[PATCH] to fix ACPI slit table access at runtime

[PATCH] to fix ACPI slit table access at runtime

[Kamble, Nitin A]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2696 bytes --]

Hi Keir,
  I was noticing that the current Xen code was not able to access the ACPI SLIT data (node to node distance) at runtime. And I found root cause of it being the acpi_slit pointer not being valid at runtime.
I have fixed the issue by saving the slit table data at boot time, and using the saved data for runtime access as follows.

Please accept or comment.
Thanks & Regards,
Nitin

Better would be to dynamically alloc_boot_pages(). Then also the patch would
be about two or three lines. The only disadvantage would be that then SLIT
parsing would be for 64-bit hypervisor only (since 32-bit Xen does not have
mappings for bootmem). I think we can live with that - I note that Linux
only does SLIT parsing for x86_64 too.

By the way, a separate question for Jan: I notice you added an
alloc_boot_pages() call in arch/x86/numa.c, and get a virtual address from
mfn_to_virt(). This is bogus for x86_32, so can we just stub out that
function for the 32-bit build: looks like the caller would then gracefully
fail? I wonder whether this could explain the crash that Ian Jackson
reported on one system with PAE Xen the other day.

Yes, quite possible. Although - specifically after his report - I ran
a 32-bit image on my only somewhat NUMA-ish system, and did not
see it die:

(XEN) SRAT: PXM 0 -> APIC 0 -> Node 0
(XEN) SRAT: PXM 0 -> APIC 1 -> Node 0
(XEN) SRAT: PXM 0 -> APIC 2 -> Node 0
(XEN) SRAT: PXM 0 -> APIC 3 -> Node 0
(XEN) SRAT: PXM 1 -> APIC 4 -> Node 1
(XEN) SRAT: PXM 1 -> APIC 5 -> Node 1
(XEN) SRAT: PXM 1 -> APIC 6 -> Node 1
(XEN) SRAT: PXM 1 -> APIC 7 -> Node 1
(XEN) SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 0-a0000
(XEN) SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 100000-80000000
(XEN) SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 80000000-d0000000
(XEN) SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 100000000-130000000
(XEN) NUMA: Allocated memnodemap from 2e37e000 - 2e380000
(XEN) NUMA: Using 8 for the hash shift.

All it took was the patch that's now c/s 20978. But indeed the
addresses printed suggest this cannot work properly, even if it
didn't crash.

Whether this indeed causes Ian's problems could be easily
clarified by him adding loglvl=all to see those two NUMA:
messages. What makes me think it may not is that CR2 was
zero in his log.

Removing the code for 32-bit altogether is certainly one option (in
that case I'd want to see _memnodemap to be reasonably
increased though, plus we should probably make an attempt to
reduce memnodemapsize again - the hash shift currently is unduly
small - and I have a patch for the original Linux code to do so).

All other options are likely indeed not worth it to make 32-bit
happy.

Given we agree the current situation is a bug, could you make up a patch
along the lines of what you prefer to see? Because my default action will be
simply to ifdef the code, as NUMA-on-i386 is not much a concern of mine.

Keir,
  If I understand you correctly, you would prefer to have x86_64 bit only solution, with dynamic allocation. I will change the patch accordingly and resend it.

That would be great, thanks. I think you should only have to modify
acpi_numa_slit_init() in your revised patch.

Dear all,

found the following warning during boot of current pv_ops kernel under
Xen 3.4.2, 2.6.18.8 Dom0 64Bit, Kernel is also 64 Bit:
