAM
/something else within the range of your device, something else, very
weird, would be going on (let's call it a BUG, just like if somebody
would be removing system RAM in your device range ...).

For example, in case of virtio-mem, when you unload the driver, it
cannot remove the "virtio0" resource in case some system ram in the
range is still plugged (busy).

So when reloading the driver, it would try to re-create the virtio0
resource, detect that some system ram in the range is still BUSY, and
fail gracefully. This is how it works and how it's expected to work - at
least for virtio-mem.

I assume something similar can be observed with kmem, when trying to
reload the driver or similar - but races shouldn't be relevant here.

The concern I'm trying to address is the theoretical race window and
layering violation in this sequence in the kmem driver:

1/ res = request_mem_region(...);
2/ res->flags = IORESOURCE_MEM;
3/ add_memory_driver_managed();

Between 2/ and 3/ something can race and think that it owns the
region. Do I think it will happen in practice, no, but it's still a
pattern that deserves come cleanup.

I think in that unlikely event (rather impossible), add_memory_driver_managed() should fail, detecting a conflicting (busy) resource. Not sure what will happen next ( and did not double-check).

But yeah, the way the BUSY bit is cleared here is wrong - simply overwriting other bits. And it would be even better if we could avoid manually messing with flags here.

add_memory_driver_managed() will fail, but the release_mem_region() in
kmem to unwind on the error path will do the wrong thing because that
other driver thinks it got ownership of the region.

I'm ok to leave it alone for now (hasn't been and likely never will be
a problem in practice), but I think it was still worth grumbling
about. I'll leave that part of kmem alone in the upcoming split of
dax_kmem_res removal.

I think if somebody would race and claim the region for itself (after we
unchecked the BUSY flag), there would be another memory resource below
our resource container (e.g., via __request_region()).

So, interestingly, the current code will do a

release_resource->__release_resource(old, true);

which will remove whatever somebody added below the resource.

If we were to do a

remove_resource->__release_resource(old, false);

we would only remove what we temporarily added, relocating anychildren
(someone nasty added).

But yeah, I don't think we have to worry about this case.

Definitely, it gives us a better understanding.

Yeah, stuff is more complicated than I would wished, so I guess it's
better to leave it alone for now until we actually see issues with
somebody else regarding *our* device-owned region (or we're able to come
up with a cleanup that keeps all corner cases working for kmem and
virtio-mem).
