Subject: [PATCH v5 1/3] x86/mm: Add a kernel parameter to change the padding used for the physical memory mapping
Date: Mon,  1 Oct 2018 10:08:41 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181001140843.26137-2-msys.mizuma@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Masayoshi Mizuma <m.mizuma@jp.fujitsu.com>

If each node of physical memory layout has huge space for hotplug,
the padding used for the physical memory mapping section is not enough.
For exapmle of the layout:
  SRAT: Node 6 PXM 4 [mem 0x100000000000-0x13ffffffffff] hotplug
  SRAT: Node 7 PXM 5 [mem 0x140000000000-0x17ffffffffff] hotplug
  SRAT: Node 2 PXM 6 [mem 0x180000000000-0x1bffffffffff] hotplug
  SRAT: Node 3 PXM 7 [mem 0x1c0000000000-0x1fffffffffff] hotplug

We can increase the padding by CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY_PHYSICAL_PADDING,
however, the needed padding size depends on the system environment.
The kernel option is better than changing the config.
