mm, memory_failure: Teach memory_failure() about dev_pagemap pages
mce: Uncorrected hardware memory error in user-access at af34214200
{1}[Hardware Error]: It has been corrected by h/w and requires no further action
mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged
{1}[Hardware Error]: event severity: corrected
Memory failure: 0xaf34214: reserved kernel page still referenced by 1 users
[..]
Memory failure: 0xaf34214: recovery action for reserved kernel page: Failed
mce: Memory error not recovered
In contrast to typical memory, dev_pagemap pages may be dax mapped. With
dax there is no possibility to map in another page dynamically since dax
establishes 1:1 physical address to file offset associations. Also
dev_pagemap pages associated with NVDIMM / persistent memory devices can
internal remap/repair addresses with poison. While memory_failure()
assumes that it can discard typical poisoned pages and keep them
unmapped indefinitely, dev_pagemap pages may be returned to service
after the error is cleared.
Teach memory_failure() to detect and handle MEMORY_DEVICE_HOST
dev_pagemap pages that have poison consumed by userspace. Mark the
memory as UC instead of unmapping it completely to allow ongoing access
via the device driver (nd_pmem). Later, nd_pmem will grow support for
marking the page back to WB when the error is cleared.
