2014-10-10memory-hotplug: add sysfs valid_zones attributeZhang Zhen1-0/+42
Currently memory-hotplug has two limits: 1. If the memory block is in ZONE_NORMAL, you can change it to ZONE_MOVABLE, but this memory block must be adjacent to ZONE_MOVABLE. 2. If the memory block is in ZONE_MOVABLE, you can change it to ZONE_NORMAL, but this memory block must be adjacent to ZONE_NORMAL. With this patch, we can easy to know a memory block can be onlined to which zone, and don't need to know the above two limits. Updated the related Documentation.

2014-08-07mem-hotplug: avoid illegal state prefixed with legal state when changing ↵Tang Chen1-4/+4
state of memory_block We use the following command to online a memory_block: echo online|online_kernel|online_movable > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state But, if we do the following: echo online_fhsjkghfkd > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state the block will also be onlined. This is because the following code in store_mem_state() does not compare the whole string, but only the prefix of the string. store_mem_state() { ...... 328 if (!strncmp(buf, "online_kernel", min_t(int, count, 13))) Here, only compare the first 13 letters of the string. If we give "online_kernelXXXXXX", it will be recognized as online_kernel, which is incorrect. 329 online_type = ONLINE_KERNEL; 330 else if (!strncmp(buf, "online_movable", min_t(int, count, 14))) We have the same problem here, 331 online_type = ONLINE_MOVABLE; 332 else if (!strncmp(buf, "online", min_t(int, count, 6))) here, (Here is more problematic. If we give online_movalbe, which is a typo of online_movable, it will be recognized as online without noticing the author.) 333 online_type = ONLINE_KEEP; 334 else if (!strncmp(buf, "offline", min_t(int, count, 7))) and here. 335 online_type = -1; 336 else { 337 ret = -EINVAL; 338 goto err; 339 } ...... } This patch fixes this problem by using sysfs_streq() to compare the whole string.

2014-06-05memory-hotplug: update documentation to hide information about SECTIONS and ↵Li Zhong1-12/+0
remove end_phys_index Seems we all agree that information about SECTION, e.g. section size, sections per memory block should be kept as kernel internals, and not exposed to userspace. This patch updates Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt to refer to memory blocks instead of memory sections where appropriate and added a paragraph to explain that memory blocks are made of memory sections. The documentation update is mostly provided by Nathan. Also, as end_phys_index in code is actually not the end section id, but the end memory block id, which should always be the same as phys_index. So it is removed here.

