[PATCH] mm/hugetlb: split hugetlb_cma in nodes with memory

From: Barry Song
Date: Tue Jul 07 2020 - 20:25:21 EST


Rather than splitting huge_cma in online nodes, it is better to do it in
nodes with memory.
For an ARM64 server with four numa nodes and only node0 has memory. If I
set hugetlb_cma=4G in bootargs,

without this patch, I got the below printk:
hugetlb_cma: reserve 4096 MiB, up to 1024 MiB per node
hugetlb_cma: reserved 1024 MiB on node 0
hugetlb_cma: reservation failed: err -12, node 1
hugetlb_cma: reservation failed: err -12, node 2
hugetlb_cma: reservation failed: err -12, node 3

hugetlb_cma size is broken once the system has nodes without memory.

With this patch, I got the below printk:
hugetlb_cma: reserve 4096 MiB, up to 4096 MiB per node
hugetlb_cma: reserved 4096 MiB on node 0

So this patch fixes the broken hugetlb_cma size on arm64.

Jonathan Cameron tested this patch on x86 platform. Jonathan figured out x86
is much different with arm64. hugetlb_cma size has never broken on x86.
On arm64 all nodes are marked online at the same time. On x86, only
nodes with memory are initially marked as online:
initmem_init()->x86_numa_init()->numa_init()->
numa_register_memblks()->alloc_node_data()->node_set_online()
So at time of the existing cma setup call only the memory containing nodes
are online. The other nodes are brought up much later.

Thus, the change is simply to fix ARM64. A change is needed to x86 only
because the inherent assumptions in cma_hugetlb_reserve() have changed.
