x86/numa: Fix the address overlap check in numa_fill_memblks()

[ Upstream commit 9b99c17f7510bed2adbe17751fb8abddba5620bc ]

numa_fill_memblks() fills in the gaps in numa_meminfo memblks over a
physical address range. To do so, it first creates a list of existing
memblks that overlap that address range. The issue is that it is off
by one when comparing to the end of the address range, so memblks
that do not overlap are selected.

The impact of selecting a memblk that does not actually overlap is
that an existing memblk may be filled when the expected action is to
do nothing and return NUMA_NO_MEMBLK to the caller. The caller can
then add a new NUMA node and memblk.

Replace the broken open-coded search for address overlap with the
memblock helper memblock_addrs_overlap(). Update the kernel doc
and in code comments.

memblock: fix crash when reserved memory is not added to memory

[ Upstream commit 6a9531c3a88096a26cf3ac582f7ec44f94a7dcb2 ]

After commit 61167ad5fecd ("mm: pass nid to reserve_bootmem_region()")
nid of a reserved region is used by init_reserved_page() (with
CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT=y) to access node strucure.
In many cases the nid of the reserved memory is not set and this causes
a crash.

When the nid of a reserved region is not set, fall back to
early_pfn_to_nid(), so that nid of the first_online_node will be passed
to init_reserved_page().

mm: disable kernelcore=mirror when no mirror memory

For system with kernelcore=mirror enabled while no mirrored memory is
reported by efi. This could lead to kernel OOM during startup since all
memory beside zone DMA are in the movable zone and this prevents the
kernel to use it.

Zone DMA/DMA32 initialization is independent of mirrored memory and their
max pfn is set in zone_sizes_init(). Since kernel can fallback to zone
DMA/DMA32 if there is no memory in zone Normal, these zones are seen as
mirrored memory no mather their memory attributes are.

To solve this problem, disable kernelcore=mirror when there is no real
mirrored memory exists.

Revert "mm,memblock: reset memblock.reserved to system init state to prevent UAF"

Revert "mm,memblock: reset memblock.reserved to system init state to prevent UAF"

This reverts commit 9e46e4dcd9d6cd88342b028dbfa5f4fb7483d39c.

kbuild reports a warning in memblock_remove_region() because of a false
positive caused by partial reset of the memblock state.

Doing the full reset will remove the false positives, but will allow
late use of memblock_free() to go unnoticed, so it is better to revert
the offending commit.

mm,memblock: reset memblock.reserved to system init state to prevent UAF

The memblock_discard function frees the memblock.reserved.regions
array, which is good.

However, if a subsequent memblock_free (or memblock_phys_free) comes
in later, from for example ima_free_kexec_buffer, that will result in
a use after free bug in memblock_isolate_range.

When running a kernel with CONFIG_KASAN enabled, this will cause a
kernel panic very early in boot. Without CONFIG_KASAN, there is
a chance that memblock_isolate_range might scribble on memory
that is now in use by somebody else.

Avoid those issues by making sure that memblock_discard points
memblock.reserved.regions back at the static buffer.

If memblock_free is called after memblock memory is discarded, that will
print a warning in memblock_remove_region.

mm: pass nid to reserve_bootmem_region()

early_pfn_to_nid() is called frequently in init_reserved_page(), it
returns the node id of the PFN. These PFN are probably from the same
memory region, they have the same node id. It's not necessary to call
early_pfn_to_nid() for each PFN.

Pass nid to reserve_bootmem_region() and drop the call to
early_pfn_to_nid() in init_reserved_page(). Also, set nid on all reserved
pages before doing this, as some reserved memory regions may not be set
nid.

The most beneficial function is memmap_init_reserved_pages() if
CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled.

The following data was tested on an x86 machine with 190GB of RAM.

mm/memory_hotplug: remove reset_node_managed_pages() in hotadd_init_pgdat()

managed pages has already been set to 0 in free_area_init_core_hotplug(),
via zone_init_internals() on each zone. It's pointless to reset again.

Furthermore, reset_node_managed_pages() no longer needs to be exposed
outside of mm/memblock.c. Remove declaration in include/linux/memblock.h
and define it as static.

In addtion to this, the only caller of reset_node_managed_pages() is
reset_all_zones_managed_pages(), which is annotated with __init, so it
should be safe to also mark reset_node_managed_pages() as __init.

mm: Add support for unaccepted memory

UEFI Specification version 2.9 introduces the concept of memory
acceptance. Some Virtual Machine platforms, such as Intel TDX or AMD
SEV-SNP, require memory to be accepted before it can be used by the
guest. Accepting happens via a protocol specific to the Virtual Machine
platform.