2013-08-30driver core / ACPI: Avoid device hot remove locking issuesRafael J. Wysocki1-1/+3
device_hotplug_lock is held around the acpi_bus_trim() call in acpi_scan_hot_remove() which generally removes devices (it removes ACPI device objects at least, but it may also remove "physical" device objects through .detach() callbacks of ACPI scan handlers). Thus, potentially, device sysfs attributes are removed under that lock and to remove those attributes it is necessary to hold the s_active references of their directory entries for writing. On the other hand, the execution of a .show() or .store() callback from a sysfs attribute is carried out with that attribute's s_active reference held for reading. Consequently, if any device sysfs attribute that may be removed from within acpi_scan_hot_remove() through acpi_bus_trim() has a .store() or .show() callback which acquires device_hotplug_lock, the execution of that callback may deadlock with the removal of the attribute. [Unfortunately, the "online" device attribute of CPUs and memory blocks is one of them.] To avoid such deadlocks, make all of the sysfs attribute callbacks that need to lock device hotplug, for example store_online(), use a special function, lock_device_hotplug_sysfs(), to lock device hotplug and return the result of that function immediately if it is not zero. This will cause the s_active reference of the directory entry in question to be released and the syscall to be restarted if device_hotplug_lock cannot be acquired. [show_online() actually doesn't need to lock device hotplug, but it is useful to serialize it with respect to device_offline() and device_online() for the same device (in case user space attempts to run them concurrently) which can be done with the help of device_lock().] Reported-by: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@jp.fujitsu.com> Reported-and-tested-by: Gu Zheng <guz.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Suggested-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2013-08-29drivers/base/memory.c: fix show_mem_removable() to handle missing sectionsRuss Anderson1-0/+2
"cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/removable" crashed the system. The problem is that show_mem_removable() is passing a bad pfn to is_mem_section_removable(), which causes if (!node_online(page_to_nid(page))) to blow up. Why is it passing in a bad pfn? The reason is that show_mem_removable() will loop sections_per_block times. sections_per_block is 16, but mem->section_count is 8, indicating holes in this memory block. Checking that the memory section is present before checking to see if the memory section is removable fixes the problem. harp5-sys:~ # cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/removable 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffea00c3200000 IP: [<ffffffff81117ed1>] is_pageblock_removable_nolock+0x1/0x90 PGD 83ffd4067 PUD 37bdfce067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: autofs4 binfmt_misc rdma_ucm rdma_cm iw_cm ib_addr ib_srp scsi_transport_srp scsi_tgt ib_ipoib ib_cm ib_uverbs ib_umad iw_cxgb3 cxgb3 mdio mlx4_en mlx4_ib ib_sa mlx4_core ib_mthca ib_mad ib_core fuse nls_iso8859_1 nls_cp437 vfat fat joydev loop hid_generic usbhid hid hwperf(O) numatools(O) dm_mod iTCO_wdt ipv6 iTCO_vendor_support igb i2c_i801 ioatdma i2c_algo_bit ehci_pci pcspkr lpc_ich i2c_core ehci_hcd ptp sg mfd_core dca rtc_cmos pps_core mperf button xhci_hcd sd_mod crc_t10dif usbcore usb_common scsi_dh_emc scsi_dh_hp_sw scsi_dh_alua scsi_dh_rdac scsi_dh gru(O) xvma(O) xfs crc32c libcrc32c thermal sata_nv processor piix mptsas mptscsih scsi_transport_sas mptbase megaraid_sas fan thermal_sys hwmon ext3 jbd ata_piix ahci libahci libata scsi_mod CPU: 4 PID: 5991 Comm: cat Tainted: G O 3.11.0-rc5-rja-uv+ #10 Hardware name: SGI UV2000/ROMLEY, BIOS SGI UV 2000/3000 series BIOS 01/15/2013 task: ffff88081f034580 ti: ffff880820022000 task.ti: ffff880820022000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81117ed1>] [<ffffffff81117ed1>] is_pageblock_removable_nolock+0x1/0x90 RSP: 0018:ffff880820023df8 EFLAGS: 00010287 RAX: 0000000000040000 RBX: ffffea00c3200000 RCX: 0000000000000004 RDX: ffffea00c30b0000 RSI: 00000000001c0000 RDI: ffffea00c3200000 RBP: ffff880820023e38 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000001 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000001 R12: ffffea00c33c0000 R13: 0000160000000000 R14: 6db6db6db6db6db7 R15: 0000000000000001 FS: 00007ffff7fb2700(0000) GS:ffff88083fc80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: ffffea00c3200000 CR3: 000000081b954000 CR4: 00000000000407e0 Call Trace: show_mem_removable+0x41/0x70 dev_attr_show+0x2a/0x60 sysfs_read_file+0xf7/0x1c0 vfs_read+0xc8/0x130 SyS_read+0x5d/0xa0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by: Russ Anderson <rja@sgi.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: "Rafael J.

