[PATCH v2 0/2] Fix node meminfo and zoneinfo corruption.

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

 



There are two problems in memory hot-add progress:

1. When hot-adding a node without onlining any page, node meminfo corrupted:

# hot-add node2 (memory not onlined)
# cat /sys/device/system/node/node2/meminfo
Node 2 MemTotal:       33554432 kB			/* corrupted */
Node 2 MemFree:               0 kB
Node 2 MemUsed:        33554432 kB
Node 2 Active:                0 kB
......


2. When onlining memory on node2, node2 zoneinfo and node3 meminfo corrupted:

# for ((i = 2048; i < 2064; i++)); do echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/node/node2/memory$i/state; done
# cat /sys/devices/system/node/node2/meminfo
Node 2 MemTotal:       33554432 kB
Node 2 MemFree:        33549092 kB
Node 2 MemUsed:            5340 kB
......
# cat /sys/devices/system/node/node3/meminfo
Node 3 MemTotal:              0 kB
Node 3 MemFree:               248 kB      /* corrupted, should be 0 */
Node 3 MemUsed:               0 kB
......

# cat /proc/zoneinfo
......
Node 2, zone   Movable
......
        spanned  8388608
        present  16777216		/* corrupted, should be 8388608 */
        managed  8388608



Change log v1 -> v2:
1. Replace patch 2/2 with a new one. It provides the simplest way to
   fix problem 2. 

Tang Chen (2):
  mem-hotplug: Reset node managed pages when hot-adding a new pgdat.
  mem-hotplug: Reset node present pages when hot-adding a new pgdat.
