Here are some bug fix patches for physical memory hot-remove. All these
patches are based on the latest -mm tree.

And patch1 and patch3 are very important.
patch1: free compound pages when freeing memmap, otherwise the kernel
         will panic the next time memory is hot-added.
patch3: the old way of freeing pagetable pages was wrong. We should never
         split larger pages into small ones.



Hi Tang,

I remember your big physical memory hot-remove patchset has already
merged by Andrew, but where I can find it? Could you give me git tree
address?

Andrew tree is also mirrored into a git tree.
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mhocko/mm.git;a=summary

It contains only Memory management patches on top of the last major
release (since-.X.Y branch).

Hi Michal,

I'm not sure I got your meaning. :)

In http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git akpm,
I can find the following commit.

memory-hotplug: do not allocate pgdat if it was not freed when offline.


This is one of memory hot-remove patches. Please try to update the mirror tree,
and try to find the above commit.

Thanks. :)
