Hi,

These patches aim to remove CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE and essentially hardwire
pfn_valid_within() to 1. 

The idea is to mark NOMAP pages as reserved in the memory map and restore
the intended semantics of pfn_valid() to designate availability of struct
page for a pfn.

With this the core mm will be able to cope with the fact that it cannot use
NOMAP pages and the holes created by NOMAP ranges within MAX_ORDER blocks
will be treated correctly even without the need for pfn_valid_within.

The patches are only boot tested on qemu-system-aarch64 so I'd really
appreciate memory stress tests on real hardware.

If this actually works we'll be one step closer to drop custom pfn_valid()
on arm64 altogether.

v2:
* Add check for PFN overflow in pfn_is_map_memory()
* Add Acked-by and Reviewed-by tags, thanks David.

v1: Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210420090925.7457-1-rppt@kernel.org
* Add comment about the semantics of pfn_valid() as Anshuman suggested
* Extend comments about MEMBLOCK_NOMAP, per Anshuman
* Use pfn_is_map_memory() name for the exported wrapper for
  memblock_is_map_memory(). It is still local to arch/arm64 in the end
  because of header dependency issues.

Hi Mike,I have a question, without HOLES_IN_ZONE, the pfn_valid_within() 
in move_freepages_block()->move_freepages()
will be optimized, if there are holes in zone, the 'struce page'(memory 
map) for pfn range of hole will be free by
free_memmap(), and then the page traverse in the zone(with holes) from 
move_freepages() will meet the wrong page,
then it could panic at PageLRU(page) test, check link[1],

"The idea is to mark NOMAP pages as reserved in the memory map", I see 
the patch2 check memblock_is_nomap() in memory region
of memblock, but it seems that memblock_mark_nomap() is not called(maybe 
I missed), then memmap_init_reserved_pages() won't
work, so should the HOLES_IN_ZONE still be needed for generic mm code?

First, HOLES_IN_ZONE name us hugely misleading, this configuration option
has nothing to to with memory holes, but rather it is there to deal with
holes or undefined struct pages in the memory map, when these holes can be
inside a MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES region.

In general pfn walkers use pfn_valid() and pfn_valid_within() to avoid
accessing *missing* struct pages, like those that are freed at
free_memmap(). But on arm64 these tests also filter out the nomap entries
because their struct pages are not initialized.

The panic you refer to happened because there was an uninitialized struct
page in the middle of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES region because it corresponded to
nomap memory.

With these changes I make sure that such pages will be properly initialized
as PageReserved and the pfn walkers will be able to rely on the memory map.

Note also, that free_memmap() aligns the parts being freed on MAX_ORDER
boundaries, so there will be no missing parts in the memory map within a
MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES region.

Ok, thanks, we met a same panic like the link on arm32(without 
HOLES_IN_ZONE),

the scheme for arm64 could be suit for arm32, right?  I will try the 
patchset with

some changes on arm32 and give some feedback.

Again, the stupid question, where will mark the region of memblock with

MEMBLOCK_NOMAP flag ?

I tested this patchset(plus arm32 change, like arm64 does) based on lts 
5.10,add

some debug log, the useful info shows below, if we enable HOLES_IN_ZONE, 
no panic,

any idea, thanks.

In general yes. You just need to make sure that usage of pfn_valid() in
arch/arm does not presume that it tests something beyond availability of
struct page for a pfn.

Not sure I understand the question. The memory regions with "nomap"
property in the device tree will be marked MEMBLOCK_NOMAP.

Are there any changes on top of 5.10 except for pfn_valid() patch?
Do you see this panic on 5.10 without the changes?
Can you see stack backtrace beyond move_freepages_block?

Yes, there are some BSP support for arm board based on 5.10, with or 
without

your patch will get same panic, the panic pfn=de600 in the range of 
[dcc00,de00]

which is freed by free_memmap, start_pfn = dcc00,  dcc00000 end_pfn = 
de700, de700000

we see the PC is at PageLRU, same reason like arm64 panic log,

"PageBuddy in move_freepages returns false Then we call PageLRU, the 
macro calls PF_HEAD which is compound_page() compound_page reads 
page->compound_head, it is 0xffffffffffffffff, so it resturns 
0xfffffffffffffffe - and accessing this address causes crash"

I do some oom test, so the log is about memory allocate,

Hmm, this is called with a page from free list, having a page from a freed
part of the memory map passed to steal_suitable_fallback() means that there
is an issue with creation of the free list.

