Subject: [RFC PATCH] mm, memory_hotplug: do not clear numa_node association after hot_remove
From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@...e.com>
Per-cpu numa_node provides a default node for each possible cpu. The
association gets initialized during the boot when the architecture
specific code explores cpu->NUMA affinity. When the whole NUMA node is
removed though we are clearing this association
try_offline_node
check_and_unmap_cpu_on_node
unmap_cpu_on_node
numa_clear_node
numa_set_node(cpu, NUMA_NO_NODE)
This means that whoever calls cpu_to_node for a cpu associated with such
a node will get NUMA_NO_NODE. This is problematic for two reasons. First
it is fragile because __alloc_pages_node would simply blow up on an
out-of-bound access. We have encountered this when loading kvm module

DWARF2 unwinder stuck at entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1e/0xb7
on an older kernel but the code is basically the same in the current
Linus tree as well. alloc_vmcs_cpu could use alloc_pages_nodemask which
would recognize NUMA_NO_NODE and use alloc_pages_node which would translate
it to numa_mem_id but that is wrong as well because it would use a cpu
affinity of the local CPU which might be quite far from the original node.
It is also reasonable to expect that cpu_to_node will provide a sane value
and there might be many more callers like that.
The second problem is that __register_one_node relies on cpu_to_node
to properly associate cpus back to the node when it is onlined. We do
not want to lose that link as there is no arch independent way to get it
from the early boot time AFAICS.
Drop the whole check_and_unmap_cpu_on_node machinery and keep the
association to fix both issues. The NODE_DATA(nid) is not deallocated
so it will stay in place and if anybody wants to allocate from that node
then a fallback node will be used.
Thanks to Vlastimil Babka for his live system debugging skills that
helped debugging the issue.

Hi,
please note that I am sending this as an RFC even though this has been
confirmed to fix the oops in kvm_intel module because I cannot simply
tell that there are no other side effect that I do not see from the code
reading. I would appreciate some background from people who have
introduced this code e13fe8695c57 ("cpu-hotplug,memory-hotplug: clear
cpu_to_node() when offlining the node") because the changelog doesn't
really explain the motivation much.