2013-08-21drivers: base: use standard device online/offline for state changeSeth Jennings1-72/+55
There are two ways to set the online/offline state for a memory block: echo 0|1 > online and echo online|online_kernel|online_movable|offline > state. The state attribute can online a memory block with extra data, the "online type", where the online attribute uses a default online type of ONLINE_KEEP, same as echo online > state. Currently there is a state_mutex that provides consistency between the memory block state and the underlying memory. The problem is that this code does a lot of things that the common device layer can do for us, such as the serialization of the online/offline handlers using the device lock, setting the dev->offline field, and calling kobject_uevent(). This patch refactors the online/offline code to allow the common device_[online|offline] functions to be used. The result is a simpler and more common code path for the two state setting mechanisms. It also removes the state_mutex from the struct memory_block as the memory block device lock provides the state consistency. No functional change is intended by this patch.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki: "This time the total number of ACPI commits is slightly greater than the number of cpufreq commits, but Viresh Kumar (who works on cpufreq) remains the most active patch submitter. To me, the most significant change is the addition of offline/online device operations to the driver core (with the Greg's blessing) and the related modifications of the ACPI core hotplug code. Next are the freezer updates from Colin Cross that should make the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight. We also have a couple of regression fixes, a number of fixes for issues that have not been identified as regressions, two new drivers and a bunch of cleanups all over. Highlights: - Hotplug changes to support graceful hot-removal failures. It sometimes is necessary to fail device hot-removal operations gracefully if they cannot be carried out completely. For example, if memory from a memory module being hot-removed has been allocated for the kernel's own use and cannot be moved elsewhere, it's desirable to fail the hot-removal operation in a graceful way rather than to crash the kernel, but currenty a success or a kernel crash are the only possible outcomes of an attempted memory hot-removal. Needless to say, that is not a very attractive alternative and it had to be addressed. However, in order to make it work for memory, I first had to make it work for CPUs and for this purpose I needed to modify the ACPI processor driver. It's been split into two parts, a resident one handling the low-level initialization/cleanup and a modular one playing the actual driver's role (but it binds to the CPU system device objects rather than to the ACPI device objects representing processors). That's been sort of like a live brain surgery on a patient who's riding a bike. So this is a little scary, but since we found and fixed a couple of regressions it caused to happen during the early linux-next testing (a month ago), nobody has complained. As a bonus we remove some duplicated ACPI hotplug code, because the ACPI-based CPU hotplug is now going to use the common ACPI hotplug code. - Lighter weight freezing of tasks. These changes from Colin Cross and Mandeep Singh Baines are targeted at making the freezing of tasks a bit less heavy weight operation. They reduce the number of tasks woken up every time during the freezing, by using the observation that the freezer simply doesn't need to wake up some of them and wait for them all to call refrigerator(). The time needed for the freezer to decide to report a failure is reduced too. Also reintroduced is the check causing a lockdep warining to trigger when try_to_freeze() is called with locks held (which is generally unsafe and shouldn't happen). - cpufreq updates First off, a commit from Srivatsa S Bhat fixes a resume regression introduced during the 3.10 cycle causing some cpufreq sysfs attributes to return wrong values to user space after resume. The fix is kind of fresh, but also it's pretty obvious once Srivatsa has identified the root cause. Second, we have a new freqdomain_cpus sysfs attribute for the acpi-cpufreq driver to provide information previously available via related_cpus. From Lan Tianyu. Finally, we fix a number of issues, mostly related to the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and cpufreq Kconfig options and clean up some code. The majority of changes from Viresh Kumar with bits from Jacob Shin, Heiko Stübner, Xiaoguang Chen, Ezequiel Garcia, Arnd Bergmann, and Tang Yuantian. - ACPICA update A usual bunch of updates from the ACPICA upstream. During the 3.4 cycle we introduced support for ACPI 5 extended sleep registers, but they are only supposed to be used if the HW-reduced mode bit is set in the FADT flags and the code attempted to use them without checking that bit. That caused suspend/resume regressions to happen on some systems. Fix from Lv Zheng causes those registers to be used only if the HW-reduced mode bit is set. Apart from