Subject: [PATCH 0 of 4] [RFC] hotplug memory: minor updates
Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2008 17:28:36 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <patchbomb.1206664116@localhost> (raw)
Hi all,
Here's a small set of patches for memory hotplug which I needed to get
the Xen balloon driver working.
1. add add_memory_resource(), which allow a caller to provide the
resource structure for memory being added,
2. add warnings when you try to add non-section-aligned and sized memory
since it has undesireable results when you do so, and
3. decrease the i386 PAE section size to 2^29 (=512MB), since 1G is a
bit too large for virtual memory ballooning
(4. don't steal all memory in paravirt_disable_iospace)
Still unresolved is how to prevent the user from onlining balloon
memory via sysfs, since that will almost certainly cause the kernel to
crash.
Thanks,
J
