[PATCH RFC v3 0/9] virtio-mem: paravirtualized memory
Long time no RFC! I finally had time to get the next version of the Linux
driver side of virtio-mem into shape, incorporating ideas and feedback from
previous discussions.
This RFC is based on the series currently on the mm list:
- [PATCH 0/3] Remove __online_page_set_limits()
- [PATCH v1 0/3] mm/memory_hotplug: Export generic_online_page()
- [PATCH v4 0/8] mm/memory_hotplug: Shrink zones before removing memory
The current state (kept updated) is available on
- https://github.com/davidhildenbrand/linux/tree/virtio-mem
The basic idea of virtio-mem is to provide a flexible,
cross-architecture memory hot(un)plug solution that avoids many limitations
imposed by existing technologies, architectures, and interfaces. More
details can be found below and in linked material.
This RFC was only tested on x86-64, however, should theoretically work
on any Linux architecture that implements memory hot(un)plug - like
s390x. On x86-64, it is currently possible to add/remove memory to the
system in >= 4MB granularity. Memory hotplug works very reliable. For
memory unplug, there are no guarantees how much memory can actually get
unplugged, it depends on the setup. I have plans to improve that in the
future.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. virtio-mem
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The basic idea behind virtio-mem was presented at KVM Forum 2018. The
slides can be found at [1]. The previous RFC can be found at [2]. The
first RFC can be found at [3]. However, the concept evolved over time. The
KVM Forum slides roughly match the current design.
Patch #2 ("virtio-mem: Paravirtualized memory hotplug") contains quite
some
information, especially in "include/uapi/linux/virtio_mem.h":
Each virtio-mem device manages a dedicated region in physical address
space. Each device can belong to a single NUMA node, multiple devices
for a single NUMA node are possible. A virtio-mem device is like a
"resizable DIMM" consisting of small memory blocks that can be
plugged
or unplugged. The device driver is responsible for (un)plugging memory
blocks on demand.
Virtio-mem devices can only operate on their assigned memory region in
order to (un)plug memory. A device cannot (un)plug memory belonging to
other devices.
The "region_size" corresponds to the maximum amount of memory that
can
be provided by a device. The "size" corresponds to the amount of
memory
that is currently plugged. "requested_size" corresponds to a request
from the device to the device driver to (un)plug blocks. The
device driver should try to (un)plug blocks in order to reach the
"requested_size". It is impossible to plug more memory than
requested.
The "usable_region_size" represents the memory region that can
actually
be used to (un)plug memory. It is always at least as big as the
"requested_size" and will grow dynamically. It will only shrink when
explicitly triggered (VIRTIO_MEM_REQ_UNPLUG).
Memory in the usable region can usually be read, however, there are no
guarantees. It can happen that the device cannot process a request,
because it is busy. The device driver has to retry later.
Usually, during system resets all memory will get unplugged, so the
device driver can start with a clean state. However, in specific
scenarios (if the device is busy) it can happen that the device still
has memory plugged. The device driver can request to unplug all memory
(VIRTIO_MEM_REQ_UNPLUG) - which might take a while to succeed if the
device is busy.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Linux Implementation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This RFC reuses quite some existing MM infrastructure, however, has to
expose some additional functionality.
Memory blocks (e.g., 128MB) are added/removed on demand. Within these
memory blocks, subblocks (e.g., 4MB) are plugged/unplugged. The sizes
depend on the target architecture, MAX_ORDER + pageblock_order, and
the block size of a virtio-mem device.
add_memory()/try_remove_memory() is used to add/remove memory blocks.
virtio-mem will not online memory blocks itself. This has to be done by
user space, or configured into the kernel
(CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE). virtio-mem will only unplug memory
that was online to the ZONE_NORMAL. Memory is suggested to be onlined to
the ZONE_NORMAL for now.
The memory hotplug notifier is used to properly synchronize against
onlining/offlining of memory blocks and to track the states of memory
blocks (including the zone memory blocks are onlined to). Locking is
done similar to the PPC CMA implementation.
The set_online_page() callback is used to keep unplugged subblocks
of a memory block fake-offline when onlining the memory block.
generic_online_page() is used to fake-online plugged subblocks. This
handling is similar to the Hyper-V balloon driver.
PG_offline is used to mark unplugged subblocks as offline, so e.g.,
dumping tools (makedumpfile) will skip these pages. This is similar to
other balloon drivers like virtio-balloon and Hyper-V.
PG_offline + reference count of 0 [new] is now also used to mark pages as
a "skip" when offlining memory blocks. This allows to offline memory
blocks
that have partially unplugged subblocks - or are completely unplugged.
alloc_contig_range()/free_contig_range() [now exposed] is used to
unplug/plug subblocks of memory blocks the are already exposed to Linux.
offline_and_remove_memory() [new] is used to offline a fully unplugged
memory block and remove it from Linux.
A lot of additional information can be found in the separate patches and
as comments in the code itself.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Major changes since last RFC
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
A lot of things changed, especially also on the QEMU + virtio side. The
biggest changes on the Linux driver side are:
- Onlining/offlining of subblocks is now emulated on top of memory blocks.
set_online_page()+alloc_contig_range()+free_contig_range() is now used
for that. Core MM does not have to be modified and will continue to
online/offline full memory blocks.
- Onlining/offlining of memory blocks is no longer performed by virtio-mem.
- Pg_offline is upstream and can be used. It is also used to allow
offlining of partially unplugged memory blocks.
- Memory block states + subblocks are now tracked more space-efficient.
- Proper kexec(), kdump(), driver unload, driver reload, ZONE_MOVABLE, ...
handling.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Future work
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The separate patches contain a lot of future work items. One of the next
steps is to make memory unplug more likely to succeed - currently, there
are no guarantees on how much memory can get unplugged again. I have
various ideas on how to limit fragmentation of all memory blocks that
virtio-mem added.
Memory hotplug:
- Reduce the amount of memory resources if that turnes out to be an
issue. Or try to speed up relevant code paths to deal with many
resources.
- Allocate the vmemmap from the added memory. Makes hotplug more likely
to succeed, the vmemmap is stored on the same NUMA node and that
unmovable memory will later not hinder unplug.
Memory hotunplug:
- Performance improvements:
-- Sense (lockless) if it make sense to try alloc_contig_range() at all
before directly trying to isolate and taking locks.
-- Try to unplug bigger chunks if possible first.
-- Identify free areas first, that don't have to be evacuated.
- Make unplug more likely to succeed:
-- The "issue" is that in the ZONE_NORMAL, the buddy will randomly
allocate memory. Only pageblocks somewhat limit fragmentation,
however we would want to limit fragmentation on subblock granularity
and even memory block granularity. One idea is to have a new
ZONE_PREFER_MOVABLE. Memory blocks will then be onlined to ZONE_NORMAL
/ ZONE_PREFER_MOVABLE in a certain ratio per node (e.g.,
1:4). This makes unplug of quite some memory likely to succeed in most
setups. ZONE_PREFER_MOVABLE is then a mixture of ZONE_NORMAL and
ZONE_MOVABlE. Especially, movable data can end up on that zone, but
only if really required - avoiding running out of memory on ZONE
imbalances. The zone fallback order would be
MOVABLE=>PREFER_MOVABLE=>HIGHMEM=>NORMAL=>PREFER_MOVABLE=>DMA32=>DMA
-- Allocate memmap from added memory. This way, less unmovable data can
end up on the memory blocks.
-- Call drop_slab() before trying to unplug. Eventually shrink other
caches.
- Better retry handling in case memory is busy. We certainly don't want
to try for ever in a short interval to try to get some memory back.
- OOM handling, e.g., via an OOM handler.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Example Usage
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
A very basic QEMU prototype (kept updated) is available at:
- https://github.com/davidhildenbrand/qemu/tree/virtio-mem
It lacks various features, however works to test the guest driver side:
- No support for resizable memory regions / memory backends
- No protection of unplugged memory (esp., userfaultfd-wp)
- No dump/migration/XXX optimizations to skip over unplugged memory
Start QEMU with two virtio-mem devices (one per NUMA node):
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4G,maxmem=20G \
-smp sockets=2,cores=2 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0-1 -numa node,nodeid=1,cpus=2-3 \
[...]
-object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=8G \
-device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm0,memdev=mem0,node=0,requested-size=128M \
-object memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=8G \
-device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm1,memdev=mem1,node=1,requested-size=80M
Query the configuration:
QEMU 4.1.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info memory-devices