this some other ACPICA bugs are fixed and code cleanups are made by Bob Moore, Tomasz Nowicki, Lv Zheng, Chao Guan, and Zhang Rui. - cpuidle updates New driver for Xilinx Zynq processors is added by Michal Simek. Multidriver support simplification, addition of some missing kerneldoc comments and Kconfig-related fixes come from Daniel Lezcano. - ACPI power management updates Changes to make suspend/resume work correctly in Xen guests from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk, sparse warning fix from Fengguang Wu and cleanups and fixes of the ACPI device power state selection routine. - ACPI documentation updates Some previously missing pieces of ACPI documentation are added by Lv Zheng and Aaron Lu (hopefully, that will help people to uderstand how the ACPI subsystem works) and one outdated doc is updated by Hanjun Guo. - Assorted ACPI updates We finally nailed down the IA-64 issue that was the reason for reverting commit 9f29ab11ddbf ("ACPI / scan: do not match drivers against objects having scan handlers"), so we can fix it and move the ACPI scan handler check added to the ACPI video driver back to the core. A mechanism for adding CMOS RTC address space handlers is introduced by Lan Tianyu to allow some EC-related breakage to be fixed on some systems. A spec-compliant implementation of acpi_os_get_timer() is added by Mika Westerberg. The evaluation of _STA is added to do_acpi_find_child() to avoid situations in which a pointer to a disabled device object is returned instead of an enabled one with the same _ADR value. From Jeff Wu. Intel BayTrail PCH (Platform Controller Hub) support is added to the ACPI driver for Intel Low-Power Subsystems (LPSS) and that driver is modified to work around a couple of known BIOS issues. Changes from Mika Westerberg and Heikki Krogerus. The EC driver is fixed by Vasiliy Kulikov to use get_user() and put_user() instead of dereferencing user space pointers blindly. Code cleanups are made by Bjorn Helgaas, Nicholas Mazzuca and Toshi Kani. - Assorted power management updates The "runtime idle" helper routine is changed to take the return values of the callbacks executed by it into account and to call rpm_suspend() if they return 0, which allows us to reduce the overall code bloat a bit (by dropping some code that's not necessary any more after that modification). The runtime PM documentation is updated by Alan Stern (to reflect the "runtime idle" behavior change). New trace points for PM QoS are added by Sahara (<keun-o.park@windriver.com>). PM QoS documentation is updated by Lan Tianyu. Code cleanups are made and minor issues are addressed by Bernie Thompson, Bjorn Helgaas, Julius Werner, and Shuah Khan. - devfreq updates New driver for the Exynos5-bus device from Abhilash Kesavan. Minor cleanups, fixes and MAINTAINERS update from MyungJoo Ham, Abhilash Kesavan, Paul Bolle, Rajagopal Venkat, and Wei Yongjun. - OMAP power management updates Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) SmartReflex voltage control driver updates from Andrii Tseglytskyi and Nishanth Menon." * tag 'pm+acpi-3.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (162 commits) cpufreq: Fix cpufreq regression after suspend/resume ACPI / PM: Fix possible NULL pointer deref in acpi_pm_device_sleep_state() PM / Sleep: Warn about system time after resume with pm_trace cpufreq: don't leave stale policy pointer in cdbs->cur_policy acpi-cpufreq: Add new sysfs attribute freqdomain_cpus cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized ACPI: implement acpi_os_get_timer() according the spec ACPI / EC: Add HP Folio 13 to ec_dmi_table in order to skip DSDT scan ACPI: Add CMOS RTC Operation Region handler support ACPI / processor: Drop unused variable from processor_perflib.c cpufreq: tegra: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: s3c64xx: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: omap: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: imx6q: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: exynos: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: dbx500: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: davinci: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: arm-big-little: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: powernow-k8: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases cpufreq: pcc: call CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notfier in error cases ...
2013-06-06drivers/base: Use attribute groups to create sysfs memory filesNathan Fontenot1-81/+62
Update the sysfs memory code to create/delete files at the time of device and subsystem registration. The current code creates files in the root memory directory explicitly through the use of init_* routines. The files for each memory block are created and deleted explicitly using the mem_[create|delete]_simple_file macros. This patch creates attribute groups for the memory root files and files in each memory block directory so that they are created and deleted implicitly at subsys and device register and unregister time. This did necessitate moving the register_memory() updating it to set the dev.groups field.

