[PATCH v2 0/5] Do not touch pages in hot-remove path

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@xxxxxxxx>

This patchset is based on Dan's HMM/devm refactorization [1].

----

This patchset aims for two things:

 1) A better definition about offline and hot-remove stage
 2) Solving bugs where we can access non-initialized pages
    during hot-remove operations [2] [3].

This is achieved by moving all page/zone handling to the offline
stage, so we do not need to access pages when hot-removing memory.