Can you please add "memblock=debug" to the kernel command line and post the
log?

It seems that with SPARSEMEM we don't align the freed parts on pageblock
boundaries.

Can you try the patch below:

Is this the same panic at move_freepages() for range [de600, de7ff]?

Do you enable CONFIG_ARM_LPAE?

no, the CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is not set, and yes with same panic at 
move_freepages at

start_pfn/end_pfn [de600, de7ff], [de600000, de7ff000] :  pfn =de600, 
page =ef3cc000, page-flags = ffffffff,  pfn2phy = de600000

the __free_memory_core will check the start pfn and end pfn,

  if (start_pfn >= end_pfn)
          return 0;

  __free_pages_memory(start_pfn, end_pfn);
so the memory will not be freed to buddy, confused...

Hmm, [de600, de7ff] is not added to the free lists which is correct. But
then it's unclear how the page for de600 gets to move_freepages()...

Can't say I have any bright ideas to try here...

It's a check for range validity, all valid ranges are added.

Are we missing some checks (e.g., PageReserved()) that 
pfn_valid_within() would have "caught" before?

Unless I'm missing something the crash happens in __rmqueue_fallback():

do_steal:
	page = get_page_from_free_area(area, fallback_mt);

	steal_suitable_fallback(zone, page, alloc_flags, start_migratetype,
								can_steal);
		-> move_freepages() 
			-> BUG()

So a page from free area should be sane as the freed range was never added
it to the free lists.

And honestly, with the memory layout reported elsewhere in the stack I'd
say that the bootloader/fdt beg for fixes...

Sorry for the late response due to the vacation.

The pfn in range [de600, de7ff] won't be added into the free lists via 
__free_memory_core(), but the pfn could be added into freelists via 
free_highmem_page()

I add some debug[1] in add_to_free_list(), we could see the calltrace

If pfn = 0xde700, due to the pageblock_nr_pages = 0x200, then the 
start_pfn,end_pfn passed to move_freepages() will be [de600, de7ff],
but the range of [de600,de700] without ‘struct page' will lead to
this panic when pfn_valid_within not enabled if no HOLES_IN_ZONE,
and the same issue will occurred in isolate_freepages_block(), maybe
there are some scene, so I select HOLES_IN_ZONE in ARCH_HISI(ARM) to 
solve this issue in our 5.10, should we select HOLES_IN_ZONE in all ARM 
or only in ARCH_HISI, any better solution?  Thanks.

I think your analysis is correct except one minor detail. With the #ifdef
fix I've proposed earlieri [1] the memmap for [0xde600, 0xde700] should not
be freed so there should be a struct page. Did you check what parts of the
memmap are actually freed with this patch applied?
Would you get a panic if you add

	dump_page(pfn_to_page(0xde600), "");

say, in the end of memblock_free_all()?

I don't think that HOLES_IN_ZONE is the right solution. I believe that we
must keep the memory map aligned on pageblock boundaries. That's surely not the
case for SPARSEMEM as of now, and if my fix is not enough we need to find
where it went wrong.

Besides, I'd say that if it is possible to update your firmware to make the
memory layout reported to the kernel less, hmm, esoteric, you would hit
less corner cases.

The memory is not continuous, see MEMBLOCK:
  memory size = 0x4c0fffff reserved size = 0x027ef058
  memory.cnt  = 0xa
  memory[0x0]    [0x80a00000-0x855fffff], 0x04c00000 bytes flags: 0x0
  memory[0x1]    [0x86a00000-0x87dfffff], 0x01400000 bytes flags: 0x0
  memory[0x2]    [0x8bd00000-0x8c4fffff], 0x00800000 bytes flags: 0x0
  memory[0x3]    [0x8e300000-0x8ecfffff], 0x00a00000 bytes flags: 0x0
  memory[0x4]    [0x90d00000-0xbfffffff], 0x2f300000 bytes flags: 0x0
  memory[0x5]    [0xcc000000-0xdc9fffff], 0x10a00000 bytes flags: 0x0
  memory[0x6]    [0xde700000-0xde9fffff], 0x00300000 bytes flags: 0x0
...

The pfn_range [0xde600,0xde700] => addr_range [0xde600000,0xde700000]
is not available memory, and we won't create memmap , so with or without 
your patch, we can't see the range in free_memmap(), right?

Sorry, memory layout is customized and we can't change it, some memory 
is for special purposes by our production.

