Now the size of CMA area for gigantic hugepages runtime allocation is
balanced for all online nodes, but we also want to specify the size of
CMA per-node, or only one node in some cases, which are similar with
commit 86acc55c3d32 ("hugetlbfs: extend the definition of hugepages
parameter to support node allocation")[1].
Thus this patch adds node format for 'hugetlb_cma' parameter to support
specifying the size of CMA per-node. An example is as follows:
hugetlb_cma=0:5G,2:5G
which means allocating 5G size of CMA area on node 0 and node 2
respectively.

IIUC, this changes the behavior for 'balanced' gigantic huge page pool
allocations if per-node hugetlb_cma is specified. It will now only
attempt to allocate gigantic pages on nodes where CMA was reserved.
Even if we run out of space on the node, it will not go to other nodes
as before. Is that correct?
Right.
I do not believe we want this change in behavior. IMO, if the user is
doing node specific CMA reservations, then the user should use the node
specific sysfs file for pool allocations on that node.
Sounds more reasonable, will move 'hugetlb_cma_nodes_allowed' to the
node specific allocation.

nid can only be compared to MAX_NUMNODES because this an early param
before numa is setup and we do not know exactly how many nodes there
are. Is this correct?
Yes.
Suppose one specifies an invaid node. For example, on my 2 node system
I use the option 'hugetlb_cma=2:2G'. This is not flagged as an error
during processing and 1G CMA is reserved on node 0 and 1G is reserved
on node 1. Is that by design, or just chance?
Actually we won't allocate any CMA area in this case, since in
hugetlb_cma_reserve(), we will only iterate the online nodes to try to
allocate CMA area, and node 2 is not in the range of online nodes in
this case.
We should be able to catch this in hugetlb_cma_reserve. For the example
above, I think we should flag this as an error and not reserve any CMA.
Sure, as I said above, it will not allocate CMA for the non-online nodes
though these invalid nodes can be specified in the command line. But I
can add a warning to catch the invalid nodes setting in
hugetlb_cma_reserve().

Earlier in hugetlb_cma_reserve (not in the context here), there is this
code:
if (hugetlb_cma_size < (PAGE_SIZE << order)) {
pr_warn("hugetlb_cma: cma area should be at least %lu MiB\n",
(PAGE_SIZE << order) / SZ_1M);
hugetlb_cma_size = 0;
return;
}
That causes an early exit if hugetlb_cma_size is too small for a
gigantic page.
On my 2 node x86 system with 1G gigantic pages, I can specify
'hugetlb_cma=0:512M,1:512M'. This does not trigger the above early exit
because total hugetlb_cma_size is 1G. It does end up reserving 1G on
node 0 and nothing on node 1. I do not believe this is by design. We
should validate the specified per-node sizes as well.
Sure. Will do in next version. Thanks for your comments.
