[PATCH v2 2/5] page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter

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

 



This patch adds functions to parse movablecore_map boot option. Since the
option could be specified more then once, all the maps will be stored in
the global variable movablecore_map.map array.

And also, we keep the array in monotonic increasing order by start_pfn.
And merge all overlapped ranges.

+			[KNL,X86,IA-64,PPC] This parameter is similar to
+			memmap except it specifies the memory map of
+			ZONE_MOVABLE.
+			If more areas are all within one node, then from
+			lowest ss to the end of the node will be ZONE_MOVABLE.
+			If an area covers two or more nodes, the area from
+			ss to the end of the 1st node will be ZONE_MOVABLE,
+			and all the rest nodes will only have ZONE_MOVABLE.
+			If memmap is specified at the same time, the
+			movablecore_map will be limited within the memmap
+			areas. If kernelcore or movablecore is also specified,
+			movablecore_map will have higher priority to be
+			satisfied. So the administrator should be careful that
+			the amount of movablecore_map areas are not too large.
+			Otherwise kernel won't have enough memory to start.
