There is no flag in memblock to describe what type the memory is.
Sometimes, we may use memblock to reserve some memory for special usage.
And we want to know what kind of memory it is. So we need a way to
differentiate memory for different usage.
In hotplug environment, we want to reserve hotpluggable memory so the
kernel won't be able to use it. And when the system is up, we have to
free these hotpluggable memory to buddy. So we need to mark these memory
first.
In order to do so, we need to mark out these special memory in memblock.
In this patch, we introduce a new "flags" member into memblock_region:
struct memblock_region {
phys_addr_t base;
phys_addr_t size;
unsigned long flags; /* This is new. */
#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP
int nid;
#endif
};
This patch does the following things:
1) Add "flags" member to memblock_region.
2) Modify the following APIs' prototype:
memblock_add_region()
memblock_insert_region()
3) Add memblock_reserve_region() to support reserve memory with flags, and keep
memblock_reserve()'s prototype unmodified.
4) Modify other APIs to support flags, but keep their prototype unmodified.
The idea is from Wen Congyang <wency@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and Liu Jiang <jiang.liu@xxxxxxxxxx>.
v1 -> v2:
As tj suggested, a zero flag MEMBLK_DEFAULT will make users confused. If
we want to specify any other flag, such MEMBLK_HOTPLUG, users don't know
to use MEMBLK_DEFAULT | MEMBLK_HOTPLUG or just MEMBLK_HOTPLUG. So remove
MEMBLK_DEFAULT (which is 0), and just use 0 by default to avoid confusions
to users.
