Subject: [PATCH 0/2] powerpc/pseries: Implemented indexed-count hotplug memory management
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2016 14:21:05 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19ab11fc-9771-1ad4-95d7-d26dd8f18184@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Indexed-count memory management allows addition and removal of contiguous
lmb blocks to be added and removed with a single command. When compared
to the series of calls previously required to manage contiguous blocks,
indexed-count decreases command frequency and complexity, consequently
preventing buffer overflow.