This is not available memory and we won't see the reange in free_memmap(),
but we still should create memmap for it and that's what my patch tried to
do.

There are a lot of places in core mm that operate on pageblocks and
free_unused_memmap() should make sure that any pageblock has a valid memory
map.

Currently, that's not the case when SPARSEMEM=y and my patch tried to fix
it.

Can you please send log with my patch applied and with the printing of
ranges that are freed in free_unused_memmap() you've used in previous
mails?

I understand that this memory cannot be used by Linux, but the firmware may
supply the kernel with actual physical memory layout and then mark all
the special purpose memory that kernel should not touch as reserved.

We only can modify kernel, so it is not practicable for our production, 
and this way looks like a workaround, we need find a way to solve the 
issue from kernel side.

It seems that freeing of the memory map is suboptimal still because that
code was not designed for memory layout that has more holes than Swiss
cheese. 

Still, the range [0xde600,0xde700] is not freed and there should be struct
pages for this range.

Can you add 

	dump_page(pfn_to_page(0xde600), "");

say, in the end of memblock_free_all()?

The range [0xde600,0xde700] is not memory, so it won't create struct 
page for it when sparse_init?

After apply patch[1], the dump_page log,

page:ef3cc000 is uninitialized and poisoned
raw: ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff ffffffff
page dumped because:

Oh.  I posted patches to fix this back in 2018.

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20180414043145.3953-6-willy@infradead.org/

and 2019.

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190501202433.GC28500@bombadil.infradead.org/

and 2020.

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200408150148.25290-6-willy@infradead.org/

Looks like it's about that time of year for me to try to fix this again.

sparse_init() indeed does not create memory map for unpopulated memory, but
it has pretty coarse granularity, i.e. 64M in your configuration. A hole
should be at least 64M in order to skip allocation of the memory map for
it.

For example, your memory layout has a hole of 192M at pfn 0xc0000 and this
hole won't have the memory map.

However the hole 0xdca00 - 0xde70 will still have a memory map in the
section  that covers 0xdc000 - 0xe0000.

I've tried outline this in a sketch below, hope it helps.

Memory:
                          c0000      cc000                      dca00
--------------------------+          +--------------------------+ +----+
 memory bank              |<- hole ->| memory bank              | | mb |
--------------------------+          +--------------------------+ +----+
                                                                de700  dea00

Memory map:

b0000    b4000            c0000      cc000   d0000    d8000    dc000

This means that there is a memory map entry, and it got poisoned during the
initialization and never got reinitialized to sensible values, which would
be PageReserved() in this case.

I believe this was fixed by commit 0740a50b9baa ("mm/page_alloc.c: refactor
initialization of struct page for holes in memory layout") in the mainline
tree.

Can you backport it to your 5.10 tree and check if it helps?

Hi Mike, the 0740a50b9baa is already in 5.10, tags/v5.10.24~5

commit 4c84191cbc3eff49568d3c5cccb628fa382cf7fb
Author: Mike Rapoport <rppt@kernel.org>
Date:   Fri Mar 12 21:07:12 2021 -0800

     mm/page_alloc.c: refactor initialization of struct page for holes 
in memory layout

     commit 0740a50b9baa4472cfb12442df4b39e2712a64a4 upstream.

but check init_unavailable_range(), we need deal with the hole in the
range of one pageblock.

For our scene, pageblock range: 0xde600,0xde7ff, but the available pfn 
begin with 0xde700.

If pfn(eg, 0xde600) is not valid, the step in init_unavailable_range is
pageblock_nr_pages, and ALIGN_DOWN(pfn, pageblock_nr_pages) from 0xde600
to 0xde700 is same, so the page range for pfn [0xde600,0xde700] won't be
initialized.

After add the following patch, the oom test could passed,

Ah, you are using stable 5.10.y.

The pfn 0xde600 is valid in the sense that there is a memory map for that
pfn. Yet, with ARM's custom pfn_valid() will treat it as invalid because
there is a hole.

I'd rather prefer to keep init_unavailable_range() and the assumption that
the memory map always covers an entire pageblock.

Can you please try the below hack. Essentially, it makes arm with SPARSEMEM
to use the generic pfn_valid() and updates the freeing of the memory map to
have the entire pageblocks covered.

If this works I'll send formal patches for those changes.

Without HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID, init_unavailable_range will set those page
with Reserved flag, and yes, it works for oom test.

On node 0 totalpages: 311551
   Normal zone: 1230 pages used for memmap
   Normal zone: 0 pages reserved
