[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC 2/2] mm/memory_hotplug: fix online/offline_pages called w.o. mem_hotplug_lock
There seem to be some problems as result of 30467e0b3be ("mm, hotplug:
fix concurrent memory hot-add deadlock"), which tried to fix a possible
lock inversion reported and discussed in [1] due to the two locks
a) device_lock()
b) mem_hotplug_lock
While add_memory() first takes b), followed by a) during
bus_probe_device(), onlining of memory from user space first took b),
followed by a), exposing a possible deadlock.
In [1], and it was decided to not make use of device_hotplug_lock, but
rather to enforce a locking order. Looking at 1., this order is not always
satisfied when calling device_online() - essentially we simply don't take
one of both locks anymore - and fixing this would require us to
take the mem_hotplug_lock in core driver code (online_store()), which
sounds wrong.
The problems I spotted related to this:
1. Memory block device attributes: While .state first calls
mem_hotplug_begin() and the calls device_online() - which takes
device_lock() - .online does no longer call mem_hotplug_begin(), so
effectively calls online_pages() without mem_hotplug_lock. onlining/
offlining of pages is no longer serialised across different devices.
2. device_online() should be called under device_hotplug_lock, however
onlining memory during add_memory() does not take care of that. (I
didn't follow how strictly this is needed, but there seems to be a
reason because it is documented at device_online() and
device_offline()).
In addition, I think there is also something wrong about the locking in
3. arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/memtrace.c calls offline_pages()
(and device_online()) without locks. This was introduced after
30467e0b3be. And skimming over the code, I assume it could need some
more care in regards to locking.
ACPI code already holds the device_hotplug_lock, and as we are
effectively hotplugging memory block devices, requiring to hold that
lock does not sound too wrong, although not chosen in [1], as
"I don't think resolving a locking dependency is appropriate by
just serializing them with another lock."
I think this is the cleanest solution.
Requiring add_memory()/add_memory_resource() to be called under
device_hotplug_lock fixes 2., taking the mem_hotplug_lock in
online_pages/offline_pages() fixes 1. and 3.
Fixup all callers of add_memory/add_memory_resource to hold the lock if
not already done.
So this is essentially a revert of 30467e0b3be, implementation of what
was suggested in [1] by Vitaly, applied to the current tree.

2015-February/065324.html
This patch is partly based on a patch by Vitaly Kuznetsov.
