Subject: [PATCH v4 1/3] mm/hugetlb: Allow arch to override and call the weak function
Date: Fri, 28 Jul 2017 10:31:25 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170728050127.28338-1-aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
When running in guest mode ppc64 supports a different mechanism for hugetlb
allocation/reservation. The LPAR management application called HMC can
be used to reserve a set of hugepages and we pass the details of
reserved pages via device tree to the guest. (more details in
htab_dt_scan_hugepage_blocks()) . We do the memblock_reserve of the range
and later in the boot sequence, we add the reserved range to huge_boot_pages.
But to enable 16G hugetlb on baremetal config (when we are not running as guest)
we want to do memblock reservation during boot. Generic code already does this
