| |
Hello.
I'll post newest patches for memory hotadd. In this this patch, pgdat is allocated when new node is comming. To initialize pgdat and zones, a set of patches are necessary. - to allcate and initialize pgdat, zone, zonelist. - to initialize node_data[] array (ia64) - to register sysfs file for new node. - to call memory_hotplug code from acpi container driver.
Note: - kmalloc is used for pgdat allocation in this version. So, even if pgdat is allocated, it will be allocated on the other node. This is only to simplify patches a bit. :-P - register sysfs file for new node is just for ia64. I hacked quickly for x86_64, but x86_64 doesn't use sysfs file for node. So, I gave up at least this week.....
This patches are for 2.6.16-rc2-mm1.
Please comment.
Thanks. -- Yasunori Goto
