Can you explain the "pressure" part a bit more concretely - as in when did you saw crashes, oom, yadi yada .... > Signed-off-by: Eugeniy Paltsev <Eugeniy.Paltsev@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > Tested on both NSIM and HSDK (require memory apertures remmaping and > device tree patching) How can one test this patch w/o those - are they secret which rest of world should not know about :-) Jokes apart, at the very least, please include them as part of changelog "as indicative code" which people can use in testing if needed. Preferably they need to be part of platform code under the right config (HIGHMEM + PAE etc) FWIW as mentioned on other thread, for my setup of PAE + 2GB HIGHMEM (so 2 nodes) 1. I didn't need any AXI aperture remapping 2. Didn't see any extra mem pressure / failures when running glibc testsuite > > arch/arc/include/asm/Kbuild | 1 - > arch/arc/include/asm/topology.h | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 2 files changed, 30 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > create mode 100644 arch/arc/include/asm/topology.h > > diff --git a/arch/arc/include/asm/Kbuild b/arch/arc/include/asm/Kbuild > index caa270261521..e64e0439baff 100644 > --- a/arch/arc/include/asm/Kbuild > +++ b/arch/arc/include/asm/Kbuild > @@ -18,7 +18,6 @@ generic-y += msi.h > generic-y += parport.h > generic-y += percpu.h > generic-y += preempt.h > -generic-y += topology.h > generic-y += trace_clock.h > generic-y += user.h > generic-y += vga.h > diff --git a/arch/arc/include/asm/topology.h b/arch/arc/include/asm/topology.h > new file mode 100644 > index 000000000000..c273506931c9 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/arch/arc/include/asm/topology.h > @@ -0,0 +1,30 @@ > +#ifndef _ASM_ARC_TOPOLOGY_H > +#define _ASM_ARC_TOPOLOGY_H > + > +/* > + * On ARC (w/o PAE) HIGHMEM addresses are smaller (0x0 based) than addresses in > + * NORMAL aka low memory (0x8000_0000 based). > + * Thus HIGHMEM on ARC is imlemented with DISCONTIGMEM which requires multiple s/imlemented/implemented > + * nodes.

I would like to give this a spin myself, but first need to know what tests cause the increased failures which this patch mitigates.