Introduce .offline() and .online() callbacks for memory_subsys that will allow the generic device_offline() and device_online() to be used with device objects representing memory blocks. That, in turn, allows the ACPI subsystem to use device_offline() to put removable memory blocks offline, if possible, before removing memory modules holding them. The 'online' sysfs attribute of memory block devices will attempt to put them offline if 0 is written to it and will attempt to apply the previously used online type when onlining them (i.e. when 1 is written to it).

__remove_pages() is only necessary for CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. PowerPC pseries will return -EOPNOTSUPP if unsupported. Adding an #ifdef causes several other functions it depends on to also become unnecessary, which saves in .text when disabled (it's disabled in most defconfigs besides powerpc, including x86). remove_memory_block() becomes static since it is not referenced outside of drivers/base/memory.c.

removing memory We remove the memory like this: 1. lock memory hotplug 2. offline a memory block 3. unlock memory hotplug 4. repeat 1-3 to offline all memory blocks 5. lock memory hotplug 6. remove memory(TODO) 7. unlock memory hotplug All memory blocks must be offlined before removing memory. But we don't hold the lock in the whole operation. So we should check whether all memory blocks are offlined before step6. Otherwise, kernel maybe panicked. Offlining a memory block and removing a memory device can be two different operations. Users can just offline some memory blocks without removing the memory device. For this purpose, the kernel has held lock_memory_hotplug() in __offline_pages(). To reuse the code for memory hot-remove, we repeat step 1-3 to offline all the memory blocks, repeatedly lock and unlock memory hotplug, but not hold the memory hotplug lock in the whole operation.

2012-12-12mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable memory and portion memoryLai Jiangshan1-11/+22
Add online_movable and online_kernel for logic memory hotplug. This is the dynamic version of "movablecore" & "kernelcore". We have the same reason to introduce it as to introduce "movablecore" & "kernelcore". It has the same motive as "movablecore" & "kernelcore", but it is dynamic/running-time: o We can configure memory as kernelcore or movablecore after boot. Userspace workload is increased, we need more hugepage, we can't use "online_movable" to add memory and allow the system use more THP(transparent-huge-page), vice-verse when kernel workload is increase. Also help for virtualization to dynamic configure host/guest's memory, to save/(reduce waste) memory. Memory capacity on Demand o When a new node is physically online after boot, we need to use "online_movable" or "online_kernel" to configure/portion it as we expected when we logic-online it. This configuration also helps for physically-memory-migrate. o all benefit as the same as existed "movablecore" & "kernelcore". o Preparing for movable-node, which is very important for power-saving, hardware partitioning and high-available-system(hardware fault management). (Note, we don't introduce movable-node here.) Action behavior: When a memoryblock/memorysection is onlined by "online_movable", the kernel will not have directly reference to the page of the memoryblock, thus we can remove that memory any time when needed. When it is online by "online_kernel", the kernel can use it. When it is online by "online", the zone type doesn't changed. Current constraints: Only the memoryblock which is adjacent to the ZONE_MOVABLE can be online from ZONE_NORMAL to ZONE_MOVABLE.

warning When calling remove_memory_block(), the function shows following message at device_release(). "Device 'memory528' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed." The reason is memory_block's device struct does not have a release() function. So the patch registers memory_block_release() to the device's release() function for suppressing the warning message. Additionally, the patch moves kfree(mem) into the release function since the release function is prepared as a means to free a memory_block struct.

