On x86, the ACPI SRAT memory affinity structure can mark memory hotpluggable, allowing the kernel to possibly create movable nodes at boot. While power has no analog of this SRAT information, we can still create a movable memory node, post boot, by hotplugging all of the node's memory into ZONE_MOVABLE. We provide a way to describe the extents and numa associativity of such a node in the device tree, while deferring the memory addition to take place through hotplug. In v1, this patchset introduced a new dt compatible id to explicitly create a memoryless node at boot. Here, things have been simplified to be applicable regardless of the status of node hotplug on power. We still intend to enable hotadding a pgdat, but that's now untangled as a separate topic. v3: * Use Rob Herring's suggestions to improve the node availability check. * More verbose commit log in the patch enabling CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE. * Add a patch to restore top-down allocation the way x86 does. v2: * http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1473883618-14998-1-git-send-email-arbab@linux.vnet.ibm.com * Use the "status" property of standard dt memory nodes instead of introducing a new "ibm,hotplug-aperture" compatible id. * Remove the patch which explicitly creates a memoryless node. This set no longer has any bearing on whether the pgdat is created at boot or at the time of memory addition. v1: * http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1470680843-28702-1-git-send-email-arbab@linux.vnet.ibm.com Reza Arbab (5): drivers/of: introduce of_fdt_is_available() drivers/of: do not add memory for unavailable nodes powerpc/mm: allow memory hotplug into a memoryless node powerpc/mm: restore top-down allocation when using movable_node mm: enable CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE on powerpc Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt | 2 +- arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c | 16 ++++------------ drivers/of/fdt.c | 29 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- include/linux/of_fdt.h | 2 ++ mm/Kconfig | 2 +- 5 files changed, 34 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.1 -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