There are several ways the kernel can deal with unaccepted memory:

1. Accept all the memory during boot. It is easy to implement and it
doesn't have runtime cost once the system is booted. The downside is
very long boot time.

Accept can be parallelized to multiple CPUs to keep it manageable
(i.e. via DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT), but it tends to saturate
memory bandwidth and does not scale beyond the point.

2. Accept a block of memory on the first use. It requires more
infrastructure and changes in page allocator to make it work, but
it provides good boot time.

On-demand memory accept means latency spikes every time kernel steps
onto a new memory block. The spikes will go away once workload data
set size gets stabilized or all memory gets accepted.

3. Accept all memory in background. Introduce a thread (or multiple)
that gets memory accepted proactively. It will minimize time the
system experience latency spikes on memory allocation while keeping
low boot time.

This approach cannot function on its own. It is an extension of #2:
background memory acceptance requires functional scheduler, but the
page allocator may need to tap into unaccepted memory before that.

The downside of the approach is that these threads also steal CPU
cycles and memory bandwidth from the user's workload and may hurt
user experience.

Implement #1 and #2 for now. #2 is the default. Some workloads may want
to use #1 with accept_memory=eager in kernel command line. #3 can be
implemented later based on user's demands.

Support of unaccepted memory requires a few changes in core-mm code:

- memblock accepts memory on allocation. It serves early boot memory
allocations and doesn't limit them to pre-accepted pool of memory.

- page allocator accepts memory on the first allocation of the page.
When kernel runs out of accepted memory, it accepts memory until the
high watermark is reached. It helps to minimize fragmentation.

EFI code will provide two helpers if the platform supports unaccepted
memory:

- accept_memory() makes a range of physical addresses accepted.

- range_contains_unaccepted_memory() checks anything within the range
of physical addresses requires acceptance.

memblock: Add flags and nid info in memblock debugfs

Currently, the memblock debugfs can display the count of memblock_type and
the base and end of the reg. However, when memblock_mark_*() or
memblock_set_node() is executed on some range, the information in the
existing debugfs cannot make it clear why the address is not consecutive.

For example,
cat /sys/kernel/debug/memblock/memory
0: 0x0000000080000000..0x00000000901fffff
1: 0x0000000090200000..0x00000000905fffff
2: 0x0000000090600000..0x0000000092ffffff
3: 0x0000000093000000..0x00000000973fffff
4: 0x0000000097400000..0x00000000b71fffff
5: 0x00000000c0000000..0x00000000dfffffff
6: 0x00000000e2500000..0x00000000f87fffff
7: 0x00000000f8800000..0x00000000fa7fffff
8: 0x00000000fa800000..0x00000000fd3effff
9: 0x00000000fd3f0000..0x00000000fd3fefff
10: 0x00000000fd3ff000..0x00000000fd7fffff
11: 0x00000000fd800000..0x00000000fd901fff
12: 0x00000000fd902000..0x00000000fd909fff
13: 0x00000000fd90a000..0x00000000fd90bfff

15: 0x0000000880000000..0x0000000affffffff

So we can add flags and nid to this debugfs.

If start==0, __ffs(start) returns 0xfffffff or (as int) -1, which min_t()
interprets as such, while min() apparently uses the returned unsigned long

Revert "mm: Always release pages to the buddy allocator in memblock_free_late()."

This reverts commit 115d9d77bb0f9152c60b6e8646369fa7f6167593.

The pages being freed by memblock_free_late() have already been
initialized, but if they are in the deferred init range,
__free_one_page() might access nearby uninitialized pages when trying to
coalesce buddies. This can, for example, trigger this BUG:

memblock: Avoid useless checks in memblock_merge_regions().

memblock_merge_regions() is called after regions have been modified to
merge the neighboring compatible regions. That will check all regions
but most checks are useless.

Most of the time we only insert one or a few new regions, or modify one or
a few regions. At this time, we don't need to check all the regions. We
only need to check the changed regions, because other not related regions
cannot be merged.

Add two parameters to memblock_merge_regions() to indicate the lower and
upper boundary to scan.

Debug code that counts the number of total iterations in
memblock_merge_regions(), like for instance

void memblock_merge_regions(struct memblock_type *type)
{
static int iteration_count = 0;
static int max_nr_regions = 0;

max_nr_regions = max(max_nr_regions, (int)type->cnt);
...
while () {
iteration_count++;
...
}
pr_info("iteration_count: %d max_nr_regions %d", iteration_count,
max_nr_regions);
}

Produces the following numbers on a physical machine with 1T of memory:

before: [2.472243] iteration_count: 45410 max_nr_regions 178
after: [2.470869] iteration_count: 923 max_nr_regions 176

The actual startup speed seems to change little, but it does reduce the
scan overhead.

mm: Always release pages to the buddy allocator in memblock_free_late().

If CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled, memblock_free_pages()
only releases pages to the buddy allocator if they are not in the
deferred range. This is correct for free pages (as defined by
for_each_free_mem_pfn_range_in_zone()) because free pages in the
deferred range will be initialized and released as part of the deferred
init process. memblock_free_pages() is called by memblock_free_late(),
which is used to free reserved ranges after memblock_free_all() has
run. All pages in reserved ranges have been initialized at that point,
and accordingly, those pages are not touched by the deferred init
process. This means that currently, if the pages that
memblock_free_late() intends to release are in the deferred range, they
will never be released to the buddy allocator. They will forever be
reserved.

In addition, memblock_free_pages() calls kmsan_memblock_free_pages(),
which is also correct for free pages but is not correct for reserved
pages. KMSAN metadata for reserved pages is initialized by
kmsan_init_shadow(), which runs shortly before memblock_free_all().

For both of these reasons, memblock_free_pages() should only be called
for free pages, and memblock_free_late() should call __free_pages_core()
directly instead.

One case where this issue can occur in the wild is EFI boot on
x86_64. The x86 EFI code reserves all EFI boot services memory ranges
via memblock_reserve() and frees them later via memblock_free_late()
(efi_reserve_boot_services() and efi_free_boot_services(),
respectively). If any of those ranges happens to fall within the
deferred init range, the pages will not be released and that memory will
be unavailable.

For example, on an Amazon EC2 t3.micro VM (1 GB) booting via EFI:

v6.2-rc2:
# grep -E 'Node|spanned|present|managed' /proc/zoneinfo

memblock,arm64: expand the static memblock memory table

In a system(Huawei Ascend ARM64 SoC) using HBM, a multi-bit ECC error
occurs, and the BIOS will mark the corresponding area (for example, 2 MB)
as unusable. When the system restarts next time, these areas are not
reported or reported as EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY. Both cases lead to an
increase in the number of memblocks, whereas EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY leads to
a larger number of memblocks.

The EFI memory map is parsed to construct the memblock arrays before the
memblock arrays can be resized. As the result, memory regions beyond
INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS are lost.

Add a new macro INIT_MEMBLOCK_MEMORY_REGIONS to replace
INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGTIONS to define the size of the static memblock.memory
array.

Allow overriding memblock.memory array size with architecture defined
INIT_MEMBLOCK_MEMORY_REGIONS and make arm64 to set
INIT_MEMBLOCK_MEMORY_REGIONS to 1024 when CONFIG_EFI is enabled.

memblock: avoid some repeat when add new range

The worst case is that the new memory range overlaps all existing
regions, which requires type->cnt + 1 empty struct memblock_region slots in
the type->regions array.
So if type->cnt + 1 + type->cnt is less than type->max, we can insert
regions directly rather than calculate the needed amount before the
insertion.
And becase of merge operation in the end of function, tpye->cnt will
increase slowly for many cases.

This change allows to avoid unnecessary repeat of memblock ranges traversal
for many cases when adding new memory range.

mm: kmemleak: remove kmemleak_not_leak_phys() and the min_count argument to kmemleak_alloc_phys()

Patch series "mm: kmemleak: store objects allocated with physical address
separately and check when scan", v4.

The kmemleak_*_phys() interface uses "min_low_pfn" and "max_low_pfn" to
check address. But on some architectures, kmemleak_*_phys() is called
before those two variables initialized. The following steps will be
taken:

1) Add OBJECT_PHYS flag and rbtree for the objects allocated
with physical address
2) Store physical address in objects if allocated with OBJECT_PHYS
3) Check the boundary when scan instead of in kmemleak_*_phys()

memblock: Disable mirror feature if kernelcore is not specified

If system have some mirrored memory and mirrored feature is not specified
in boot parameter, the basic mirrored feature will be enabled and this will
lead to the following situations:

- memblock memory allocation prefers mirrored region. This may have some
unexpected influence on numa affinity.

- contiguous memory will be split into several parts if parts of them
is mirrored memory via memblock_mark_mirror().

To fix this, variable mirrored_kernelcore will be checked in
memblock_mark_mirror(). Mark mirrored memory with flag MEMBLOCK_MIRROR iff
kernelcore=mirror is added in the kernel parameters.
