dax_attribute_group is only used by the pmem driver, and can avoid the completely pointless lookup by the disk name if moved there. This leaves just a single caller of dax_get_by_host, so move dax_get_by_host into the same ifdef block as that caller. Signed-off-by:

Although dax/kmem users often disable auto-onlining and instead online memory manually (usually to ZONE_MOVABLE), there is still value in having auto-onlining be aware of the relationship of memory blocks. Let's treat one probed unit as a single static memory device, similar to a single ACPI memory device. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210806124715.17090-7-david@redhat.com Signed-off-by:

There is only a single user remaining. We can simply lookup the nid only used for node offlining purposes when walking our memory blocks. We don't expect to remove multi-nid ranges; and if we'd ever do, we most probably don't care about removing multi-nid ranges that actually result in empty nodes. If ever required, we can detect the "multi-nid" scenario and simply try offlining all online nodes. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210712124052.26491-4-david@redhat.com Signed-off-by:

The driver core ignores the return value of this callback because there is only little it can do when a device disappears. This is the final bit of a long lasting cleanup quest where several buses were converted to also return void from their remove callback. Additionally some resource leaks were fixed that were caused by drivers returning an error code in the expectation that the driver won't go away. With struct bus_type::remove returning void it's prevented that newly implemented buses return an ignored error code and so don't anticipate wrong expectations for driver authors.

The core-mm has a default __weak implementation of phys_to_target_node() to mirror the weak definition of memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(). That symbol is exported for modules. However, while the export in mm/memory_hotplug.c exported the symbol in the configuration cases of: CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO=y CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y ...and: CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO=n CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y ...it failed to export the symbol in the case of: CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO=y CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n Not only is that broken, but Christoph points out that the kernel should not be exporting any __weak symbol, which means that memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() example that phys_to_target_node() copied is broken too. Rework the definition of phys_to_target_node() and memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() to not require weak symbols. Move to the common arch override design-pattern of an asm header defining a symbol to replace the default implementation. The only common header that all memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() producing architectures implement is asm/sparsemem.h. In fact, powerpc already defines its memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() helper in sparsemem.h. Double-down on that observation and define phys_to_target_node() where necessary in asm/sparsemem.h. An alternate consideration that was discarded was to put this override in asm/numa.h, but that entangles with the definition of MAX_NUMNODES relative to the inclusion of linux/nodemask.h, and requires powerpc to grow a new header. The dependency on NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO for DEV_DAX_HMEM_DEVICES is invalid now that the symbol is properly exported / stubbed in all combinations of CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO and CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG.

The conversion to request_mem_region() is broken because it assumes that the range is marked busy prior to release. However, due to the way that the kmem driver manipulates the IORESOURCE_BUSY flag (clears it to let {add,remove}_memory() handle busy) it requires a manual release_resource() to perform cleanup. Given that the actual 'struct resource *' needs to be recalled, not just the range, add that tracking to the kmem driver-data.

Add a sysfs attribute which denotes a range from the dax region to be allocated. It's an write only @mapping sysfs attribute in the format of '<start>-<end>' to allocate a range. @start and @end use hexadecimal values and the @pgoff is implicitly ordered wrt to previous writes to @mapping sysfs e.g. a write of a range of length 1G the pgoff is 0..1G(-4K), a second write will use @pgoff for 1G+4K..<size>. This range mapping interface is useful for: 1) Application which want to implement its own allocation logic, and thus pick the desired ranges from dax_region. 2) For use cases like VMM fast restart[0] where after kexec we want to the same gpa<->phys mappings (as originally created before kexec).

Introduce a new module parameter for dax_hmem which initializes all region devices as free, rather than allocating a pagemap for the region by default. All hmem devices created with dax_hmem.region_idle=1 will have full available size for creating dynamic dax devices. Signed-off-by:

Introduce a device align attribute. While doing so, rename the region align attribute to be more explicitly named as so, but keep it named as @align to retain the API for tools like daxctl. Changes on align may not always be valid, when say certain mappings were created with 2M and then we switch to 1G. So, we validate all ranges against the new value being attempted, post resizing.

Introduce @align to struct dev_dax. When creating a new device, we still initialize to the default dax_region @align. Child devices belonging to a region may wish to keep a different alignment property instead of a global region-defined one. Signed-off-by:

In support of interrogating the physical address layout of a device with dis-contiguous ranges, introduce a sysfs directory with 'start', 'end', and 'page_offset' attributes. The alternative is trying to parse /proc/iomem, and that file will not reflect the extent layout until the device is enabled. Signed-off-by:

Break the requirement that device-dax instances are physically contiguous. With this constraint removed it allows fragmented available capacity to be fully allocated. This capability is useful to mitigate the "noisy neighbor" problem with memory-side-cache management for virtual machines, or any other scenario where a platform address boundary also designates a performance boundary. For example a direct mapped memory side cache might rotate cache colors at 1GB boundaries. With dis-contiguous allocations a device-dax instance could be configured to contain only 1 cache color. It also satisfies Joao's use case (see link) for partitioning memory for exclusive guest access. It allows for a future potential mode where the host kernel need not allocate 'struct page' capacity up-front. Reported-by:

In support of device-dax growing the ability to front physically dis-contiguous ranges of memory, update devm_memremap_pages() to track multiple ranges with a single reference counter and devm instance. Convert all [devm_]memremap_pages() users to specify the number of ranges they are mapping in their 'struct dev_pagemap' instance. Signed-off-by:

The 'struct resource' in 'struct dev_pagemap' is only used for holding resource span information. The other fields, 'name', 'flags', 'desc', 'parent', 'sibling', and 'child' are all unused wasted space. This is in preparation for introducing a multi-range extension of devm_memremap_pages(). The bulk of this change is unwinding all the places internal to libnvdimm that used 'struct resource' unnecessarily, and replacing instances of 'struct dev_pagemap'.res with 'struct dev_pagemap'.range. P2PDMA had a minor usage of the resource flags field, but only to report failures with "%pR". That is replaced with an open coded print of the range.

Make the device-dax 'size' attribute writable to allow capacity to be split between multiple instances in a region. The intended consumers of this capability are users that want to split a scarce memory resource between device-dax and System-RAM access, or users that want to have multiple security domains for a large region. By default the hmem instance provider allocates an entire region to the first instance. The process of creating a new instance (assuming a region-id of 0) is find the region and trigger the 'create' attribute which yields an empty instance to configure. For example: cd /sys/bus/dax/devices echo dax0.0 > dax0.0/driver/unbind echo $new_size > dax0.0/size echo 1 > $(readlink -f dax0.0)../dax_region/create seed=$(cat $(readlink -f dax0.0)../dax_region/seed) echo $new_size > $seed/size echo dax0.0 > ../drivers/{device_dax,kmem}/bind echo dax0.1 > ../drivers/{device_dax,kmem}/bind Instances can be destroyed by: echo $device > $(readlink -f $device)../dax_region/delete Signed-off-by:
