[PATCH 05/13] mm: meminit: Make __early_pfn_to_nid SMP-safe and introduce meminit_pfn_in_nid

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

 



__early_pfn_to_nid() use static variables to cache recent lookups as memblock
lookups are very expensive but it assumes that memory initialisation is
single-threaded. Parallel initialisation of struct pages will break that
assumption so this patch makes __early_pfn_to_nid() SMP-safe by requiring
the caller to cache recent search information. early_pfn_to_nid() keeps
the same interface but is only safe to use early in boot due to the use
of a global static variable. meminit_pfn_in_nid() is an SMP-safe version
that callers must maintain their own state for.
