2012-05-29mm: remove sparsemem allocation details from the bootmem allocatorJohannes Weiner
alloc_bootmem_section() derives allocation area constraints from the specified sparsemem section. This is a bit specific for a generic memory allocator like bootmem, though, so move it over to sparsemem. As __alloc_bootmem_node_nopanic() already retries failed allocations with relaxed area constraints, the fallback code in sparsemem.c can be removed and the code becomes a bit more compact overall.

2012-05-29mm: nobootmem: unify allocation policy of (non-)panicking node allocationsJohannes Weiner
While the panicking node-specific allocation function tries to satisfy node+goal, goal, node, anywhere, the non-panicking function still does node+goal, goal, anywhere. Make it simpler: define the panicking version in terms of the non-panicking one, like the node-agnostic interface, so they always behave the same way apart from how to deal with allocation failure.

2012-05-10mm: nobootmem: fix sign extend problem in __free_pages_memory()Russ Anderson
Systems with 8 TBytes of memory or greater can hit a problem where only the the first 8 TB of memory shows up. This is due to "int i" being smaller than "unsigned long start_aligned", causing the high bits to be dropped. The fix is to change `i' to unsigned long to match start_aligned and end_aligned. Thanks to Jack Steiner for assistance tracking this down.

2012-04-26mm: nobootmem: Correct alloc_bootmem semantics.David Miller
The comments above __alloc_bootmem_node() claim that the code will first try the allocation using 'goal' and if that fails it will try again but with the 'goal' requirement dropped. Unfortunately, this is not what the code does, so fix it to do so. This is important for nobootmem conversions to architectures such as sparc where MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is infinity. On such architectures all of the allocations done by generic spots, such as the sparse-vmemmap implementation, will pass in: __pa(MAX_DMA_ADDRESS) as the goal, and with the limit given as "-1" this will always fail unless we add the appropriate fallback logic here.

Conflicts & resolutions: * arch/x86/xen/setup.c dc91c728fd "xen: allow extra memory to be in multiple regions" 24aa07882b "memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free..." conflicted on xen_add_extra_mem() updates. The resolution is trivial as the latter just want to replace memblock_x86_reserve_range() with memblock_reserve(). * drivers/pci/intel-iommu.c 166e9278a3f "x86/ia64: intel-iommu: move to drivers/iommu/" 5dfe8660a3d "bootmem: Replace work_with_active_regions() with..." conflicted as the former moved the file under drivers/iommu/. Resolved by applying the chnages from the latter on the moved file. * mm/Kconfig 6661672053a "memblock: add NO_BOOTMEM config symbol" c378ddd53f9 "memblock, x86: Make ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK a config option" conflicted trivially. Both added config options. Just letting both add their own options resolves the conflict. * mm/memblock.c d1f0ece6cdc "mm/memblock.c: small function definition fixes" ed7b56a799c "memblock: Remove memblock_memory_can_coalesce()" confliected.

2011-07-14memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free_range() with generic onesTejun Heo
Other than sanity check and debug message, the x86 specific version of memblock reserve/free functions are simple wrappers around the generic versions - memblock_reserve/free(). This patch adds debug messages with caller identification to the generic versions and replaces x86 specific ones and kills them. arch/x86/include/asm/memblock.h and arch/x86/mm/memblock.c are empty after this change and removed.

for_each_free_mem_range() __get_free_all_memory_range() walks memblock, calculates free memory areas and fills in the specified range. It can be easily replaced with for_each_free_mem_range(). Convert free_low_memory_core_early() and add_highpages_with_active_regions() to for_each_free_mem_range(). This leaves __get_free_all_memory_range() without any user. Kill it and related functions.

2011-07-14memblock, x86: Make free_all_memory_core_early() explicitly free lowmem onlyTejun Heo
nomemblock is currently used only by x86 and on x86_32 free_all_memory_core_early() silently freed only the low mem because get_free_all_memory_range() in arch/x86/mm/memblock.c implicitly limited range to max_low_pfn. Rename free_all_memory_core_early() to free_low_memory_core_early() and make it call __get_free_all_memory_range() and limit the range to max_low_pfn explicitly. This makes things clearer and also is consistent with the bootmem behavior. This leaves get_free_all_memory_range() without any user. Kill it.

2011-07-14memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_find_in_range_node() with generic ↵Tejun Heo
memblock calls With the previous changes, generic NUMA aware memblock API has feature parity with memblock_x86_find_in_range_node(). There currently are two users - x86 setup_node_data() and __alloc_memory_core_early() in nobootmem.c. This patch converts the former to use memblock_alloc_nid() and the latter memblock_find_range_in_node(), and kills memblock_x86_find_in_range_node() and related functions including find_memory_early_core_early() in page_alloc.c.

2011-03-24crash_dump: export is_kdump_kernel to modules, consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, ↵Olaf Hering
setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn The Xen PV drivers in a crashed HVM guest can not connect to the dom0 backend drivers because both frontend and backend drivers are still in connected state. To run the connection reset function only in case of a crashdump, the is_kdump_kernel() function needs to be available for the PV driver modules. Consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn into kernel/crash_dump.c Also export elfcorehdr_addr to make is_kdump_kernel() usable for modules. Leave 'elfcorehdr' as early_param(). This changes powerpc from __setup() to early_param(). It adds an address range check from x86 also on ia64 and powerpc.

2011-02-24bootmem: Move __alloc_memory_core_early() to nobootmem.cYinghai Lu
Now that bootmem.c and nobootmem.c are separate, there's no reason to define __alloc_memory_core_early(), which is used only by nobootmem, inside #ifdef in page_alloc.c.

2011-02-24bootmem: Separate out CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM code into nobootmem.cYinghai Lu
mm/bootmem.c contained code paths for both bootmem and no bootmem configurations. They implement about the same set of APIs in different ways and as a result bootmem.c contains massive amount of #ifdef CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM. Separate out CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM code into mm/nobootmem.c. As the common part is relatively small, duplicate them in nobootmem.c instead of creating a common file or ifdef'ing in bootmem.c. The followings are duplicated. * {min|max}_low_pfn, max_pfn, saved_max_pfn * free_bootmem_late() * ___alloc_bootmem() * __alloc_bootmem_low() The followings are applicable only to nobootmem and moved verbatim. * __free_pages_memory() * free_all_memory_core_early() The followings are not applicable to nobootmem and omitted in nobootmem.c. * reserve_bootmem_node() * reserve_bootmem() The rest split function bodies according to CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM. Makefile is updated so that only either bootmem.c or nobootmem.c is built according to CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior change. -tj: Rewrote commit description.
