While this is not always true. E.g in kdump kernel of x86_64, only low 1M is presented and locked down at very early stage of boot, so that this low 1M won't be added into buddy allocator to become managed pages of DMA zone. This exception will always cause page allocation failure if page is requested from DMA zone. ***Investigation: This failure happens since below commit merged into linus's tree. 1a6a9044b967 x86/setup: Remove CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW and reservelow= options 23721c8e92f7 x86/crash: Remove crash_reserve_low_1M() f1d4d47c5851 x86/setup: Always reserve the first 1M of RAM 7c321eb2b843 x86/kdump: Remove the backup region handling 6f599d84231f x86/kdump: Always reserve the low 1M when the crashkernel option is specified Before them, on x86_64, the low 640K area will be reused by kdump kernel. So in kdump kernel, the content of low 640K area is copied into a backup region for dumping before jumping into kdump. Then except of those firmware reserved region in [0, 640K], the left area will be added into buddy allocator to become available managed pages of DMA zone. However, after above commits applied, in kdump kernel of x86_64, the low 1M is reserved by memblock, but not released to buddy allocator. So any later page allocation requested from DMA zone will fail. At the beginning, if crashkernel is reserved, the low 1M need be locked down because AMD SME encrypts memory making the old backup region mechanims impossible when switching into kdump kernel. Later, it was also observed that there are BIOSes corrupting memory under 1M. To solve this, in commit f1d4d47c5851, the entire region of low 1M is always reserved after the real mode trampoline is allocated. Besides, recently, Intel engineer mentioned their TDX (Trusted domain extensions) which is under development in kernel also needs to lock down the low 1M. So we can't simply revert above commits to fix the page allocation failure from DMA zone as someone suggested. ***Solution: Currently, only DMA atomic pool and dma-kmalloc will initialize and request page allocation with GFP_DMA during bootup. So only initializ DMA atomic pool when DMA zone has available managed pages, otherwise just skip the initialization. For dma-kmalloc(), for the time being, let's mute the warning of allocation failure if requesting pages from DMA zone while no manged pages. Meanwhile, change code to use dma_alloc_xx/dma_map_xx API to replace kmalloc(GFP_DMA), or do not use GFP_DMA when calling kmalloc() if not necessary. Christoph is posting patches to fix those under drivers/scsi/. Finally, we can remove the need of dma-kmalloc() as people suggested. Changelog: v3->v4: - Split the old v3 into two separate patchset. The first two clean up/improvement patches in v3 have been sent out in a independent patchset. The fixes patchs are adapted and sent in this patchset. - Do not change dma-kmalloc(), mute the warning of allocation failure instead if it's requesting page from DMA zone which has no managed pages. v2-Resend -> v3: - Re-implement has_managed_dma() according to David's suggestion. - Add Fixes tag and cc stable. v2->v2 RESEND: - John pinged to push the repost of this patchset. So fix one typo of suject of patch 3/5; Fix a building error caused by mix declaration in patch 5/5. Both of them are found by John from his testing. - Rewrite cover letter to add more information. v1->v2: Change to check if managed DMA zone exists. If DMA zone has managed pages, go further to request page from DMA zone to initialize. Otherwise, just skip to initialize stuffs which need pages from DMA zone. v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211213122712.23805-1-bhe@redhat.com/T/#u V2 RESEND post: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211207030750.30824-1-bhe@redhat.com/T/#u v2 post: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210810094835.13402-1-bhe@redhat.com/T/#u v1 post: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210624052010.5676-1-bhe@redhat.com/T/#u Baoquan He (3): mm_zone: add function to check if managed dma zone exists dma/pool: create dma atomic pool only if dma zone has managed pages mm/page_alloc.c: do not warn allocation failure on zone DMA if no managed pages include/linux/mmzone.h | 9 +++++++++ kernel/dma/pool.c | 4 ++-- mm/page_alloc.c | 18 +++++++++++++++++- 3 files changed, 28 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) Tested-by: John Donnelly
