Memory hotplug can fail for some combinations of RAM and maxmem when DDW is enabled in the presence of devices like nec-usb-xhci. DDW depends on maximum addressable memory returned by guest and this value is currently being calculated wrongly by the guest kernel routine memory_hotplug_max(). While there is an attempt to fix the guest kernel, this patch works around the problem within QEMU itself. memory_hotplug_max() routine in the guest kernel arrives at max addressable memory by multiplying lmb-size with the lmb-count obtained from ibm,dynamic-memory property. There are two assumptions here: - All LMBs are part of ibm,dynamic memory: This is not true for PowerKVM where only hot-pluggable LMBs are present in this property. - The memory area comprising of RAM and hotplug region is contiguous: This needn't be true always for PowerKVM as there can be gap between boot time RAM and hotplug region. To work around this guest kernel bug, ensure that ibm,dynamic-memory has information about all the LMBs (RMA, boot-time LMBs, future hotpluggable LMBs, and dummy LMBs to cover the gap between RAM and hotpluggable region). RMA is represented separately by memory@0 node. Hence mark RMA LMBs and also the LMBs for the gap b/n RAM and hotpluggable region as reserved and as having no valid DRC so that these LMBs are not considered by the guest.
