MEM_CANCEL_ONLINE case
Memory notifiers are being executed in a sequential order and when one of
them fails returning something different from NOTIFY_OK the remainder of
the notification chain is not being executed. When a memory block is being
onlined in online_pages() we do memory_notify(MEM_GOING_ONLINE, ) and if
one of the notifiers in the chain fails we end up doing
memory_notify(MEM_CANCEL_ONLINE, ) so it is possible for a notifier to see
MEM_CANCEL_ONLINE without seeing the corresponding MEM_GOING_ONLINE event.
E.g. when CONFIG_KASAN is enabled the kasan_mem_notifier() is being used
to prevent memory hotplug, it returns NOTIFY_BAD for all MEM_GOING_ONLINE
events. As kasan_mem_notifier() comes before the hv_memory_notifier() in
the notification chain we don't see the MEM_GOING_ONLINE event and we do
not take the ha_region_mutex. We, however, see the MEM_CANCEL_ONLINE event
and unconditionally try to release the lock, the following is observed:

[ 110.850927] [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ]
[ 110.850927] 4.1.0-rc3_bugxxxxxxx_test_xxxx #595 Not tainted
[ 110.850927] -------------------------------------
[ 110.850927] systemd-udevd/920 is trying to release lock

[ 110.850927] [<ffffffff81acda0e>] mutex_unlock+0xe/0x10
[ 110.850927] but there are no more locks to release!
At the same time we can have the ha_region_mutex taken when we get the
MEM_CANCEL_ONLINE event in case one of the memory notifiers after the
hv_memory_notifier() in the notification chain failed so we need to add
the mutex_is_locked() check. In case of MEM_ONLINE we are always supposed
to have the mutex locked.

balloon_wrk.num_pages is __u32 and it comes from host in struct dm_balloon
where it is also __u32. We, however, use 'int' in balloon_up() and in case
we happen to receive num_pages>INT_MAX request we'll end up allocating zero
pages as 'num_pages < alloc_unit' check in alloc_balloon_pages() will pass.
Change num_pages type to unsigned int.
In real life ballooning request come with num_pages in [512, 32768] range so
this is more a future-proof/cleanup.

'Drivers: hv: hv_balloon: refuse to balloon below the floor' fix does not
correctly handle the case when val.freeram < num_pages as val.freeram is
__kernel_ulong_t and the 'val.freeram - num_pages' value will be a huge
positive value instead of being negative.
Usually host doesn't ask us to balloon more than val.freeram but in case
he have a memory hog started after we post the last pressure report we
can get into troubles.

... and simplify alloc_balloon_pages() interface by removing redundant
alloc_error from it.
If we happen to enter balloon_up() with balloon_wrk.num_pages = 0 we will enter
infinite 'while (!done)' loop as alloc_balloon_pages() will be always returning
0 and not setting alloc_error. We will also be sending a meaningless message to
the host on every iteration.
The 'alloc_unit == 1 && alloc_error -> num_ballooned == 0' change and
alloc_error elimination requires a special comment. We do alloc_balloon_pages()
with 2 different alloc_unit values and there are 4 different
alloc_balloon_pages() results, let's check them all.
alloc_unit = 512:
1) num_ballooned = 0, alloc_error = 0: we do 'alloc_unit=1' and retry pre- and
post-patch.
2) num_ballooned > 0, alloc_error = 0: we check 'num_ballooned == num_pages'
and act accordingly, pre- and post-patch.
3) num_ballooned > 0, alloc_error > 0: we report this chunk and remain within
the loop, no changes here.
4) num_ballooned = 0, alloc_error > 0: we do 'alloc_unit=1' and retry pre- and
post-patch.
alloc_unit = 1:
1) num_ballooned = 0, alloc_error = 0: this can happen in two cases: when we
passed 'num_pages=0' to alloc_balloon_pages() or when there was no space in
bl_resp to place a single response. The second option is not possible as
bl_resp is of PAGE_SIZE size and single response 'union dm_mem_page_range' is
8 bytes, but the first one is (in theory, I think that Hyper-V host never
places such requests). Pre-patch code loops forever, post-patch code sends
a reply with more_pages = 0 and finishes.
2) num_ballooned > 0, alloc_error = 0: we ran out of space in bl_resp, we
report partial success and remain within the loop, no changes pre- and
post-patch.
3) num_ballooned > 0, alloc_error > 0: pre-patch code finishes, post-patch code
does one more try and if there is no progress (we finish with
'num_ballooned = 0') we finish. So we try a bit harder with this patch.
4) num_ballooned = 0, alloc_error > 0: both pre- and post-patch code enter
'more_pages = 0' branch and finish.
So this patch has two real effects:
1) We reply with an empty response to 'num_pages=0' request.
2) We try a bit harder on alloc_unit=1 allocations (and reply with an empty
tail reply in case we fail).
An empty reply should be supported by host as we were able to send it even with
pre-patch code when we were not able to allocate a single page.

Commit 79208c57da53 ("Drivers: hv: hv_balloon: Make adjustments in computing
the floor") was inacurate as it introduced a jump in our piecewiese linear
'floor' function:
At 2048MB we have:
Left limit:
104 + 2048/8 = 360
Right limit:
256 + 2048/16 = 384 (so the right value is 232)
We now have to make an adjustment at 8192 boundary:
232 + 8192/16 = 744
512 + 8192/32 = 768 (so the right value is 488)

Currently we add memory in 128Mb blocks but the request from host can be
aligned differently. In such case we add a partially backed block and
when this block goes online we skip onlining pages which are not backed
(hv_online_page() callback serves this purpose). When we receive next
request for the same host add region we online pages which were not backed
before with hv_bring_pgs_online(). However, we don't check if the the block
in question was onlined and online this tail unconditionally. This is bad as
we avoid all online_pages() logic: these pages are not accounted, we don't
send notifications (and hv_balloon is not the only receiver of them),...
And, first of all, nobody asked as to online these pages. Solve the issue by
checking if the last previously backed page was onlined and onlining the tail
only in case it was.