2012-10-09memory-hotplug: update memory block's state and notify userspaceWen Congyang1-4/+27
remove_memory() will be called when hot removing a memory device. But even if offlining memory, we cannot notice it. So the patch updates the memory block's state and sends notification to userspace. Additionally, the memory device may contain more than one memory block. If the memory block has been offlined, __offline_pages() will fail. So we should try to offline one memory block at a time. Thus remove_memory() also check each memory block's state. So there is no need to check the memory block's state before calling remove_memory().

remove_memory() is called in two cases: 1. echo offline >/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXX/state 2. hot remove a memory device In the 1st case, the memory block's state is changed and the notification that memory block's state changed is sent to userland after calling remove_memory(). So user can notice memory block is changed. But in the 2nd case, the memory block's state is not changed and the notification is not also sent to userspcae even if calling remove_memory(). So user cannot notice memory block is changed. For adding the notification at memory hot remove, the patch just prepare as follows: 1st case uses offline_pages() for offlining memory. 2nd case uses remove_memory() for offlining memory and changing memory block's state and notifing the information. The patch does not implement notification to remove_memory().

2012-01-13kdump: add udev events for memory online/offlineMichael Holzheu1-3/+14
Currently no udev events for memory hotplug "online" and "offline" are generated: # udevadm monitor # echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory4/state ==> No event When kdump is loaded, kexec detects the current memory configuration and stores it in the pre-allocated ELF core header. Therefore, for kdump it is necessary to reload the kdump kernel with kexec when the memory configuration changes (e.g. for online/offline hotplug memory). In order to do this automatically, udev rules should be used. This kernel patch adds udev events for "online" and "offline". Together with this kernel patch, the following udev rules for online/offline have to be added to "/etc/udev/rules.d/98-kexec.rules": SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="online", PROGRAM="/etc/init.d/kdump restart" SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="offline", PROGRAM="/etc/init.d/kdump restart" [sfr@canb.auug.org.au: fixups for class to subsystem conversion] Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

2012-01-04HWPOISON: Clean up memory_failure() vs. __memory_failure()Tony Luck1-1/+1
There is only one caller of memory_failure(), all other users call __memory_failure() and pass in the flags argument explicitly. The lone user of memory_failure() will soon need to pass flags too. Add flags argument to the callsite in mce.c. Delete the old memory_failure() function, and then rename __memory_failure() without the leading "__". Provide clearer message when action optional memory errors are ignored. Acked-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@amd64.org> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
2011-12-22convert 'memory' sysdev_class to a regular subsystemKay Sievers1-94/+66
This moves the 'memory sysdev_class' over to a regular 'memory' subsystem and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are implemented as subsystem interfaces now. After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.

2011-10-19mm: memory hotplug: Check if pages are correctly reserved on a per-section basisMel Gorman1-18/+40
(Resending as I am not seeing it in -next so maybe it got lost) mm: memory hotplug: Check if pages are correctly reserved on a per-section basis It is expected that memory being brought online is PageReserved similar to what happens when the page allocator is being brought up. Memory is onlined in "memory blocks" which consist of one or more sections. Unfortunately, the code that verifies PageReserved is currently assuming that the memmap backing all these pages is virtually contiguous which is only the case when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is set. As a result, memory hot-add is failing on those configurations with the message; kernel: section number XXX page number 256 not reserved, was it already online? This patch updates the PageReserved check to lookup struct page once per section to guarantee the correct struct page is being checked.

The check to ensure that pages of recently added memory sections are correctly marked as reserved before trying to online the memory is broken. The request to online the memory fails with the following: kernel: section number XXX page number 256 not reserved, was it already online? This updates the page reservation checking to check the pages of each memory section of the memory block being onlined individually.

2011-05-12memory hotplug: Speed up add/remove when blocks are larger than ↵Anton Blanchard1-16/+8
PAGES_PER_SECTION On ppc64 the minimum memory section for hotplug is 16MB but most recent machines have a memory block size of 256MB. This means memory_block_change_state does 16 separate calls to memory_section_action. This also means we call the notifiers 16 times and the hook in the ehea network driver is quite costly. To offline one 256MB region takes: # time echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/state 7.9s This patch removes the loop and calls online_pages or remove_memory once for the entire region and in doing so makes the logic simpler since we don't have to back out if things fail part way through. The same test to offline one region now takes: # time echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/state 0.67s Over 11 times faster.
