From 48c906823f3927b981db9f0b03c2e2499977ee93 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yasunori Goto Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2008 21:28:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] memory hotplug: allocate usemap on the section with pgdat Usemaps are allocated on the section which has pgdat by this. Because usemap size is very small, many other sections usemaps are allocated on only one page. If a section has usemap, it can't be removed until removing other sections. This dependency is not desirable for memory removing. Pgdat has similar feature. When a section has pgdat area, it must be the last section for removing on the node. So, if section A has pgdat and section B has usemap for section A, Both sections can't be removed due to dependency each other. To solve this issue, this patch collects usemap on same section with pgdat as much as possible. If other sections doesn't have any dependency, this section will be able to be removed finally.
