From 20b2f52b73febce476fc9376f0296c1aa0e4f5a7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lai Jiangshan Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2012 13:52:00 -0800 Subject: numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for movable-dedicated node We need a node which only contains movable memory. This feature is very important for node hotplug. If a node has normal/highmem, the memory may be used by the kernel and can't be offlined. If the node only contains movable memory, we can offline the memory and the node. All are prepared, we can actually introduce N_MEMORY. add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE make we can use it for movable-dedicated node [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix Kconfig text] Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan Tested-by: Yasuaki Ishimatsu Signed-off-by: Wen Congyang Cc: Jiang Liu Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro Cc: Minchan Kim Cc: Mel Gorman Cc: David Rientjes Cc: Yinghai Lu Cc: Rusty Russell Cc: Greg KH Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- mm/Kconfig | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) (limited to 'mm/Kconfig') diff --git a/mm/Kconfig b/mm/Kconfig index e6651c5de14f..1680a0123a13 100644 --- a/mm/Kconfig +++ b/mm/Kconfig @@ -143,6 +143,14 @@ config NO_BOOTMEM config MEMORY_ISOLATION boolean +config MOVABLE_NODE + boolean "Enable to assign a node which has only movable memory" + depends on HAVE_MEMBLOCK + depends on NO_BOOTMEM + depends on X86_64 + depends on NUMA + default y + # eventually, we can have this option just 'select SPARSEMEM' config MEMORY_HOTPLUG bool "Allow for memory hot-add" -- cgit v1.2.1
