      Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem() · 72a7fe39
      Bernhard Walle 提交于
      This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
      BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
      between crashkernel area and already used memory.
      
      This patch:
      
      Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
      If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
      has been reserved in the past.  This is to avoid conflicts.
      
      Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
      inside reserve_bootmem_core().

      x86: fix cpu_to_node references · 98c9e27a
      Mike Travis 提交于
      In x86_64 and i386 architectures most arrays that are sized using
      NR_CPUS lay in local memory on node 0.  Not only will most (99%?) of the
      systems not use all the slots in these arrays, particularly when NR_CPUS
      is increased to accommodate future very high cpu count systems, but a
      number of cache lines are passed unnecessarily on the system bus when
      these arrays are referenced by cpus on other nodes.
      
      Typically, the values in these arrays are referenced by the cpu
      accessing it's own values, though when passing IPI interrupts, the cpu
      does access the data relevant to the targeted cpu/node.  Of course, if
      the referencing cpu is not on node 0, then the reference will still
      require cross node exchanges of cache lines.  A common use of this is
      for an interrupt service routine to pass the interrupt to other cpus
      local to that node.
      
      Ideally, all the elements in these arrays should be moved to the per_cpu
      data area.  In some cases (such as x86_cpu_to_apicid) the array is
      referenced before the per_cpu data areas are setup.  In this case, a
      static array is declared in the __initdata area and initialized by the
      booting cpu (BSP).  The values are then moved to the per_cpu area after
      it is initialized and the original static array is freed with the rest
      of the __initdata.
      
      This patch:
      
      Fix four instances where cpu_to_node is referenced by array instead of
      via the cpu_to_node macro.  This is preparation to moving it to the
      per_cpu data area.

      [PATCH] x86-64: x86_64 hot-add memory srat.c fix · 926fafeb
      keith mannthey 提交于
        This patch corrects the logic used in srat.c to figure out what
      parsing what action to take when registering hot-add areas.  Hot-add
      areas should only be added to the node information for the
      MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE case.  When booting MEMORY_HOTPLUG_SPARSE hot-add
      areas on everything but the last node are getting include in the node
      data and during kernel boot the pages are setup then the kernel dies
      when the pages are used. This patch fixes this issue.

      [PATCH] Allow an arch to expand node boundaries · fb01439c
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      Arch-independent zone-sizing determines the size of a node
      (pgdat->node_spanned_pages) based on the physical memory that was
      registered by the architecture.  However, when
      CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE is set, the architecture expects that the
      spanned_pages will be much larger and that mem_map will be allocated that
      is used lated on memory hot-add.
      
      This patch allows an architecture that sets CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE
      to call push_node_boundaries() which will set the node beginning and end to
      at *least* the requested boundary.

      [PATCH] x86_64: Handle empty node zero · 0d015324
      Daniel Yeisley 提交于
      From: Daniel Yeisley <dan.yeisley@unisys.com>
      
      It is possible to boot a Unisys ES7000 with CPUs from multiple cells, and not
      also include the memory from those cells.  This can create a scenario where
      node 0 has cpus, but no associated memory.  The system will boot fine in a
      configuration where node 0 has memory, but nodes 2 and 3 do not.
      
      [AK: I rechecked the code and generic code seems to indeed handle that already.
      Dan's original patch had a change for mm/slab.c that seems to be already in now.]

      This fixes some boot failures on Dell and Unisys systems with memory
      hotadd added.
      
       - Set hotadd_percent to 0 by default.  This means anybody using hotadd
         memory needs to specify the value on the command line.  That's
         because there are lots of Intel boxes which have a bogus hotplug area
         in their SRAT and they would waste a lot of memory before.
       - Fix calculation of how much memory to use when the hotplug area
         exceeds hotadd_percent

      [PATCH] x86_64: Handle empty PXMs that only contain hotplug memory · a8062231
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      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.

      [PATCH] x86_64: Reserve SRAT hotadd memory on x86-64 · 68a3a7fe
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      From: Keith Mannthey, Andi Kleen
      
      Implement memory hotadd without sparsemem. The memory in the SRAT
      hotadd area is just preserved instead and can be activated later.
      
      There are a few restrictions:
      - Only one continuous hotadd area allowed per node
      
      The main problem is dealing with the many buggy SRAT tables
      that are out there. The strategy here is to reject anything
      suspicious.
      
      Originally from Keith Mannthey, with several hacks and changes by AK
      and also contributions from Andrew Morton
      
      [ TBD: Problems pointed out by KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com>:
      
       1) Goto's rebuild_zonelist patch will not work if CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n.
      
          Rebuilding zonelist is necessary when the system has just memory <
          4G at boot, and hot add memory > 4G.  because x86_64 has DMA32,
          ZONE_NORAML is not included into zonelist at boot time if system
          doesn't have memory >4G at boot.
      
          [AK: should just force the higher zones at boot time when SRAT tells us]
      
       2) zone and node's spanned_pages and present_pages are not incremented.
          They should be.
      
          For example, our server (ia64/Fujitsu PrimeQuest) can equip memory
          from 4G to 1T(maybe 2T in future), and SRAT will *always* say we have
          possible 1T +memory.  (Microsoft requires "write all possible memory
          in SRAT") When we reserve memmap for possible 1T memory, Linux will
          not work well in +minimum 4G configuraion ;)
