PATCH 1/2 arm64/numa: fix pcpu_cpu_distance() to get correct CPU proximity

From: Yisheng Xie <[email protected]>

The pcpu_build_alloc_info() function group CPUs according to their proximity, by call callback function @cpu_distance_fn from different ARCHs.

For arm64 the callback of @cpu_distance_fn is

    pcpu_cpu_distance(from, to)
        -> node_distance(from, to)

The @from and @to for function node_distance() should be nid.

However, pcpu_cpu_distance() in arch/arm64/mm/numa.c just past the cpu id for @from and @to.

For this incorrect cpu proximity get from ARCH, it may cause each CPU in one group and make group_cnt out of bound:

setup_per_cpu_areas()
pcpu_embed_first_chunk()
pcpu_build_alloc_info()
in pcpu_build_alloc_info, since cpu_distance_fn will return REMOTE_DISTANCE if we pass cpu ids (0,1,2...), so cpu_distance_fn(cpu, tcpu) > LOCAL_DISTANCE will wrongly be ture.

This may results in triggering the BUG_ON(unit != nr_units) later:

PATCH 1/2 arm64/numa: fix pcpu_cpu_distance() to get correct CPU proximity

For arm64 the callback of @cpu_distance_fn is

For this incorrect cpu proximity get from ARCH, it may cause each CPU in one group and make group_cnt out of bound:

We trigger this bug with NR_CPUS=64 in the config instead of 4096 in defconfig for arm64, and we have 64 cpus in the system. I think that's why this bug wasn't triggered yet on other ARM64 NUMA platforms, this bug should generic for all ARM64 platforms.

PATCH 2/2 arm64/numa: fix incorrect print of end_pfn

In reply to Hanjun Guo

From: Hanjun Guo <[email protected]>

When booting on NUMA system with memory-less node (no memory dimm on this memory controller), the print for setup_node_data() is incorrect:

NUMA: Initmem setup node 2 [mem 0x00000000-0xffffffffffffffff]

It should be 0, not 0xffffffffffffffff as there is no memory on that node.

It should be 0, not 0xffffffffffffffff as there is no memory on that node.

Wouldn't it make more sense to print something useful, like "memory-less node"?

How is that more obvious than printing the string "memory-less node"? Is this data parsed by something?

PATCH 1/2 arm64/numa: fix pcpu_cpu_distance() to get correct CPU proximity

In reply to Hanjun Guo
Quoted 92 lines · Hanjun Guo

From: Yisheng Xie <[email protected]>

The pcpu_build_alloc_info() function group CPUs according to their proximity, by call callback function @cpu_distance_fn from different ARCHs.

For arm64 the callback of @cpu_distance_fn is

    pcpu_cpu_distance(from, to)
        -> node_distance(from, to)

The @from and @to for function node_distance() should be nid.

However, pcpu_cpu_distance() in arch/arm64/mm/numa.c just past the cpu id for @from and @to.

For this incorrect cpu proximity get from ARCH, it may cause each CPU in one group and make group_cnt out of bound:

setup_per_cpu_areas()
pcpu_embed_first_chunk()
pcpu_build_alloc_info()
in pcpu_build_alloc_info, since cpu_distance_fn will return REMOTE_DISTANCE if we pass cpu ids (0,1,2...), so cpu_distance_fn(cpu, tcpu) > LOCAL_DISTANCE will wrongly be ture.

This may results in triggering the BUG_ON(unit != nr_units) later:

Fix by getting CPUs proximity through its node. We only care about whether it is LOCAL_DISTANCE or not, for pcpu_build_alloc_info() only use this to group CPUs.

Fix by getting CPUs proximity through its node. We only care about whether it is LOCAL_DISTANCE or not, for pcpu_build_alloc_info() only use this to group CPUs.

PATCH 1/2 arm64/numa: fix pcpu_cpu_distance() to get correct CPU proximity

Quoted 94 lines · Will Deacon
Quoted 93 lines · Hanjun Guo

From: Yisheng Xie <[email protected]>

The pcpu_build_alloc_info() function group CPUs according to their proximity, by call callback function @cpu_distance_fn from different ARCHs.

For arm64 the callback of @cpu_distance_fn is

    pcpu_cpu_distance(from, to)
        -> node_distance(from, to)

The @from and @to for function node_distance() should be nid.

However, pcpu_cpu_distance() in arch/arm64/mm/numa.c just past the cpu id for @from and @to.

For this incorrect cpu proximity get from ARCH, it may cause each CPU in one group and make group_cnt out of bound:

setup_per_cpu_areas()
pcpu_embed_first_chunk()
pcpu_build_alloc_info()
in pcpu_build_alloc_info, since cpu_distance_fn will return REMOTE_DISTANCE if we pass cpu ids (0,1,2...), so cpu_distance_fn(cpu, tcpu) > LOCAL_DISTANCE will wrongly be ture.

This may results in triggering the BUG_ON(unit != nr_units) later:

Fix by getting CPUs proximity through its node. We only care about whether it is LOCAL_DISTANCE or not, for pcpu_build_alloc_info() only use this to group CPUs.

Why can't this be node_distance(early_cpu_to_node(from), early_cpu_to_node(to))?

It's really some coding style preference and the caller function is only care about it's LOCAL_DISTANCE or not, as we said in the commit message.

But using node_distance() will save few lines of code and no functional change, will update it.
