Right, request_mem_region() and add_memory_driver_managed() are - and were - called with the exact same range. That would have been clearer if the patch would simply use range.start and range_len(&range) for both calls (similar in the original code). So, also the release calls have to use the same range.

But now I am wondering if the parent remaining > unreleased is deliberate even on CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE=y. Interesting, I can only tell that virtio-mem expects that remove_memory() won't remove the parent resource (which is !BUSY). So it relies on the existing functionality. I do wonder how walk_system_ram_range() behaves if both the parent and the child are BUSY. Looking at it, I think it will detect the parent and skip to the next range (without visiting the child) - which is not what we want. We could set the parent to BUSY just before doing the release_mem_region() call, but that feels like a hack. Maybe it's just easier to keep dax_kmem_res around ...

I didn't immediately see a way to meaningfully break up that patch without some dead-code steps in the conversion, but I'll take another run at it.

I notice that you've taught register_memory_resource() a IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED special case. Lets just make the assumption of add_memory_driver_managed() that it is the driver's responsibility to mark the range busy before calling, and the driver's responsibility to release the region. I.e. validate (rather than request) that the range is busy in register_memory_resource(), and teach release_memory_resource() to skip releasing the region when the memory is marked driver managed. That would let dax_kmem drop its manipulation of the 'busy' flag which is a layering violation no matter how many comments we put around it.

I'm afraid I don't get your point. For virtio-mem: Before: 1. Create virtio0 container resource 2. (somewhen in the future) add_memory_driver_managed() - Create resource (System RAM (virtio_mem)), marking it busy/driver managed After: 1. Create virtio0 container resource 2. (somewhen in the future) Create resource (System RAM (virtio_mem)), marking it busy/driver managed 3. add_memory_driver_managed() Not helpful or simpler IMHO. > >> The assumption is that anything that's IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM >> and IORESOUCE_BUSY is currently added to the system as system RAM (e.g., >> after add_memory() and friends, or during boot). >> >> I do agree that manually clearing the busy flag is ugly.

I don't think we have to care about races here. The "BUSY" checks is really just a check for leftovers, e.g., after kexec or after driver reloading. If somebody else would try to concurrently add System RAM /something else within the range of your device, something else, very weird, would be going on (let's call it a BUG, just like if somebody would be removing system RAM in your device range ...). For example, in case of virtio-mem, when you unload the driver, it cannot remove the "virtio0" resource in case some system ram in the range is still plugged (busy). So when reloading the driver, it would try to re-create the virtio0 resource, detect that some system ram in the range is still BUSY, and fail gracefully. This is how it works and how it's expected to work - at least for virtio-mem. I assume something similar can be observed with kmem, when trying to reload the driver or similar - but races shouldn't be relevant here.
