Subject: [PATCH v1] virtio-mem: add memory via add_memory_driver_managed()
Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2020 11:35:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200611093518.5737-1-david@redhat.com> (raw)
Virtio-mem managed memory is always detected and added by the virtio-mem
driver, never using something like the firmware-provided memory map.
This is the case after an ordinary system reboot, and has to be guaranteed
after kexec. Especially, virtio-mem added memory resources can contain
inaccessible parts ("unblocked memory blocks"), blindly forwarding them
to a kexec kernel is dangerous, as unplugged memory will get accessed
(esp. written).
Let's use the new way of adding special driver-managed memory introduced
in commit 75ac4c58bc0d ("mm/memory_hotplug: introduce
add_memory_driver_managed()").
This will result in no entries in /sys/firmware/memmap ("raw firmware-
provided memory map"), the memory resource will be flagged
IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED (esp., kexec_file_load() will not place
kexec images on this memory), and it is exposed as "System RAM
(virtio_mem)" in /proc/iomem, so esp. kexec-tools can properly handle it.
Example /proc/iomem before this change:
[...]
140000000-333ffffff : virtio0
140000000-147ffffff : System RAM
334000000-533ffffff : virtio1
338000000-33fffffff : System RAM
340000000-347ffffff : System RAM
348000000-34fffffff : System RAM
[...]
Example /proc/iomem after this change:
[...]
140000000-333ffffff : virtio0
140000000-147ffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
334000000-533ffffff : virtio1
338000000-33fffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
340000000-347ffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
348000000-34fffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)

Based on latest Linus' tree (and not a tag) because
- virtio-mem has just been merged via the vhost tree
- add_memory_driver_managed() has been merged a week ago via the -mm tree
I'd like to have this patch in 5.8, with the initial merge of virtio-mem
if possible (so the user space representation of virtio-mem added memory
resources won't change anymore).
