[PATCH] enable booting a NUMA system where some nodes have no memory

2006-12-07T16:39:22+00:00

When booting a NUMA system with nodes that have no memory (eg by limiting memory), bootmem_alloc_core tried to find pages in an uninitialized bootmem_map. This caused a null pointer access. This fix adds a check, so that NULL is returned. That will enable the caller (bootmem_alloc_nopanic) to alloc memory on other without a panic.

[PATCH] bootmem: use MAX_DMA_ADDRESS instead of LOW32LIMIT

2006-09-26T15:48:49+00:00

Introduce ARCH_LOW_ADDRESS_LIMIT which can be set per architecture to override the 4GB default limit used by the bootmem allocater within __alloc_bootmem_low() and __alloc_bootmem_low_node(). E.g. s390 needs a 2GB limit instead of 4GB. Acked-by: Ingo Molnar Cc: Martin Schwidefsky Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] bootmem: miscellaneous coding style fixes

2006-09-26T15:48:45+00:00

It fixes various coding style issues, specially when spaces are useless. For example '*' go next to the function name. Signed-off-by: Franck Bui-Huu Cc: Dave Hansen Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] bootmem: use pfn/page conversion macros

It also creates get_mapsize() helper in order to make the code more readable when it calculates the boot bitmap size. Signed-off-by: Franck Bui-Huu Cc: Dave Hansen Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] x86_64: Handle empty PXMs that only contain hotplug memory

2006-04-09T18:53:16+00:00

The node setup code would try to allocate the node metadata in the node itself, but that fails if there is no memory in there. This can happen with memory hotplug when the hotplug area defines an so far empty node. Now use bootmem to try to allocate the mem_map in other nodes. And if it fails don't panic, but just ignore the node. To make this work I added a new __alloc_bootmem_nopanic function that does what its name implies. TBD should try to use nearby nodes here. Currently we just use any. It's hard to do it better because bootmem doesn't have proper fallback lists yet. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