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Q/A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q: Why add/remove parts ("subblocks") of memory blocks/sections?
A: Flexibility (section size depends on the architecture) - e.g., some
architectures have a section size of 2GB. Also, the memory block size
is variable (e.g., on x86-64). I want to avoid any such restrictions.
Some use cases want to add/remove memory in smaller granularities to a
VM (e.g., the Hyper-V balloon also implements this) - especially smaller
VMs like used for kata containers. Also, on memory unplug, it is more
reliable to free-up and unplug multiple small chunks instead
of one big chunk. E.g., if one page of a DIMM is either unmovable or
pinned, the DIMM can't get unplugged. This approach is basically a
compromise between DIMM-based memory hot(un)plug and balloon
inflation/deflation, which works mostly on page granularity.
Q: Why care about memory blocks?
A: They are the way to tell user space about new memory. This way,
memory can get onlined/offlined by user space. Also, e.g., kdump
relies on udev events to reload kexec when memory blocks are
onlined/offlined. Memory blocks are the "real" memory hot(un)plug
granularity. Everything that's smaller has to be emulated "on
top".
Q: Won't memory unplug of subblocks fragment memory?
A: Yes and no. Unplugging e.g., >=4MB subblocks on x86-64 will not really
fragment memory like unplugging random pages like a balloon driver does.
Buddy merging will not be limited. However, any allocation that requires
bigger consecutive memory chunks (e.g., gigantic pages) might observe
the fragmentation. Possible solutions: Allocate gigantic huge pages
before unplugging memory, don't unplug memory, combine virtio-mem with
DIMM based memory or bigger initial memory. Remember, a virtio-mem
device will only unplug on the memory range it manages, not on other
DIMMs. Unplug of single memory blocks will result in similar
fragmentation in respect to gigantic huge pages.
Q: How reliable is memory unplug?
A: There are no guarantees on how much memory can get unplugged
again. However, it is more likely to find 4MB chunks to unplug than
e.g., 128MB chunks. If memory is terribly fragmented, there is nothing
we can do - for now. I consider memory hotplug the first primary use
of virtio-mem. Memory unplug might usually work, but we want to improve
the performance and the amount of memory we can actually unplug later.
Q: Why not unplug from the ZONE_MOVABLE?
A: Unplugged memory chunks are unmovable. Unmovable data must not end up
on the ZONE_MOVABLE - similar to gigantic pages - they will never be
allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE. Teaching MM to move unplugged chunks within
a device might be problematic and will require a new guest->hypervisor
command to move unplugged chunks. virtio-mem added memory can be onlined
to the ZONE_MOVABLE, but subblocks will not get unplugged from it.
Q: How big should the initial (!virtio-mem) memory of a VM be?
A: virtio-mem memory will not go to the DMA zones. So to avoid running out
of DMA memory, I suggest something like 2-3GB on x86-64. But many
VMs can most probably deal with less DMA memory - depends on the use
case.

