I has send patch V2 to improve the execution efficiency of numa_meminfo_cover_memory() by optimize the way of calculating missing pages. patch V2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230619075315.49114-1-zhiguangni01@xxxxxxxxx/ In the previous implementation, We calculate missing pages as follows: 1. calculate numaram by traverse all the numa_meminfo's and for each of them traverse all the regions in memblock.memory to prepare for counting missing pages. 2. Traverse all the regions in memblock.memory again to get e820ram. 3. the missing page is (e820ram - numaram ) But,it's enough to count memory in memblock.memory that doesn't have the node assigned. we only need to traverse memblock.memory **once**.
