As we don't punch out pages of the memmap on x86-64, pfn_valid() keeps working as expected. There is a memmap that can be accessed and that was initialized. It's really just a matter of how to handle memory holes in this scenario. a) Try initializing them to the covering node/zone (I gave one example that might be tricky with hotplug) b) Mark such pages (either special node/zone or pagetype) and make pfn walkers ignore these holes. For now, this can only be done via the reserved flag. -- Thanks, David / dhildenb
