For configurations that have the kconfig option NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO
disabled, the SRAT lookup done with numa_fill_memblks() fails
returning NUMA_NO_MEMBLK (-1). An existing SRAT memory range cannot be
found for a CFMWS address range. This causes the addition of a
duplicate numa_memblk with a different node id and a subsequent page
fault and kernel crash during boot.

numa_fill_memblks() is implemented and used in the init section only.
The option NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO is only for the case when NUMA data will
be used outside of init. So fix the SRAT lookup by moving
numa_fill_memblks() out of the NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO block to make it
always available in the init section.

Note that the issue was initially introduced with [1]. But since
phys_to_target_node() was originally used that returned the valid node
0, an additional numa_memblk was not added. Though, the node id was
wrong too.

Does this achieve the goal without an additional hunk like this?

Hi Richard,

I recall a bit of wrangling w #defines to make ARM64 and LOONGARCH build.
I'm seeing an x86 build error today:

>> arch/x86/mm/numa.c:957:12: error: redefinition of 'numa_fill_memblks'
     957 | int __init numa_fill_memblks(u64 start, u64 end)

         |                          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In addition to what you suggest, would something like this diff below be
a useful safety measure to distinguish num_fill_memblks() success (rc:0)
and possible non-existence (rc:-1). I don't think it hurts to take a
second look using phys_to_target_node() (totall untested)

right, there are some build issues that need to be fixed in this
patch. Sorry for that.

for non-x86 the numa_add_memblk() function looks good in a way that it
is able to handle presumable overlapping regions. numa_fill_memblks()
would just fail then and numa_add_memblk() being called. For x86 we
need numa_fill_memblks() since x86 specific numa_add_memblk() cannot
handle the overlapping case.

That said, we do not need the 2nd check. It looks to me that it
actually breaks non-x86 as the whole block may not be registered (if
it is larger than anything existing).

For x86 the 2nd check may never happen if numa_fill_memblks() is
always enabled (which is this patch for).

So we should be good without your change.

Thanks,

-Robert

Hi Robert, (<-- got it right this time ;))

I wasn't thinking of x86, but rather archs that may not support
numa_fill_memblks() and return NUMA_NO_MEMBLK (-1) per the 
#ifndef numa_fill_memblks in include/linux/numa.h

In those cases, take a second look at phys_to_targe_node() before
blindly adding another memblk. Is that the failure signature you
reported here?

I can wait and see your final patch and how the different archs
will handle it. I'm worried that NUMA_NO_MEMBLK is overloaded and
we need to diffentiate between archs that don't even look for a 
node, versus archs that look but don't find a node.

no worries. :-)

No, I am seeing this on x86 with NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO disabled.
numa_fill_memblks() is not implemented then and returns
NUMA_NO_MEMBLK. numa_add_memblk() (the x86 variant) is called for an
existing range and it adds a duplicate memblock for the same range but
with a different nid, which causes a page fault.

For the non-x86 generic variant of numa_add_memblk() it looks like it
can handle already existing mem blocks within the range and thus does
not need numa_fill_memblks() or the phys_to_target_node() check. Using
phys_to_target_node() would be actually a bug since this always
returns node 0 no matter if there is already a memblock or not. A mem
block for a CFMWS range would never be initialized by calling
numa_add_memblk(), no matter if the range does not exist at all or if
it is partially (at the end) missing.

This only happens to archs with ACPI_NUMA enabled which is arm64 and
loongarch. As said, numa_add_memblk() handles overlapping ranges so it
is ok to just call it multiple times for the whole or a partional
range.

See below for the full diff of this patch that I will send with a v3
(need to take care at the other review comments yet before sending
it). It just changes sparsemem.h too.
