[PATCH v2 0/9] mm: PG_reserved cleanups and documentation

[PATCH v2 0/9] mm: PG_reserved cleanups and documentation

[David Hildenbrand]

Nothing major changed since the last version. I would be happy about
additional ACKs. If there are no further comments, can this go via the
mm-tree in one chunk?

I was recently going over all users of PG_reserved. Short story: it is
difficult and sometimes not really clear if setting/checking for
PG_reserved is only a relict from the past. Easy to break things. I
guess I now have a pretty good idea wh things are like that
nowadays and how they evolved.

I had way more cleanups in this series inititally,
but some architectures take PG_reserved as a way to apply a different
caching strategy (for MMIO pages). So I decided to only include the most
obvious changes (that are less likely to break something). So the big
chunk of manual SetPageReserved users are MMIO/DMA related things on
device buffers.

Most notably, for device memory we will hopefully soon stop setting
PG_reserved. Then the documentation has to be updated.

v1 -> v2:
- Minor speeling errors in "mm: better document PG_reserved" fixed
- Added ACKs

RFC -> v1:
- Add more details to "mm: better document PG_reserved"
- Add "arm64: kdump: No need to mark crashkernel pages manually
       PG_reserved"
- Add "ia64: perfmon: Don't mark buffer pages as PG_reserved"
- Added ACKs


David Hildenbrand (9):
  agp: efficeon: no need to set PG_reserved on GATT tables
  s390/vdso: don't clear PG_reserved
  powerpc/vdso: don't clear PG_reserved
  riscv/vdso: don't clear PG_reserved

[PATCH v2 1/9] agp: efficeon: no need to set PG_reserved on GATT tables

[David Hildenbrand]

The l1 GATT page table is kept in a special on-chip page with 64 entries.
We allocate the l2 page table pages via get_zeroed_page() and enter them
into the table. These l2 pages are modified accordingly when
inserting/removing memory via efficeon_insert_memory and
efficeon_remove_memory.

Apart from that, these pages are not exposed or ioremap'ed. We can stop
setting them reserved (propably copied from generic code).

[PATCH v2 2/9] s390/vdso: don't clear PG_reserved

[David Hildenbrand]

The VDSO is part of the kernel image and therefore the struct pages are
marked as reserved during boot.

As we install a special mapping, the actual struct pages will never be
exposed to MM via the page tables. We can therefore leave the pages
marked as reserved.

[PATCH v2 2/9] s390/vdso: don't clear PG_reserved

[David Hildenbrand]

The VDSO is part of the kernel image and therefore the struct pages are
marked as reserved during boot.

As we install a special mapping, the actual struct pages will never be
exposed to MM via the page tables. We can therefore leave the pages
marked as reserved.

[PATCH v2 7/9] arm64: kdump: No need to mark crashkernel pages manually PG_reserved

[David Hildenbrand]

The crashkernel is reserved via memblock_reserve(). memblock_free_all()
will call free_low_memory_core_early(), which will go over all reserved
memblocks, marking the pages as PG_reserved.

So manually marking pages as PG_reserved is not necessary, they are
already in the desired state (otherwise they would have been handed over
to the buddy as free pages and bad things would happen).

[PATCH v2 8/9] ia64: perfmon: Don't mark buffer pages as PG_reserved

[David Hildenbrand]

In the old days, remap_pfn_range() required pages to be marked as
PG_reserved, so they would e.g. never get swapped out. This was required
for special mappings. Nowadays, this is fully handled via the VMA
(VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP | VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP inside remap_pfn_range()
to be precise). PG_reserved is no longer required but only a relict from
the past.

So only architecture specific MM handling might require it (e.g. to
detect them as MMIO pages). As there are no architecture specific checks
for PageReserved() apart from MCA handling in ia64code, this can go. Use
simple vzalloc()/vfree() instead.

Note that before calling vzalloc(), size has already been aligned to
PAGE_SIZE, no need to align again.

[PATCH v2 8/9] ia64: perfmon: Don't mark buffer pages as PG_reserved

[David Hildenbrand]

In the old days, remap_pfn_range() required pages to be marked as
PG_reserved, so they would e.g. never get swapped out. This was required
for special mappings. Nowadays, this is fully handled via the VMA
(VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP | VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP inside remap_pfn_range()
to be precise). PG_reserved is no longer required but only a relict from
the past.

So only architecture specific MM handling might require it (e.g. to
detect them as MMIO pages). As there are no architecture specific checks
for PageReserved() apart from MCA handling in ia64code, this can go. Use
simple vzalloc()/vfree() instead.

Note that before calling vzalloc(), size has already been aligned to
PAGE_SIZE, no need to align again.

[PATCH v2 9/9] mm: better document PG_reserved

[David Hildenbrand]

The usage of PG_reserved and how PG_reserved pages are to be treated is
buried deep down in different parts of the kernel. Let's shine some light
onto these details by documenting current users and expected
behavior.

Especially, clarify on the "Some of them might not even exist" case.
These are physical memory gaps that will never be dumped as they
are not marked as IORESOURCE_SYSRAM. PG_reserved does in general not
hinder anybody from dumping or swapping. In some cases, these pages
will not be stored in the hibernation image.

Any reason you skipped

drivers/gpu/drm/drm_pci.c:drm_pci_alloc()

and 

drivers/gpu/drm/drm_scatter.c:drm_legacy_sg_alloc()

which both look completely bogus as-is?

In fact we should probably just try to kill them off as they have
very few users left.

I actually have patches lying around for these, however excluded them
for now as I was not 100% sure about the implications ("Easy to break
things").

Are you sure nobody in the system (especially somebody who does a
PageReserved()) relies on this to identify e.g. MMIO pages? (e.g.
ioremap on some archs, KVM code)

(I am by far no DRM expert, but when I hear DMA, I tend to be careful)

For the time being, I will not add further patches to this series (as
discussed in response to one question, we have to be careful dropping
PG_reserved at some places). Only ACKs were added during review so far.

@Andrew, how to proceed with this?
