Subject: [PATCH v22 10/10] firmware: arm_rmm: hotplug: Skip memory added to ZONE_MOVABLE
Date: Fri, 2 Oct 2026 07:15:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261002061507.1600269-11-suzuki.poulose@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261002061507.1600269-1-suzuki.poulose@arm.com>
If the hotadded memory is in ZONE_MOVABLE, we could allow that to proceed
without the RMM having fine grained tracking, as we won't allocate pages
from there for guest-memfd or kernel allocation

Changes since v20:
- Use is_zone_movable_page() and only check the start_pfn
