Let's try to unplug completely offline big blocks first. Then, (if
enabled via unplug_offline) try to offline and remove whole big blocks.
No locking necessary - we can deal with concurrent onlining/offlining
just fine.
Note1: This is sub-optimal and might be dangerous in some environments: we
could end up in an infinite loop when offlining (e.g., long-term pinnings),
similar as with DIMMs. We'll introduce safe memory hotunplug via
fake-offlining next, and use this basic mode only when explicitly enabled.
Note2: Without ZONE_MOVABLE, memory unplug will be extremely unreliable
with bigger block sizes.

Let's allow to force BBM, even if subblocks would be possible. Take care
of properly calculating the first big block id, because the start
address might no longer be aligned to the big block size.
Also, allow to manually configure the size of Big Blocks.

Currently, we do not support device block sizes that exceed the Linux
memory block size. For example, having a device block size of 1 GiB (e.g.,
gigantic pages in the hypervisor) won't work with 128 MiB Linux memory
blocks.
Let's implement Big Block Mode (BBM), whereby we add/remove at least
one Linux memory block at a time. With a 1 GiB device block size, a Big
Block (BB) will cover 8 Linux memory blocks.
We'll keep registering the online_page_callback machinery, it will be used
for safe memory hotunplug in BBM next.
Note: BBM is properly prepared for variable-sized Linux memory
blocks that we might see in the future. So we won't care how many Linux
memory blocks a big block actually spans, and how the memory notifier is
called.

Let's use wrappers for the low-level functions that dev_dbg/dev_warn
and work on addr + size, such that we can reuse them for adding/removing
in other granularity.
We only warn when adding memory failed, because that's something to pay
attention to. We won't warn when removing failed, we'll reuse that in
racy context soon (and we do have proper BUG_ON() statements in the
current cases where it must never happen).

We don't want to add too much memory when it's not getting onlined
immediately, to avoid running OOM. Generalize the handling, to avoid
making use of memory block states. Use a threshold of 1 GiB for now.
Properly adjust the offline size when adding/removing memory. As we are
not always protected by a lock when touching the offline size, use an
atomic64_t. We don't care about races (e.g., someone offlining memory
while we are adding more), only about consistent values.
(1 GiB needs a memmap of ~16MiB - which sounds reasonable even for
setups with little boot memory and (possibly) one virtio-mem device per
node)
We don't want to retrigger when onlining is caused immediately by our
action (e.g., adding memory which immediately gets onlined), so use a
flag to indicate if the workqueue is active and use that as an
indicator whether to trigger a retry. This will also be especially relevant
for Big Block Mode (BBM), whereby we might re-online memory in case
offlining of another memory block failed.

Let's trigger from offlining code only when we're not allowed to unplug
online memory. Handle the other case (memmap possibly freeing up another
memory block) when actually removing memory. We now also properly handle
the case when removing already offline memory blocks via
virtio_mem_mb_remove(). When removing via virtio_mem_remove(), when
unloading the driver, virtio_mem_retry() is a NOP and safe to use.
While at it, move retry handling when offlining out of
virtio_mem_notify_offline(), to share it with Big Block Mode (BBM)
soon.
This is a preparation for Big Block Mode (BBM), whereby we can see some
temporary offlining of memory blocks without actually making progress.
Imagine you have a Big Block that spans to Linux memory blocks. Assume
the first Linux memory blocks has no unmovable data on it. When we would
call offline_and_remove_memory() on the big block, we would
1. Try to offline the first block. Works, notifiers triggered.
virtio_mem_retry() called.
2. Try to offline the second block. Does not work.
3. Re-online first block.
4. Exit to main loop, exit workqueue.
5. Retry immediately (due to virtio_mem_retry()), go to 1.
The result are endless retries.

virtio-mem adds memory in memory block granularity, to be able to remove
it in the same granularity again later, and to grow slowly on demand.
This, however, results in quite a lot of resources when adding a lot of
memory. Resources are effectively stored in a list-based tree. Having a
lot of resources not only wastes memory, it also makes traversing that
tree more expensive, and makes /proc/iomem explode in size (e.g.,
requiring kexec-tools to manually merge resources later when e.g., trying
to create a kdump header).
Before this patch, we get (/proc/iomem) when hotplugging 2G via virtio-mem
on x86-64:
[...]
100000000-13fffffff : System RAM
140000000-33fffffff : virtio0
140000000-147ffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)

158000000-15fffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
160000000-167ffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
168000000-16fffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)

