The corresponding functions for cpu hotplug are get/put_online_cpus() and cpu_hotplug_begin/done() for cpu hotplug. The commit however missed to introduce functions that would serialize memory hotplug operations like they are done for cpu hotplug with cpu_maps_update_begin/done(). This basically leaves mem_hotplug.active_writer unprotected and allows concurrent writers to modify it, which may lead to problems as outlined by commit f931ab479dd2 ("mm: fix devm_memremap_pages crash, use mem_hotplug_{begin, done}"). That commit was extended again with commit b5d24fda9c3d ("mm, devm_memremap_pages: hold device_hotplug lock over mem_hotplug_{begin, done}") which serializes memory hotplug operations for some call sites by using the device_hotplug lock. In addition with commit 3fc21924100b ("mm: validate device_hotplug is held for memory hotplug") a sanity check was added to mem_hotplug_begin() to verify that the device_hotplug lock is held. This in turn triggers the following warning on s390: WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 1 at drivers/base/core.c:643 assert_held_device_hotplug+0x4a/0x58 Call Trace: assert_held_device_hotplug+0x40/0x58) mem_hotplug_begin+0x34/0xc8 add_memory_resource+0x7e/0x1f8 add_memory+0xda/0x130 add_memory_merged+0x15c/0x178 sclp_detect_standby_memory+0x2ae/0x2f8 do_one_initcall+0xa2/0x150 kernel_init_freeable+0x228/0x2d8 kernel_init+0x2a/0x140 kernel_thread_starter+0x6/0xc One possible fix would be to add more lock_device_hotplug() and unlock_device_hotplug() calls around each call site of mem_hotplug_begin/end(). But that would give the device_hotplug lock additional semantics it better should not have (serialize memory hotplug operations). Instead add a new memory_add_remove_lock which has the similar semantics like cpu_add_remove_lock for cpu hotplug. To keep things hopefully a bit easier the lock will be locked and unlocked within the mem_hotplug_begin/end() functions. Cc: Dan Williams Cc: Michal Hocko Cc: "Rafael J.