Memory blocks can be onlined in random order. When this order is not natural
some memory pages are not onlined because of the redundant check in
hv_online_page().
Here is a real world scenario:
1) Host tries to hot-add the following (process_hot_add):
pg_start=rg_start=0x48000, pfn_cnt=111616, rg_size=262144
2) This results in adding 4 memory blocks:
[ 109.057866] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x48000000-0x4fffffff]
[ 114.102698] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x50000000-0x57ffffff]
[ 119.168039] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x58000000-0x5fffffff]
[ 124.233053] init_memory_mapping: [mem 0x60000000-0x67ffffff]
The last one is incomplete but we have special has->covered_end_pfn counter to
avoid onlining non-backed frames and hv_bring_pgs_online() function to bring
them online later on.
3) Now we have 4 offline memory blocks: /sys/devices/system/memory/memory9-12
$ for f in /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/state; do echo $f `cat $f`; done | grep -v onlin
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory10/state offline
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory11/state offline
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory12/state offline
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory9/state offline
4) We bring them online in non-natural order:
$grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 966348 kB
$echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory12/state && grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 1019596 kB
$echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory11/state && grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 1150668 kB
$echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory9/state && grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 1150668 kB
As you can see memory9 block gives us zero additional memory. We can also
observe a huge discrepancy between host- and guest-reported memory sizes.
The root cause of the issue is the redundant pg >= covered_start_pfn check (and
covered_start_pfn advancing) in hv_online_page(). When upper memory block in
being onlined before the lower one (memory12 and memory11 in the above case) we
advance the covered_start_pfn pointer and all memory9 pages do not pass the
check. If the assumption that host always gives us requests in sequential order
and pg_start always equals rg_start when the first request for the new HA
region is received (that's the case in my testing) is correct than we can get
rid of covered_start_pfn and pg >= start_pfn check in hv_online_page() is
sufficient.
The current char-next branch is broken and this patch fixes
the bug.

When hot-added memory pages are not brought online or when some memory blocks
are sent offline the subsequent ballooning process kills the guest with OOM
killer. This happens as we don't report these pages as neither used nor free
and apparently host algorithm considers them as being unused. Keep track of
all online/offline operations and report all currently offline pages as being
used so host won't try to balloon them out.

acquire/release_region_mutex
When many memory regions are being added and automatically onlined the
following lockup is sometimes observed:
INFO: task udevd:1872 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
...
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff816ec0bc>] schedule_timeout+0x22c/0x350
[<ffffffff816eb98f>] wait_for_common+0x10f/0x160
[<ffffffff81067650>] ? default_wake_function+0x0/0x20

[<ffffffff8144cb9c>] hv_memory_notifier+0xdc/0x120
[<ffffffff816f298c>] notifier_call_chain+0x4c/0x70
...
When several memory blocks are going online simultaneously we got several
hv_memory_notifier() trying to acquire the ha_region_mutex. When this mutex is
being held by hot_add_req() all these competing acquire_region_mutex() do
mutex_trylock, fail, and queue themselves into wait_for_completion(..). However
when we do complete() from release_region_mutex() only one of them wakes up.
This could be solved by changing complete() -> complete_all() memory onlining
can be delayed as well, in that case we can still get several
hv_memory_notifier() runners at the same time trying to grab the mutex.
Only one of them will succeed and the others will hang for forever as
complete() is not being called. We don't see this issue often because we have
5sec onlining timeout in hv_mem_hot_add() and usually all udev events arrive
in this time frame.
Get rid of the trylock path, waiting on the mutex is supposed to provide the
required serialization.

As we hot-add 128 MB chunks of memory, we wait to ensure that the memory
is onlined before attempting to hot-add the next chunk. If the udev rule for
memory hot-add is not executed within the allowed time, we would rollback the

failure is that the memory is not onlined within the allowed time, we should not
be rolling back the state. Fix this bug.

On Hyper-V it will be very efficient to use 2M allocations in the guest as this
makes the ballooning protocol with the host that much more efficient. Hyper-V
uses page ranges (start pfn : number of pages) to specify memory being moved
around and with 2M pages this encoding can be very efficient. However, when
memory is returned to the guest, the host does not guarantee any granularity.
To deal with this issue, split the page soon after a successful 2M allocation
so that this memory can potentially be freed as 4K pages.
If 2M allocations fail, we revert to 4K allocations.
In this version of the patch, based on the feedback from Michal Hocko

The balloon driver is stateful. For instance, it needs to keep track of pages
that have been ballooned out to properly post pressure reports. This state cannot
be re-constructed if the driver were to be unloaded and subsequently loaded.
Furthermore, as we support memory hot-add as part of this driver, this driver becomes
even more stateful and this state cannot be re-created. Make the balloon driver

This resolves the following sparse warning:
drivers/hv/hv_balloon.c:548:6: sparse: symbol 'free_balloon_pages' was not declared. Should it be static?

Add the basic balloon driver. Windows hosts dynamically manage the guest
memory allocation via a combination memory hot add and ballooning. Memory
hot add is used to grow the guest memory upto the maximum memory that can be
allocatted to the guest. Ballooning is used to both shrink as well as expand
up to the max memory. Supporting hot add needs additional support from the
host. We will support hot add when this support is available. For now,
by setting the VM startup memory to the VM max memory, we can use
ballooning alone to dynamically manage memory allocation amongst
competing guests on a given host.