[PATCH RFC v3 2/9] virtio-mem: Paravirtualized memory hotplug
Each virtio-mem device owns exactly one memory region. It is responsible
for adding/removing memory from that memory region on request.
When the device driver starts up, the requested amount of memory is
queried and then plugged to Linux. On request, further memory can be
plugged or unplugged. This patch only implements the plugging part.
On x86-64, memory can currently be plugged in 4MB ("subblock")
granularity.
When required, a new memory block will be added (e.g., usually 128MB on
x86-64) in order to plug more subblocks. Only x86-64 was tested for now.
The online_page callback is used to keep unplugged subblocks offline
when onlining memory - similar to the Hyper-V balloon driver. Unplugged
pages are marked PG_offline, to tell dump tools (e.g., makedumpfile) to
skip them.
User space is usually responsible for onlining the added memory. The
memory hotplug notifier is used to synchronize virtio-mem activity
against memory onlining/offlining.
Each virtio-mem device can belong to a NUMA node, which allows us to
easily add/remove small chunks of memory to/from a specific NUMA node by
using multiple virtio-mem devices. Something that works even when the
guest has no idea about the NUMA topology.
One way to view virtio-mem is as a "resizable DIMM" or a DIMM with
many
"sub-DIMMS".
This patch directly introduces the basic infrastructure to implement memory
unplug. Especially the memory block states and subblock bitmaps will be
heavily used there.
Notes:
- Memory blocks that are partally unplugged must not be onlined to the
MOVABLE_ZONE. They contain unmovable parts and might e.g., result
in warnings when trying to offline them.
- In the kdump kernel, we don't want to load the driver, to not mess
with memory to be dumped.
- In case memory is to be onlined by user space, we limit the amount of
offline memory blocks, to not run out of memory.
- Suspend/Hibernate is not supported due to the way virtio-mem devices
behave. Limited support might be possible in the future.
- Reloading the device driver is not supported.
- When unloading the driver, we have to remove partially plugged offline
memory blocks. Otherwise they could get fully onlined later on, when
we no longer have control over via the online_page callback.
- As the hypervisor might suddenly be busy (during reboot, in-between
requests, when adding of memory fails), we have to take care of some
corner cases - especially virtio_mem_unplug_pending_mb() and
virtio_mem_send_unplug_all_request(). The hypervisor could for example
be busy if it is currently migrating the guest.
Future work:
- Reduce the amount of memory resources if that turnes out to be an
issue. Or try to speed up relevant code paths to deal with many
resources.
- Allocate the vmemmap from the added memory. Makes hotplug more likely
to succeed, the vmemmap is stored on the same NUMA node and that
unmovable memory will later not hinder unplug.

