Subject: [PATCH] pgdat allocation for new node add (call pgdat allocation)
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.18-rc1~579
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9af3c2dea3a3ae4248d81a70b556adfe1dc65d55;p=pandora-kernel.git

[PATCH] pgdat allocation for new node add (call pgdat allocation)

Add node-hot-add support to add_memory().

node hotadd uses this sequence.
1. allocate pgdat.
2. refresh NODE_DATA()
3. call free_area_init_node() to initialize
4. create sysfs entry
5. add memory (old add_memory())
6. set node online
7. run kswapd for new node.
(8). update zonelist after pages are onlined. (This is already merged in -mm
   due to update phase is difference.)

Note:
  To make common function as much as possible,
  there is 2 changes from v2.
    - The old add_memory(), which is defiend by each archs,
      is renamed to arch_add_memory(). New add_memory becomes
      caller of arch dependent function as a common code.

    - This patch changes add_memory()'s interface
        From: add_memory(start, end)
        TO  : add_memory(nid, start, end).
      It was cause of similar code that finding node id from
      physical address is inside of old add_memory() on each arch.

      In addition, acpi memory hotplug driver can find node id easier.
      In v2, it must walk DSDT'S _CRS by matching physical address to
      get the handle of its memory device, then get _PXM and node id.
      Because input is just physical address.
      However, in v3, the acpi driver can use handle to get _PXM and node id
      for the new memory device. It can pass just node id to add_memory().

Fix interface of arch_add_memory() is in next patche.
