Nodemasks library is highly employed by NUMA code, and it would be
logical to resolve the circular dependency by making NUMA headers
dependent nodemask.h.

arch, mm: pull out allocation of NODE_DATA to generic code

Architectures that support NUMA duplicate the code that allocates
NODE_DATA on the node-local memory with slight variations in reporting of
the addresses where the memory was allocated.

Use x86 version as the basis for the generic alloc_node_data() function
and call this function in architecture specific numa initialization.

Round up node data size to SMP_CACHE_BYTES rather than to PAGE_SIZE like
x86 used to do since the bootmem era when allocation granularity was
PAGE_SIZE anyway.

x86/numa: Fix SRAT lookup of CFMWS ranges with numa_fill_memblks()

x86/numa: Fix SRAT lookup of CFMWS ranges with numa_fill_memblks()

For configurations that have the kconfig option NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO
disabled, numa_fill_memblks() only returns with NUMA_NO_MEMBLK (-1).
SRAT lookup fails then because an existing SRAT memory range cannot be
found for a CFMWS address range. This causes the addition of a
duplicate numa_memblk with a different node id and a subsequent page
fault and kernel crash during boot.

Fix this by making numa_fill_memblks() always available regardless of
NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO.

As Dan suggested, the fix is implemented to remove numa_fill_memblks()
from sparsemem.h and alos using __weak for the function.

Note that the issue was initially introduced with [1]. But since
phys_to_target_node() was originally used that returned the valid node
0, an additional numa_memblk was not added. Though, the node id was
wrong too, a message is seen then in the logs:

kernel/numa.c: pr_info_once("Unknown target node for memory at 0x%llx, assuming node 0\n",

x86/numa: Introduce numa_fill_memblks()

numa_fill_memblks() fills in the gaps in numa_meminfo memblks
over an physical address range.

The ACPI driver will use numa_fill_memblks() to implement a new Linux
policy that prescribes extending proximity domains in a portion of a
CFMWS window to the entire window.

Dan Williams offered this explanation of the policy:
A CFWMS is an ACPI data structure that indicates *potential* locations
where CXL memory can be placed. It is the playground where the CXL
driver has free reign to establish regions. That space can be populated
by BIOS created regions, or driver created regions, after hotplug or
other reconfiguration.

When BIOS creates a region in a CXL Window it additionally describes
that subset of the Window range in the other typical ACPI tables SRAT,
SLIT, and HMAT. The rationale for BIOS not pre-describing the entire
CXL Window in SRAT, SLIT, and HMAT is that it can not predict the
future. I.e. there is nothing stopping higher or lower performance
devices being placed in the same Window. Compare that to ACPI memory
hotplug that just onlines additional capacity in the proximity domain
with little freedom for dynamic performance differentiation.

That leaves the OS with a choice, should unpopulated window capacity
match the proximity domain of an existing region, or should it allocate
a new one? This patch takes the simple position of minimizing proximity
domain proliferation by reusing any proximity domain intersection for
the entire Window. If the Window has no intersections then allocate a
new proximity domain. Note that SRAT, SLIT and HMAT information can be
enumerated dynamically in a standard way from device provided data.
Think of CXL as the end of ACPI needing to describe memory attributes,
CXL offers a standard discovery model for performance attributes, but
Linux still needs to interoperate with the old regime.

x86/sgx: Add an attribute for the amount of SGX memory in a NUMA node

== Problem ==

The amount of SGX memory on a system is determined by the BIOS and it
varies wildly between systems. It can be as small as dozens of MB's
and as large as many GB's on servers. Just like how applications need
to know how much regular RAM is available, enclave builders need to
know how much SGX memory an enclave can consume.

== Solution ==

Introduce a new sysfs file:

/sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/x86/sgx_total_bytes

to enumerate the amount of SGX memory available in each NUMA node.
This serves the same function for SGX as /proc/meminfo or
/sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/meminfo does for normal RAM.

'sgx_total_bytes' is needed today to help drive the SGX selftests.
SGX-specific swap code is exercised by creating overcommitted enclaves
which are larger than the physical SGX memory on the system. They
currently use a CPUID-based approach which can diverge from the actual
amount of SGX memory available. 'sgx_total_bytes' ensures that the
selftests can work efficiently and do not attempt stupid things like
creating a 100,000 MB enclave on a system with 128 MB of SGX memory.

== Implementation Details ==

Introduce CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_NODE_DEV_GROUP opt-in flag to expose an
arch specific attribute group, and add an attribute for the amount of
SGX memory in bytes to each NUMA node:

== ABI Design Discussion ==

As opposed to the per-node ABI, a single, global ABI was considered.
However, this would prevent enclaves from being able to size
themselves so that they fit on a single NUMA node. Essentially, a
single value would rule out NUMA optimizations for enclaves.

Create a new "x86/" directory inside each "nodeX/" sysfs directory.
'sgx_total_bytes' is expected to be the first of at least a few
sgx-specific files to be placed in the new directory. Just scanning
/proc/meminfo, these are the no-brainers that we have for RAM, but we
need for SGX:

MemTotal: xxxx kB // sgx_total_bytes (implemented here)
MemFree: yyyy kB // sgx_free_bytes
SwapTotal: zzzz kB // sgx_swapped_bytes

So, at *least* three. I think we will eventually end up needing
something more along the lines of a dozen. A new directory (as
opposed to being in the nodeX/ "root") directory avoids cluttering the
root with several "sgx_*" files.