+ * Each virtio-mem device manages a dedicated region in physical address

plugged
+ * or unplugged. The device driver is responsible for (un)plugging memory
+ * blocks on demand.
+ *
+ * Virtio-mem devices can only operate on their assigned memory region in
+ * order to (un)plug memory. A device cannot (un)plug memory belonging to
+ * other devices.
+ *
+ * The "region_size" corresponds to the maximum amount of memory that
can
+ * be provided by a device. The "size" corresponds to the amount of
memory
+ * that is currently plugged. "requested_size" corresponds to a
request
+ * from the device to the device driver to (un)plug blocks. The
+ * device driver should try to (un)plug blocks in order to reach the
+ * "requested_size". It is impossible to plug more memory than
requested.
+ *
+ * The "usable_region_size" represents the memory region that can
actually
+ * be used to (un)plug memory. It is always at least as big as the

[PATCH RFC v3 4/9] mm: Export alloc_contig_range() / free_contig_range()
A virtio-mem device wants to allocate memory from the memory region it manages in order to unplug it in the hypervisor - similar to a balloon driver. Also, it might want to plug previously unplugged (allocated) memory and give it back to Linux. alloc_contig_range() / free_contig_range() seem to be the perfect interface for this task. In contrast to existing balloon devices, a virtio-mem device operates on bigger chunks (e.g., 4MB) and only on physical memory it manages. It tracks which chunks (subblocks) are still plugged, so it can go ahead and try to alloc_contig_range()+unplug them on unplug request, or plug+free_contig_range() unplugged chunks on plug requests. A virtio-mem device will use alloc_contig_range() / free_contig_range() only on ranges that belong to the same node/zone in at least MAX(MAX_ORDER - 1, pageblock_order) order granularity - e.g., 4MB on x86-64. The virtio-mem device added that memory, so the memory exists and does not contain any holes. virtio-mem will only try to allocate on ZONE_NORMAL, never on ZONE_MOVABLE, just like when allocating gigantic pages (we don't put unmovable data into the movable zone).

[PATCH RFC v3 5/9] virtio-mem: Paravirtualized memory hotunplug part 2
We can use alloc_contig_range() to try to unplug subblocks. Unplugged
blocks will be marked PG_offline, however, don't have the PG_reserved
flag set. This way, we can differentiate these allocated subblocks from
subblocks that were never onlined and handle them properly in
virtio_mem_fake_online(). free_contig_range() is used to hand back
subblocks to Linux.
It is worth noting that there are no guarantess on how much memory can
actually get unplugged again. All device memory might completely be
fragmented with unmovable data, such that no subblock can get unplugged.
We might want to improve the unplugging capability in the future.
We are not touching the ZONE_MOVABLE. If memory is onlined to the
ZONE_MOVABLE, it can only get unplugged after that memory was offlined
manually by user space. In normal operation, virtio-mem memory is
suggested to be onlined to ZONE_NORMAL. In the future, we will try to
make unplug more likely to succeed.
Future work:
- Offline + remove memory blocks once all subblocks were unplugged. This
might then free up unmovable data un other memory blocks.
- Performance improvements:
-- Sense (lockless) if it make sense to try alloc_contig_range() at all
before directly trying to isolate and taking locks.
-- Try to unplug bigger chunks if possible first.
-- Identify free areas first, that don't have to be evacuated.
- Make unplug more likely to succeed:
-- The "issue" is that in the ZONE_NORMAL, the buddy will randomly
allocate memory. Only pageblocks somewhat limit fragmentation,
however we would want to limit fragmentation on subblock granularity
and even memory block granularity. One idea is to have a new
ZONE_PREFER_MOVABLE. Memory blocks will then be onlined to ZONE_NORMAL
/ ZONE_PREFER_MOVABLE in a certain ratio per node (e.g.,
1:4). This makes unplug of quite some memory likely to succeed in most
setups. ZONE_PREFER_MOVABLE is then a mixture of ZONE_NORMAL and
ZONE_MOVABlE. Especially, movable data can end up on that zone, but
only if really required - avoiding running out of memory on ZONE
imbalances. The zone fallback order would be
MOVABLE=>PREFER_MOVABLE=>HIGHMEM=>NORMAL=>PREFER_MOVABLE=>DMA32=>DMA
-- Allocate memmap from added memory. This way, less unmovable data can
end up on the memory blocks.
-- Call drop_slab() before trying to unplug. Eventually shrink other
caches.
- Better retry handling in case memory is busy. We certainly don't want
to try for ever in a short interval to try to get some memory back.
- OOM handling, e.g., via an OOM handler.

