The node setup code would try to allocate the node metadata in the node itself, but that fails if there is no memory in there. This can happen with memory hotplug when the hotplug area defines an so far empty node. Now use bootmem to try to allocate the mem_map in other nodes. And if it fails don't panic, but just ignore the node. To make this work I added a new __alloc_bootmem_nopanic function that does what its name implies. TBD should try to use nearby nodes here. Currently we just use any. It's hard to do it better because bootmem doesn't have proper fallback lists yet. Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Add a list_head to bootmem_data_t and make bootmems use it. bootmem list is sorted by node_boot_start. Only nodes against which init_bootmem() is called are linked to the list. (i386 allocates bootmem only from one node(0) not from all online nodes.) A summary: 1. for_each_online_pgdat() traverses all *online* nodes. 2. alloc_bootmem() allocates memory only from initialized-for-bootmem nodes.

The attached patch cleans up the way the bootmem allocator frees pages. A new function, __free_pages_bootmem(), is provided in mm/page_alloc.c that is called from mm/bootmem.c to turn pages over to the main allocator. All the bits of code to initialise pages (clearing PG_reserved and setting the page count) are moved to here. The checks on page validity are removed, on the assumption that the struct page arrays will have been prepared correctly.

Hitting BUG_ON() in __alloc_bootmem_core() when there is no free page available in the first node's memory. For the case of kdump on PPC64 (Power 4 machine), the captured kernel is used two memory regions - memory for TCE tables (tce-base and tce-size at top of RAM and reserved) and captured kernel memory region (crashk_base and crashk_size). Since we reserve the memory for the first node, we should be returning from __alloc_bootmem_core() to search for the next node (pg_dat). Currently, find_next_zero_bit() is returning the n^th bit (eidx) when there is no free page. Then, test_bit() is failed since we set 0xff only for the actual size initially (init_bootmem_core()) even though rounded up to one page for bdata->node_bootmem_map. We are hitting the BUG_ON after failing to enter second "for" loop.

Remove PageReserved() calls from core code by tightening VM_RESERVED handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality. PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page. All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount based freeing of Reserved pages. MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being deprecated. We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept). Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can be trivially removed. Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not. This still needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work). A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss). These writes to the struct page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems. There are a number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

This introduces a limit parameter to the core bootmem allocator; The new parameter indicates that physical memory allocated by the bootmem allocator should be within the requested limit. We also introduce alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit, alloc_bootmem_node_limit, alloc_bootmem_low_pages_node_limit apis, but alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit is the only api used for swiotlb. The existing alloc_bootmem_low_pages() api could instead have been changed and made to pass right limit to the core allocator. But that would make the patch more intrusive for 2.6.14, as other arches use alloc_bootmem_low_pages(). We may be done that post 2.6.14 as a cleanup. With this, swiotlb gets memory within 4G for both x86_64 and ia64 arches.

This leads to bootmem allocating first from node 0 instead of from the last node. This avoids swiotlb allocating on the last node, which doesn't really work on a machine with >4GB. Note: there is a better patch around from someone else that gets rid of the pgdat list completely. Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This patch retrieves the max_pfn being used by previous kernel and stores it in a safe location (saved_max_pfn) before it is overwritten due to user defined memory map. This pfn is used to make sure that user does not try to read the physical memory beyond saved_max_pfn.

Sparsemem abstracts the use of discontiguous mem_maps[]. This kind of mem_map[] is needed by discontiguous memory machines (like in the old CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM case) as well as memory hotplug systems. Sparsemem replaces DISCONTIGMEM when enabled, and it is hoped that it can eventually become a complete replacement. A significant advantage over DISCONTIGMEM is that it's completely separated from CONFIG_NUMA. When producing this patch, it became apparent in that NUMA and DISCONTIG are often confused. Another advantage is that sparse doesn't require each NUMA node's ranges to be contiguous. It can handle overlapping ranges between nodes with no problems, where DISCONTIGMEM currently throws away that memory. Sparsemem uses an array to provide different pfn_to_page() translations for each SECTION_SIZE area of physical memory. This is what allows the mem_map[] to be chopped up. In order to do quick pfn_to_page() operations, the section number of the page is encoded in page->flags. Part of the sparsemem infrastructure enables sharing of these bits more dynamically (at compile-time) between the page_zone() and sparsemem operations. However, on 32-bit architectures, the number of bits is quite limited, and may require growing the size of the page->flags type in certain conditions. Several things might force this to occur: a decrease in the SECTION_SIZE (if you want to hotplug smaller areas of memory), an increase in the physical address space, or an increase in the number of used page->flags. One thing to note is that, once sparsemem is present, the NUMA node information no longer needs to be stored in the page->flags. It might provide speed increases on certain platforms and will be stored there if there is room. But, if out of room, an alternate (theoretically slower) mechanism is used. This patch introduces CONFIG_FLATMEM. It is used in almost all cases where there used to be an #ifndef DISCONTIG, because SPARSEMEM and DISCONTIGMEM often have to compile out the same areas of code.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
