Subject: [PATCH for 4.19-stable v2 06/24] mm/memory_hotplug: release memory resource after arch_remove_memory()
Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2020 19:01:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200121180150.37454-7-david@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200121180150.37454-1-david@redhat.com>

From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.com>

commit d9eb1417c77df7ce19abd2e41619e9dceccbdf2a upstream.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: Better error handling when removing
memory", v1.

Error handling when removing memory is somewhat messed up right now.  Some
errors result in warnings, others are completely ignored.  Memory unplug
code can essentially not deal with errors properly as of now.
remove_memory() will never fail.

We have basically two choices:
1. Allow arch_remov_memory() and friends to fail, propagating errors via
   remove_memory(). Might be problematic (e.g. DIMMs consisting of multiple
   pieces added/removed separately).
2. Don't allow the functions to fail, handling errors in a nicer way.

It seems like most errors that can theoretically happen are really corner
cases and mostly theoretical (e.g.  "section not valid").  However e.g.
aborting removal of sections while all callers simply continue in case of
errors is not nice.

If we can gurantee that removal of memory always works (and WARN/skip in
case of theoretical errors so we can figure out what is going on), we can
go ahead and implement better error handling when adding memory.

E.g. via add_memory():

arch_add_memory()
ret = do_stuff()
if (ret) {
	arch_remove_memory();
	goto error;
}

Handling here that arch_remove_memory() might fail is basically
impossible.  So I suggest, let's avoid reporting errors while removing
memory, warning on theoretical errors instead and continuing instead of
aborting.

This patch (of 4):

__add_pages() doesn't add the memory resource, so __remove_pages()
shouldn't remove it.  Let's factor it out.  Especially as it is a special
case for memory used as system memory, added via add_memory() and friends.

We now remove the resource after removing the sections instead of doing it
the other way around.  I don't think this change is problematic.

add_memory()
	register memory resource
	arch_add_memory()

remove_memory
	arch_remove_memory()
	release memory resource

While at it, explain why we ignore errors and that it only happeny if
we remove memory in a different granularity as we added it.
