Subject: [RFC PATCH 7/7] [not for merge] mm: increase SECTION_SIZE_BITS to 31
Date: Thu,  6 May 2021 11:26:23 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210506152623.178731-8-zi.yan@sent.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210506152623.178731-1-zi.yan@sent.com>

From: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com>

This is only used to test onlining/offlining subsection memory in
a x86_64 system by increasing section size to 2GB and pageblock size to
1GB when MAX_ORDER is set to 20.

+	  The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
+	  blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
+	  pages.  This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
+	  keeps in the memory allocator.  If you need to allocate very large

+	  increase this value.
+
+	  This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
+	  a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
