Subject: acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is ready
On linux, the pages used by kernel could not be migrated. As a result, if
a memory range is used by kernel, it cannot be hot-removed. So if we want
to hot-remove memory, we should prevent kernel from using it.
The way now used to prevent this is specify a memory range by
movablemem_map boot option and set it as ZONE_MOVABLE.
But when the system is booting, memblock will allocate memory, and reserve
the memory for kernel. And before we parse SRAT, and know the node memory
ranges, memblock is working. And it may allocate memory in ranges to be
set as ZONE_MOVABLE. This memory can be used by kernel, and never be
freed.
So, let's parse SRAT before memblock is called first. And it is early enough.
The first call of memblock_find_in_range_node() is in:
setup_arch()
|-->setup_real_mode()
so, this patch add a function early_parse_srat() to parse SRAT, and call
it before setup_real_mode() is called.
NOTE:
1) Do not clear numa_nodes_parsed in numa_init() because SRAT was
parsed earlier.
2) I don't know why using count of memory affinities parsed from SRAT
as a return value in original acpi_numa_init(). So I add a static
variable srat_mem_cnt to remember this count and use it as the return
value of the new acpi_numa_init()