Place the new file in a new "nodeX/x86/" directory because SGX is
highly x86-specific. It is very unlikely that any other architecture
(or even non-Intel x86 vendor) will ever implement SGX. Using "sgx/"
as opposed to "x86/" was also considered. But, there is a real chance
this can get used for other arch-specific purposes.

mm: fix phys_to_target_node() and memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() exports

The core-mm has a default __weak implementation of phys_to_target_node()
to mirror the weak definition of memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(). That
symbol is exported for modules. However, while the export in
mm/memory_hotplug.c exported the symbol in the configuration cases of:

CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO=y
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y

...and:

CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO=n
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y

...it failed to export the symbol in the case of:

CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO=y
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n

Not only is that broken, but Christoph points out that the kernel should
not be exporting any __weak symbol, which means that
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() example that phys_to_target_node() copied
is broken too.

Rework the definition of phys_to_target_node() and
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() to not require weak symbols. Move to the
common arch override design-pattern of an asm header defining a symbol
to replace the default implementation.

The only common header that all memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() producing
architectures implement is asm/sparsemem.h. In fact, powerpc already
defines its memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() helper in sparsemem.h.
Double-down on that observation and define phys_to_target_node() where
necessary in asm/sparsemem.h. An alternate consideration that was
discarded was to put this override in asm/numa.h, but that entangles
with the definition of MAX_NUMNODES relative to the inclusion of
linux/nodemask.h, and requires powerpc to grow a new header.

The dependency on NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO for DEV_DAX_HMEM_DEVICES is invalid
now that the symbol is properly exported / stubbed in all combinations
of CONFIG_NUMA_KEEP_MEMINFO and CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG.

mm/memory_hotplug: introduce default phys_to_target_node() implementation

In preparation to set a fallback value for dev_dax->target_node, introduce
generic fallback helpers for phys_to_target_node()

A generic implementation based on node-data or memblock was proposed, but
as noted by Mike:

"Here again, I would prefer to add a weak default for
phys_to_target_node() because the "generic" implementation is not really
generic.

The fallback to reserved ranges is x86 specfic because on x86 most of
the reserved areas is not in memblock.memory. AFAIK, no other
architecture does this."

The info message in the generic memory_add_physaddr_to_nid()
implementation is fixed up to properly reflect that
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() communicates "online" node info and
phys_to_target_node() indicates "target / to-be-onlined" node info.

x86/NUMA: Provide a range-to-target_node lookup facility

The DEV_DAX_KMEM facility is a generic mechanism to allow device-dax
instances, fronting performance-differentiated-memory like pmem, to be
added to the System RAM pool. The NUMA node for that hot-added memory is
derived from the device-dax instance's 'target_node' attribute.

Recall that the 'target_node' is the ACPI-PXM-to-node translation for
memory when it comes online whereas the 'numa_node' attribute of the
device represents the closest online cpu node.

Presently useful target_node information from the ACPI SRAT is discarded
with the expectation that "Reserved" memory will never be onlined. Now,
DEV_DAX_KMEM violates that assumption, there is a need to retain the
translation. Move, rather than discard, numa_memblk data to a secondary
array that memory_add_physaddr_to_target_node() may consider at a later
point in time.

ACPI: NUMA: Up-level "map to online node" functionality

The acpi_map_pxm_to_online_node() helper is used to find the closest
online node to a given proximity domain. This is used to map devices in
a proximity domain with no online memory or cpus to the closest online
node and populate a device's 'numa_node' property. The numa_node
property allows applications to be migrated "close" to a resource.

In preparation for providing a generic facility to optionally map an
address range to its closest online node, or the node the range would
represent were it to be onlined (target_node), up-level the core of
acpi_map_pxm_to_online_node() to a generic mm/numa helper.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

[PATCH] Configurable NODES_SHIFT

Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for
each arch. Its definition is sometimes configurable. Indeed, ia64 defines 5
NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree. But it looks a bit messy.

SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has
been changeable by config. Suitable node's number may be changed in the
future even if it is other architecture. So, I wrote configurable node's
number.

This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi
nodes except ia64. But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary.

On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2
config. But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too. So, I
changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT. It
would be simpler.

[PATCH] sparsemem memory model

Sparsemem abstracts the use of discontiguous mem_maps[]. This kind of
mem_map[] is needed by discontiguous memory machines (like in the old
CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM case) as well as memory hotplug systems. Sparsemem
replaces DISCONTIGMEM when enabled, and it is hoped that it can eventually
become a complete replacement.

A significant advantage over DISCONTIGMEM is that it's completely separated
from CONFIG_NUMA. When producing this patch, it became apparent in that NUMA
and DISCONTIG are often confused.

Another advantage is that sparse doesn't require each NUMA node's ranges to be
contiguous. It can handle overlapping ranges between nodes with no problems,
where DISCONTIGMEM currently throws away that memory.

Sparsemem uses an array to provide different pfn_to_page() translations for
each SECTION_SIZE area of physical memory. This is what allows the mem_map[]
to be chopped up.

In order to do quick pfn_to_page() operations, the section number of the page
is encoded in page->flags. Part of the sparsemem infrastructure enables
sharing of these bits more dynamically (at compile-time) between the
page_zone() and sparsemem operations. However, on 32-bit architectures, the
number of bits is quite limited, and may require growing the size of the
page->flags type in certain conditions. Several things might force this to
occur: a decrease in the SECTION_SIZE (if you want to hotplug smaller areas of
memory), an increase in the physical address space, or an increase in the
number of used page->flags.

One thing to note is that, once sparsemem is present, the NUMA node
information no longer needs to be stored in the page->flags. It might provide
speed increases on certain platforms and will be stored there if there is
room. But, if out of room, an alternate (theoretically slower) mechanism is
used.

This patch introduces CONFIG_FLATMEM. It is used in almost all cases where
there used to be an #ifndef DISCONTIG, because SPARSEMEM and DISCONTIGMEM
often have to compile out the same areas of code.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
