[PATCH] xen/balloon: Mark unallocated host memory as UNUSABLE

From: Boris Ostrovsky
Date: Tue Dec 12 2017 - 18:33:41 EST


Commit f5775e0b6116 ("x86/xen: discard RAM regions above the maximum
reservation") left host memory not assigned to dom0 as available for
memory hotplug.

Unfortunately this also meant that those regions could be used by
others. Specifically, commit fa564ad96366 ("x86/PCI: Enable a 64bit BAR
on AMD Family 15h (Models 00-1f, 30-3f, 60-7f)") may try to map those
addresses as MMIO.

To prevent this mark unallocated host memory as E820_TYPE_UNUSABLE (thus
effectively reverting f5775e0b6116) and keep track of that region as
a hostmem resource that can be used for the hotplug.

I don't see /proc/meminfo reporting the hotplugged memory (although
internal data such as max_pfn is updated properly). Need to look at
hotplug code some more. But then I didn't see meminfo changing with
existing code either.
