Subject: [PATCH v3] x86/e820: put !E820_TYPE_RAM regions into
memblock.reserved
Hi,
I updated the patch, so let me share it.
# I'll be offline early in the next week, maybe come back on Wednesday.
# Have a nice weekend.
Thanks,

There is a kernel panic that is triggered when reading /proc/kpageflags
on the kernel booted with kernel parameter 'memmap=nn[KMG]!ss[KMG]':

According to kernel bisection, this problem became visible due to commit
f7f99100d8d9 which changes how struct pages are initialized.
Memblock layout affects the pfn ranges covered by node/zone. Consider
that we have a VM with 2 NUMA nodes and each node has 4GB memory, and
the default (no memmap= given) memblock layout is like below:
MEMBLOCK configuration:
memory size = 0x00000001fff75c00 reserved size = 0x000000000300c000
memory.cnt = 0x4
memory[0x0] [0x0000000000001000-0x000000000009efff], 0x000000000009e000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x1] [0x0000000000100000-0x00000000bffd6fff], 0x00000000bfed7000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x2] [0x0000000100000000-0x000000013fffffff], 0x0000000040000000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x3] [0x0000000140000000-0x000000023fffffff], 0x0000000100000000 bytes on node 1 flags: 0x0
...
If you give memmap=1G!4G (so it just covers memory[0x2]),
the range [0x100000000-0x13fffffff] is gone:
MEMBLOCK configuration:
memory size = 0x00000001bff75c00 reserved size = 0x000000000300c000
memory.cnt = 0x3
memory[0x0] [0x0000000000001000-0x000000000009efff], 0x000000000009e000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x1] [0x0000000000100000-0x00000000bffd6fff], 0x00000000bfed7000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x2] [0x0000000140000000-0x000000023fffffff], 0x0000000100000000 bytes on node 1 flags: 0x0
...
This causes shrinking node 0's pfn range because it is calculated by
the address range of memblock.memory. So some of struct pages in the
gap range are left uninitialized.
We have a function zero_resv_unavail() which does zeroing the struct
pages within the reserved unavailable range (i.e. memblock.memory &&
!memblock.reserved). This patch utilizes it to cover all unavailable
ranges by putting them into memblock.reserved.
Fixes: f7f99100d8d9 ("mm: stop zeroing memory during allocation in vmemmap")
