[PATCH v10 01/13] mm/sparsemem: Introduce struct mem_section_usage

Dan Williams
2019-06-19T06:06:00Z

Towards enabling memory hotplug to track partial population of a
section, introduce 'struct mem_section_usage'.

A pointer to a 'struct mem_section_usage' instance replaces the existing
pointer to a 'pageblock_flags' bitmap. Effectively it adds one more
'unsigned long' beyond the 'pageblock_flags' (usemap) allocation to
house a new 'subsection_map' bitmap. The new bitmap enables the memory
hot{plug,remove} implementation to act on incremental sub-divisions of a
section.

SUBSECTION_SHIFT is defined as global constant instead of
per-architecture value like SECTION_SIZE_BITS in order to allow
cross-arch compatibility of subsection users. Specifically a common
subsection size allows for the possibility that persistent memory
namespace configurations be made compatible across architectures.

The primary motivation for this functionality is to support platforms
that mix "System RAM" and "Persistent Memory" within a single section,
or multiple PMEM ranges with different mapping lifetimes within a single
section. The section restriction for hotplug has caused an ongoing saga
of hacks and bugs for devm_memremap_pages() users.

Beyond the fixups to teach existing paths how to retrieve the 'usemap'
from a section, and updates to usemap allocation path, there are no
expected behavior changes.
