  • 2bf8ec2d8   [MIPS] IP27: Fix bootmem memory setup ... Browse Code »

    Changes in the generic bootmem code broke memory setup for IP27. This
    patch fixes this by replacing lots of special IP27 code with generic
    bootmon code. This has been tested only on a single node.

  • 72a7fe396   Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem() ... Browse Code »

    This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
    BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
    between crashkernel area and already used memory.

    This patch:

    Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
    If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
    has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts.

    Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
    inside reserve_bootmem_core().

  • 22a9835c3   [PATCH] unify PFN_* macros ... Browse Code »

    Just about every architecture defines some macros to do operations on pfns.
    They're all virtually identical. This patch consolidates all of them.

    One minor glitch is that at least i386 uses them in a very skeletal header
    file. To keep away from #include dependency hell, I stuck the new
    definitions in a new, isolated header.

    Of all of the implementations, sh64 is the only one that varied by a bit.
    It used some masks to ensure that any sign-extension got ripped away before
    the arithmetic is done. This has been posted to that sh64 maintainers and
    the development list.

    Compiles on x86, x86_64, ia64 and ppc64.

  • 7835e98b2   [PATCH] remove set_page_count() outside mm/ ... Browse Code »

    set_page_count usage outside mm/ is limited to setting the refcount to 1.
    Remove set_page_count from outside mm/, and replace those users with
    init_page_count() and set_page_refcounted().

    This allows more debug checking, and tighter control on how code is allowed
    to play around with page->_count.

  • 408fde81c   [PATCH] remove non-DISCONTIG use of pgdat->node_mem_map ... Browse Code »

    This patch effectively eliminates direct use of pgdat->node_mem_map outside
    of the DISCONTIG code. On a flat memory system, these fields aren't
    currently used, neither are they on a sparsemem system.

    There was also a node_mem_map(nid) macro on many architectures. Its use
    along with the use of ->node_mem_map itself was not consistent. It has
    been removed in favor of two new, more explicit, arch-independent macros:

    pgdat_page_nr(pgdat, pagenr)
    nid_page_nr(nid, pagenr)

    I called them "pgdat" and "nid" because we overload the term "node" to mean
    "NUMA node", "DISCONTIG node" or "pg_data_t" in very confusing ways. I
    believe the newer names are much clearer.

    These macros can be overridden in the sparsemem case with a theoretically
    slower operation using node_start_pfn and pfn_to_page(), instead. We could
    make this the only behavior if people want, but I don't want to change too
    much at once. One thing at a time.

    This patch removes more code than it adds.

    Compile tested on alpha, alpha discontig, arm, arm-discontig, i386, i386
    generic, NUMAQ, Summit, ppc64, ppc64 discontig, and x86_64. Full list
    here: http://sr71.net/patches/2.6.12/2.6.12-rc1-mhp2/configs/

    Boot tested on NUMAQ, x86 SMP and ppc64 power4/5 LPARs.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
