Subject: [PATCH v2 0/7] mm/hotplug: Only use subsection map in VMEMMAP case
Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2020 12:33:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200220043316.19668-1-bhe@redhat.com> (raw)

Memory sub-section hotplug was added to fix the issue that nvdimm could
be mapped at non-section aligned starting address. A subsection map is
added into struct mem_section_usage to implement it. However, sub-section
is only supported in VMEMMAP case. Hence there's no need to operate
subsection map in SPARSEMEM|!VMEMMAP case. In this patchset, change
codes to make sub-section map and the relevant operation only available
in VMEMMAP case.

And since sub-section hotplug added, the hot add/remove functionality
have been broken in SPARSEMEM|!VMEMMAP case. Wei Yang and I, each of us
make one patch to fix one of the failures. In this patchset, the patch
1/7 from me is used to fix the hot remove failure. Wei Yang's patch has
been merged by Andrew. 

Changelog:
v1->v2:
  Move the hot remove fixing patch to the front so that people can 
  back port it to easier. Suggested by David.

  Split the old patch which invalidate the sub-section map in
  !VMEMMAP case into two patches, patch 4/7, and patch 6/7. This
  makes patch reviewing easier. David by David.

  Take Wei Yang's fixing patch out to post alone, since it has been
  reviewed and acked by people. Suggested by Andrew.

  Fix a code comment mistake in the current patch 2/7. Found out by
  Wei Yang during reviewing.

Baoquan He (7):
  mm/hotplug: fix hot remove failure in SPARSEMEM|!VMEMMAP case
  mm/sparse.c: introduce new function fill_subsection_map()
  mm/sparse.c: introduce a new function clear_subsection_map()
  mm/sparse.c: only use subsection map in VMEMMAP case
  mm/sparse.c: add code comment about sub-section hotplug
  mm/sparse.c: move subsection_map related codes together
  mm/sparse.c: Use __get_free_pages() instead in
    populate_section_memmap()
