Subject: [Bug fix PATCH] ACPI,acpi_memhotplug: enable acpi_memory_info->enabled of memory device presented at boot-time
Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2013 15:54:55 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <514022BF.3080303@jp.fujitsu.com> (raw)
At http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=135769405622667&w=2 thread,
Toshi Kani mentioned as follows:
"I have a question about the change you made in commit 65479472 in
acpi_memhotplug.c. This change seems to require that
acpi_memory_enable_device() calls add_memory() to add all memory ranges
represented by memory device objects at boot-time, and keep the results
be used for hot-remove.
If I understand it right, this add_memory() call fails with EEXIST at
boot-time since all memory ranges should have been added from EFI memory
table (or e820) already. This results all memory ranges be marked as !
enabled & !failed. I think this means that we cannot hot-delete any
memory ranges presented at boot-time since acpi_memory_remove_memory()
only calls remove_memory() when the enabled flag is set. Is that
correct?"
Above mention is correct. Thus even if memory device supports hotplug,
memory presented at boot-time cannot be hot removed since the memory
device's acpi_memory_info->enabled is always 0.
This patch changes to set 1 to "acpi_memory_info->enabled" of memory
device presented at boot-time for hot removing the memory device.
