Changes from v1 -> v2 - Addressed feedback from David - Fence off the feature in case struct page size is not multiple of PMD size or pageblock alignment cannot be guaranted - Tested on x86_64 small and large memory_blocks - Tested on arm64 4KB and 64KB page sizes (for some reason I cannot boot my VM with 16KB page size). Arm64 with 4KB page size behaves like x86_64 after [1], which made section size smaller. With 64KB, the feature gets fenced off due to pageblock alignment. Changes from RFCv3 -> v1: - Addressed feedback from David - Re-order patches Changes from v2 -> v3 (RFC): - Re-order patches (Michal) - Fold "mm,memory_hotplug: Introduce MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY" in patch#1 - Add kernel boot option to enable this feature (Michal) Changes from v1 -> v2 (RFC): - Addressed feedback provided by David - Add a arch_support_memmap_on_memory to be called from mhp_supports_memmap_on_memory, as atm, only ARM, powerpc and x86_64 have altmat support. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/cover.1611206601.git.sudaraja@codeaurora.org/ Original cover letter: ---- The primary goal of this patchset is to reduce memory overhead of the hot-added memory (at least for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP memory model). The current way we use to populate memmap (struct page array) has two main drawbacks: a) it consumes an additional memory until the hotadded memory itself is onlined and b) memmap might end up on a different numa node which is especially true for movable_node configuration. c) due to fragmentation we might end up populating memmap with base pages One way to mitigate all these issues is to simply allocate memmap array (which is the largest memory footprint of the physical memory hotplug) from the hot-added memory itself. SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP memory model allows us to map any pfn range so the memory doesn't need to be online to be usable for the array. See patch 3 for more details. This feature is only usable when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is set. [Overall design]: Implementation wise we reuse vmem_altmap infrastructure to override the default allocator used by vmemap_populate. memory_block structure gained a new field called nr_vmemmap_pages. This plays well for two reasons: 1) {offline/online}_pages know the difference between start_pfn and buddy_start_pfn, which is start_pfn + nr_vmemmap_pages. In this way all isolation/migration operations are done to within the right range of memory without vmemmap pages. This allows us for a much cleaner handling. 2) In try_remove_memory, we construct a new vmemap_altmap struct with the right information based on memory_block->nr_vmemap_pages, so we end up calling vmem_altmap_free instead of free_pagetable when removing the memory.
