The memory hot(un)plug documentation is outdated and incomplete. Most of
the content dates back to 2007, so it's time for a major overhaul.
Let's rewrite, reorganize and update most parts of the documentation. In
addition to memory hot(un)plug, also add some details regarding
ZONE_MOVABLE, with memory hotunplug being one of its main consumers.
Drop the file history, that information can more reliably be had from the
git log.
The style of the document is also properly fixed that e.g., "restview"
renders it cleanly now.
In the future, we might add some more details about virt users like
virtio-mem, the XEN balloon, the Hyper-V balloon and ppc64 dlpar.

Adds a new mode to the existing mempolicy modes, MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY.
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY will be adequately documented in the internal
admin-guide with this patch. Eventually, the man pages for mbind(2),
get_mempolicy(2), set_mempolicy(2) and numactl(8) will also have text
about this mode. Those shall contain the canonical reference.
NUMA systems continue to become more prevalent. New technologies like
PMEM make finer grain control over memory access patterns increasingly
desirable. MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY allows userspace to specify a set of nodes
that will be tried first when performing allocations. If those
allocations fail, all remaining nodes will be tried. It's a straight
forward API which solves many of the presumptive needs of system
administrators wanting to optimize workloads on such machines. The mode
will work either per VMA, or per thread.

When we free a HugeTLB page to the buddy allocator, we need to allocate
the vmemmap pages associated with it. However, we may not be able to
allocate the vmemmap pages when the system is under memory pressure. In
this case, we just refuse to free the HugeTLB page. This changes behavior
in some corner cases as listed below:
1) Failing to free a huge page triggered by the user (decrease nr_pages).
User needs to try again later.
2) Failing to free a surplus huge page when freed by the application.
Try again later when freeing a huge page next time.
3) Failing to dissolve a free huge page on ZONE_MOVABLE via
offline_pages().
This can happen when we have plenty of ZONE_MOVABLE memory, but
not enough kernel memory to allocate vmemmmap pages. We may even
be able to migrate huge page contents, but will not be able to
dissolve the source huge page. This will prevent an offline
operation and is unfortunate as memory offlining is expected to
succeed on movable zones. Users that depend on memory hotplug
to succeed for movable zones should carefully consider whether the
memory savings gained from this feature are worth the risk of
possibly not being able to offline memory in certain situations.
4) Failing to dissolve a huge page on CMA/ZONE_MOVABLE via
alloc_contig_range() - once we have that handling in place. Mainly
affects CMA and virtio-mem.
Similar to 3). virito-mem will handle migration errors gracefully.
CMA might be able to fallback on other free areas within the CMA
region.
Vmemmap pages are allocated from the page freeing context. In order for
those allocations to be not disruptive (e.g. trigger oom killer)
__GFP_NORETRY is used. hugetlb_lock is dropped for the allocation because
a non sleeping allocation would be too fragile and it could fail too
easily under memory pressure. GFP_ATOMIC or other modes to access memory
reserves is not used because we want to prevent consuming reserves under
heavy hugetlb freeing.

No need to store the value for each and every memory block, as we can
easily query the value at runtime. Reshuffle the members to optimize the
memory layout. Also, let's clarify what the interface once was used for
and why it's legacy nowadays.
"phys_device" was used on s390x in older versions of lsmem[2]/chmem[3],
back when they were still part of s390x-tools. They were later replaced
by the variants in linux-utils. For example, RHEL6 and RHEL7 contain
lsmem/chmem from s390-utils. RHEL8 switched to versions from util-linux
on s390x [4].
"phys_device" was added with sysfs support for memory hotplug in commit
3947be1969 ("[PATCH] memory hotplug: sysfs and add/remove functions") in
2005. It always returned 0.
s390x started returning something != 0 on some setups (if sclp.rzm is set
by HW) in 2010 via commit 57b552ba0b ("memory hotplug/s390: set
phys_device").
For s390x, it allowed for identifying which memory block devices belong to
the same storage increment (RZM). Only if all memory block devices
comprising a single storage increment were offline, the memory could
actually be removed in the hypervisor.
Since commit e5d709bb5f ("s390/memory hotplug: provide
memory_block_size_bytes() function") in 2013 a memory block device spans
at least one storage increment - which is why the interface isn't really
helpful/used anymore (except by old lsmem/chmem tools).
There were once RFC patches to make use of "phys_device" in ACPI context;
however, the underlying problem could be solved using different interfaces

Since commit 3917c80280 ("thp: change CoW semantics for anon-THP"),
THP CoW page fault is rewritten. Now it just splits pmd then fallback
to base page fault, it doesn't try to allocate THP anymore. So it is no
longer counted in THP_FAULT_ALLOC.
Remove the obsolete statement in documentation about THP CoW allocation
to avoid confusion.

