I had the same idea but discarded it because it seemed to uglify the add_memory() interface (passing yet another parameter only relevant for driver managed memory). Maybe we really want a new one, because I like that idea: /* * Add special, driver-managed memory to the system as system ram. * The resource_name is expected to have the name format "System RAM * ($DRIVER)", so user space (esp. kexec-tools)" can special-case it. * * For this memory, no entries in /sys/firmware/memmap are created, * as this memory won't be part of the raw firmware-provided memory map * e.g., after a reboot. Also, the created memory resource is flagged * with IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED, so in-kernel users can special- * case this memory (e.g., not place kexec images onto it). */ int add_memory_driver_managed(int nid, u64 start, u64 size, const char *resource_name); If we'd ever have to special case it even more in the kernel, we could allow to specify further resource flags. While passing the driver name instead of the resource_name would be an option, this way we don't have to hand craft new resource strings for added memory resources. Thoughts? --=20 Thanks, David / dhildenb
