Subject: [PATCH v3 00/23] device-dax: Support sub-dividing soft-reserved
ranges
Changes since v2 [1]:
- Rebase on next/master to resolve conflicts with pending mem-hotplug
and memremap_pages() changes in -mm
- Drop attempt at a generic phys_to_target_node() implementation and
just follow the default fallback approach taken with
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() (Mike)
- Fix test_hmm and other compilation fixups (Ralph)
- Integrate Joao's extensions to the device-dax sub-division interface
(per-device align, user-directed extent allocation). (Joao)

Merge notes:
Andrew, this series is rebased on today's next/master to resolve
conflicts with some pending patches in -mm. I'd like to take it through
your tree given the intersections with memremap_pages() and memory
hotplug. If at all possible I'd like to see it in v5.10, but I realize
time is short. Outside of the Intel identified use cases for this Joao
has identified a use case for Oracle as well.
I would have sent this earlier save for the fact I am mostly offline
tending to a newborn these days. Vishal has stepped up to take on care
and feeding of this patchset if additional review / integration fixups
are needed.
The one test feedback this wants is from Justin (justin.he@....com), and
whether this lights up dax_kmem and now dax_hmem for him on arm64.
Otherwise, Joao has written unit tests for this in his enabling of the
daxctl userspace utility [2].

Cover:
The device-dax facility allows an address range to be directly mapped
through a chardev, or optionally hotplugged to the core kernel page
allocator as System-RAM. It is the mechanism for converting persistent
memory (pmem) to be used as another volatile memory pool i.e. the
current Memory Tiering hot topic on linux-mm.
In the case of pmem the nvdimm-namespace-label mechanism can sub-divide
it, but that labeling mechanism is not available / applicable to
soft-reserved ("EFI specific purpose") memory [3]. This series provides
a sysfs-mechanism for the daxctl utility to enable provisioning of
volatile-soft-reserved memory ranges.
The motivations for this facility are:
1/ Allow performance differentiated memory ranges to be split between
kernel-managed and directly-accessed use cases.
2/ Allow physical memory to be provisioned along performance relevant
address boundaries. For example, divide a memory-side cache [4] along
cache-color boundaries.
3/ Parcel out soft-reserved memory to VMs using device-dax as a security
/ permissions boundary [5]. Specifically I have seen people (ab)using
memmap=nn!ss (mark System-RAM as Persistent Memory) just to get the
device-dax interface on custom address ranges. A follow-on for the VM
use case is to teach device-dax to dynamically allocate 'struct page' at
runtime to reduce the duplication of 'struct page' space in both the
guest and the host kernel for the same physical pages.