With all hugetlb page processing done in a single file clean up code.
- Make code match desired semantics
- Update documentation with semantics
- Make all warnings and errors messages start with 'HugeTLB:'.
- Consistently name command line parsing routines.
- Warn if !hugepages_supported() and command line parameters have
been specified.
- Add comments to code
- Describe some of the subtle interactions
- Describe semantics of command line arguments
This patch also fixes issues with implicitly setting the number of
gigantic huge pages to preallocate. Previously on X86 command line,
hugepages=2 default_hugepagesz=1G
would result in zero 1G pages being preallocated and,
# grep HugePages_Total /proc/meminfo
HugePages_Total: 0
# sysctl -a | grep nr_hugepages
vm.nr_hugepages = 2
vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy = 2
# cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
2
After this patch 2 gigantic pages will be preallocated and all the proc,
sysfs, sysctl and meminfo files will accurately reflect this.
To address the issue with gigantic pages, a small change in behavior was
made to command line processing. Previously the command line,
hugepages=128 default_hugepagesz=2M hugepagesz=2M hugepages=256
would result in the allocation of 256 2M huge pages. The value 128 would
be ignored without any warning. After this patch, 128 2M pages will be
allocated and a warning message will be displayed indicating the value of
256 is ignored. This change in behavior is required because allocation of
implicitly specified gigantic pages must be done when the
default_hugepagesz= is encountered for gigantic pages. Previously the
code waited until later in the boot process (hugetlb_init), to allocate
pages of default size. However the bootmem allocator required for
gigantic allocations is not available at this time.

A higher value may increase memory footprint for some workloads.

The thp_fault_fallback and thp_file_fallback vmstats are incremented if
either the hugepage allocation fails through the page allocator or the
hugepage charge fails through mem cgroup.
This patch leaves this field untouched but adds two new fields,
thp_{fault,file}_fallback_charge, which is incremented only when the mem
cgroup charge fails.
This distinguishes between attempted hugepage allocations that fail due to
fragmentation (or low memory conditions) and those that fail due to mem
cgroup limits. That can be used to determine the impact of fragmentation
on the system by excluding faults that failed due to memcg usage.

The existing thp_fault_fallback indicates when thp attempts to allocate a
hugepage but fails, or if the hugepage cannot be charged to the mem cgroup
hierarchy.
Extend this to shmem as well. Adds a new thp_file_fallback to complement
thp_file_alloc that gets incremented when a hugepage is attempted to be
allocated but fails, or if it cannot be charged to the mem cgroup
hierarchy.
Additionally, remove the check for CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGE_PAGECACHE from
shmem_alloc_hugepage() since it is only called with this configuration
option.

- A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro. These create more
than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with other

that, I think, will go to you directly later on.
- A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos, and one
on Spectre vulnerabilities.
- Various improvements to the build system, including automatic markup of
function() references because some people, for reasons I will never
understand, were of the opinion that :c:func:``function()`` is
unattractive and not fun to type.
- We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.
- Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc.

Merge tag 'docs-5.3' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull Documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It's been a relatively busy cycle for docs:
- A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro. These create more
than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with
other trees, unfortunately. He has a lot more of these waiting on
the wings that, I think, will go to you directly later on.
- A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos,
and one on Spectre vulnerabilities.
- Various improvements to the build system, including automatic
markup of function() references because some people, for reasons I
will never understand, were of the opinion that
:c:func:``function()`` is unattractive and not fun to type.
- We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.
- Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc"

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
"Documentation updates and the addition of cgroup_parse_float() which
will be used by new controllers including blk-iocost"
* 'for-5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup:
docs: cgroup-v1: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst
cgroup: Move cgroup_parse_float() implementation out of CONFIG_SYSFS
cgroup: add cgroup_parse_float()
Convert the cgroup-v1 files to ReST format, in order to
allow a later addition to the admin-guide.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

When building it, it gets this warning:
Documentation/admin-guide/mm/numaperf.rst:168: WARNING: Footnote [1] is not referenced.
The problem is that this is not really a reference, as it is not
mentioned within the documentation.

Commit 13bac55ef7 ("doc/mm: New documentation for memory performance")
added numaperf.rst, but did not add it to the TOC tree. There was also an
incorrectly marked literal block leading to this warning sequence:
numaperf.rst:24: WARNING: Unexpected indentation.
numaperf.rst:24: WARNING: Inline substitution_reference start-string without end-string.
numaperf.rst:25: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.
Fix the block and add the file to the document tree.

Platforms may provide system memory where some physical address ranges
perform differently than others, or is cached by the system on the
memory side.
Add documentation describing a high level overview of such systems and the
perforamnce and caching attributes the kernel provides for applications
wishing to query this information.