1a0000000-1a7ffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
1a8000000-1afffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
1b0000000-1b7ffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
1b8000000-1bfffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
3280000000-32ffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00
With this patch, we get (/proc/iomem):
[...]
fffc0000-ffffffff : Reserved
100000000-13fffffff : System RAM
140000000-33fffffff : virtio0
140000000-1bfffffff : System RAM (virtio_mem)
3280000000-32ffffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00
Of course, with more hotplugged memory, it gets worse. When unplugging
memory blocks again, try_remove_memory() (via offline_and_remove_memory())

When introducing virtio-mem, the semantics of ZONE_MOVABLE were rather
unclear, which is why we special-cased ZONE_MOVABLE such that partially
plugged blocks would never end up in ZONE_MOVABLE.
Now that the semantics are much clearer (and will be documented in a
follow-up patch including the new virtio-mem behavior), let's allow to
online partially plugged memory blocks to ZONE_MOVABLE and also consider
memory blocks that were onlined to ZONE_MOVABLE when unplugging memory.
While unplugged memory pages are, in general, unmovable, they can be
skipped when offlining memory.
virtio-mem only unplugs fairly big chunks (in the megabyte range) and
rather tries to shrink the memory region than randomly choosing memory.
In theory, if all other pages in the movable zone would be movable,
virtio-mem would only shrink that zone and not create any kind of
fragmentation.
In the future, we might want to remember the zone again and use the
information when (un)plugging memory. For now, let's keep it simple.
Note: Support for defragmentation is planned, to deal with fragmentation
after unplug due to memory chunks within memory blocks that could not get
unplugged before (e.g., somebody pinning pages within ZONE_MOVABLE for a
longer time).

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 7b7b27214b ("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)

We also want to unplug online memory (contained in online memory blocks
and, therefore, managed by the buddy), and eventually replug it later.
When requested to unplug memory, we use alloc_contig_range() to allocate
subblocks in online memory blocks (so we are the owner) and send them to
our hypervisor. When requested to plug memory, we can replug such memory
using free_contig_range() after asking our hypervisor.
We also want to mark all allocated pages PG_offline, so nobody will
touch them. To differentiate pages that were never onlined when
onlining the memory block from pages allocated via alloc_contig_range(), we
use PageDirty(). Based on this flag, virtio_mem_fake_online() can either
online the pages for the first time or use free_contig_range().
It is worth noting that there are no guarantees on how much memory can
actually get unplugged again. All device memory might completely be
fragmented with unmovable data, such that no subblock can get unplugged.
We are not touching the ZONE_MOVABLE. If memory is onlined to the
ZONE_MOVABLE, it can only get unplugged after that memory was offlined
manually by user space. In normal operation, virtio-mem memory is
suggested to be onlined to ZONE_NORMAL. In the future, we will try to
make unplug more likely to succeed.
Add a module parameter to control if online memory shall be touched.
As we want to access alloc_contig_range()/free_contig_range() from
kernel module context, export the symbols.
Note: Whenever virtio-mem uses alloc_contig_range(), all affected pages
are on the same node, in the same zone, and contain no holes.

Each virtio-mem device owns exactly one memory region. It is responsible
for adding/removing memory from that memory region on request.
When the device driver starts up, the requested amount of memory is
queried and then plugged to Linux. On request, further memory can be
plugged or unplugged. This patch only implements the plugging part.
On x86-64, memory can currently be plugged in 4MB ("subblock") granularity.
When required, a new memory block will be added (e.g., usually 128MB on
x86-64) in order to plug more subblocks. Only x86-64 was tested for now.
The online_page callback is used to keep unplugged subblocks offline
when onlining memory - similar to the Hyper-V balloon driver. Unplugged
pages are marked PG_offline, to tell dump tools (e.g., makedumpfile) to
skip them.
User space is usually responsible for onlining the added memory. The
memory hotplug notifier is used to synchronize virtio-mem activity
against memory onlining/offlining.
Each virtio-mem device can belong to a NUMA node, which allows us to
easily add/remove small chunks of memory to/from a specific NUMA node by
using multiple virtio-mem devices. Something that works even when the
guest has no idea about the NUMA topology.
One way to view virtio-mem is as a "resizable DIMM" or a DIMM with many
"sub-DIMMS".
This patch directly introduces the basic infrastructure to implement memory
unplug. Especially the memory block states and subblock bitmaps will be
heavily used there.
Notes:
- In case memory is to be onlined by user space, we limit the amount of
offline memory blocks, to not run out of memory. This is esp. an
issue if memory is added faster than it is getting onlined.
- Suspend/Hibernate is not supported due to the way virtio-mem devices
behave. Limited support might be possible in the future.
- Reloading the device driver is not supported.
