* [PATCH] mm: Ensure proper alignment for node_remap_start_pfnRavikiran G Thirumalai2005-07-29
| | | | | | | | | | | While reserving KVA for lmem_maps of node, we have to make sure that node_remap_start_pfn[] is aligned to a proper pmd boundary. (node_remap_start_pfn[] gets its value from node_end_pfn[]) Signed-off-by: Ravikiran Thirumalai <kiran@scalex86.org> Signed-off-by: Shai Fultheim <shai@scalex86.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] crashdump: x86 crashkernel optionEric W. Biederman2005-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the x86 implementation of the crashkernel option. It reserves a window of memory very early in the bootup process, so we never use it for anything but the kernel to switch to when the running kernel panics. In addition to reserving this memory a resource structure is registered so looking at /proc/iomem it is clear what happened to that memory. ISSUES: Is it possible to implement this in a architecture generic way? What should be done with architectures that always use an iommu and thus don't report their RAM memory resources in /proc/iomem?

* [PATCH] sparsemem base: teach discontig about sparse rangesDave Hansen2005-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | discontig.c has some assumptions that mem_map[]s inside of a node are contiguous. Teach it to make sure that each region that it's bringing online is actually made up of valid ranges of ram.

* [PATCH] sparsemem base: simple NUMA remap space allocatorDave Hansen2005-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce a simple allocator for the NUMA remap space. This space is very scarce, used for structures which are best allocated node local. This mechanism is also used on non-NUMA ia64 systems with a vmem_map to keep the pgdat->node_mem_map initialized in a consistent place for all architectures. Issues: o alloc_remap takes a node_id where we might expect a pgdat which was intended to allow us to allocate the pgdat's using this mechanism; which we do not yet do. Could have alloc_remap_node() and alloc_remap_nid() for this purpose.

* [PATCH] sparsemem base: early_pfn_to_nid() (works before sparse is initialized)Dave Hansen2005-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following four patches provide the last needed changes before the introduction of sparsemem. For a more complete description of what this will do, please see this patch: http://www.sr71.net/patches/2.6.11/2.6.11-bk7-mhp1/broken-out/B-sparse-150-sparsemem.patch or previous posts on the subject: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=110868540700001&r=1&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-mm&m=109897373315016&w=2 Three of these are i386-only, but one of them reorganizes the macros used to manage the space in page->flags, and will affect all platforms. There are analogous patches to the i386 ones for ppc64, ia64, and x86_64, but those will be submitted by the normal arch maintainers. The combination of the four patches has been test-booted on a variety of i386 hardware, and compiled for ppc64, i386, and x86-64 with about 17 different .configs. It's also been runtime-tested on ia64 configs (with more patches on top). This patch: We _know_ which node pages in general belong to, at least at a very gross level in node_{start,end}_pfn[]. Use those to target the allocations of pages.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-16
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