[PATCH RFC v3 6/9] mm: Allow to offline PageOffline() pages with a reference count of 0
virtio-mem wants to allow to offline memory blocks of which some parts
were unplugged, especially, to later offline and remove completely
unplugged memory blocks. The important part is that PageOffline() has
to remain set until the section is offline, so these pages will never
get accessed (e.g., when dumping). The pages should not be handed
back to the buddy (which would require clearing PageOffline() and
result in issues if offlining fails and the pages are suddenly in the
buddy).
Let's use "PageOffline() + reference count = 0" as a sign to
memory offlining code that these pages can simply be skipped when
offlining, similar to free or HWPoison pages.
Pass flags to test_pages_isolated(), similar as already done for
has_unmovable_pages(). Use a new flag to indicate the
requirement of memory offlining to skip over these special pages.
In has_unmovable_pages(), make sure the pages won't be detected as
movable. This is not strictly necessary, however makes e.g.,
alloc_contig_range() stop early, trying to isolate such page blocks -
compared to failing later when testing if all pages were isolated.
Also, make sure that when a reference to a PageOffline() page is
dropped, that the page will not be returned to the buddy.
memory devices (like virtio-mem) that want to make use of this
functionality have to make sure to synchronize against memory offlining,
using the memory hotplug notifier.
Alternative: Allow to offline with a reference count of 1
and use some other sign in the struct page that offlining is permitted.

[PATCH RFC v3 7/9] virtio-mem: Allow to offline partially unplugged memory blocks
Dropping the reference count of PageOffline() pages allows offlining
code to skip them. However, we also have to convert PG_reserved to
another flag - let's use PG_dirty - so has_unmovable_pages() will
properly handle them. PG_reserved pages get detected as unmovable right
away.
We need the flag to see if we are onlining pages the first time, or if
we allocated them via alloc_contig_range().
Properly take care of offlining code also modifying the stats and
special handling in case the driver gets unloaded.

[PATCH RFC v3 8/9] mm/memory_hotplug: Introduce offline_and_remove_memory()
virtio-mem wants to offline and remove a memory block once it unplugged
all subblocks (e.g., using alloc_contig_range()). Let's provide
an interface to do that from a driver. virtio-mem already supports to
offline partially unplugged memory blocks. Offlining a fully unplugged
memory block will not require to migrate any pages. All unplugged
subblocks are PageOffline() and have a reference count of 0 - so
offlining code will simply skip them.
All we need an interface to trigger the "offlining" and the removing
in a
single operation - to make sure the memory block cannot get onlined by
user space again before it gets removed.
To keep things simple, allow to only work on a single memory block.

[PATCH RFC v3 9/9] virtio-mem: Offline and remove completely unplugged memory blocks
Let's offline+remove memory blocks once all subblocks are unplugged. We
can use the new Linux MM interface for that. As no memory is in use
anymore, this shouldn't take a long time and shouldn't fail. There might
be corner cases where the offlining could still fail (especially, if
another notifier NACKs the offlining request).

In other words do we need to restrict the usage this interface only to GPL modules and why if so. All other allocator APIs are EXPORT_SYMBOL so there should better be a good reason for this one to differ. I can understand that this one is slightly different by requesting a specific range of the memory but it is still under a full control of the core MM to say no.> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm at linux-foundation.org> > Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko at suse.com> > Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka at suse.cz> > Cc: Oscar Salvador <osalvador at suse.de> > Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman at techsingularity.net> > Cc: Mike Rapoport <rppt at linux.ibm.com> > Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams at intel.com> > Cc: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck at linux.intel.com> > Cc: Pavel Tatashin <pavel.tatashin at microsoft.com> > Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider at google.com> > Signed-off-by: David Hildenbrand <david at redhat.com>Other than that, I do not think exporting this function is harmful.

I do not see onlining code to take care of this special case. What should happen when offline && online? Should we allow to try_remove_memory to succeed with these pages? Do we really have hook into __put_page? Why do we even care about the reference count of those pages? Wouldn't it be just more consistent to elevate the reference count (I guess this is what you suggest in the last paragraph) and the virtio driver would return that page to the buddy by regular put_page. This is also related to the above question about the physical memory remove.

They are both unmovable for allocator purposes and offlineable for the hotplug, right? Should we just hide them behind a helper and use it rather than an explicit SKIP_$FOO? -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs

I am also not really sure why do you want/need to control beyond the offlining stage. Care to explain some more? -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs
