When NUMA emulation succeeds, acpi_numa needs to be set to -1 so that
srat_disabled() will always return true. We won't be calling
acpi_scan_nodes() or registering the true nodes we've found.

e820_hole_size() now uses the newly extracted helper function,
e820_find_active_region(), to determine the size of usable RAM in a range of
PFN's.
This was previously broken because of two reasons:
- The start and end PFN's of each e820 entry were not properly rounded
prior to excluding those entries in the range, and
- Entries smaller than a page were not properly excluded from being
accumulated.
This resulted in emulated nodes being incorrectly mapped to ranges that
were completely reserved and not candidates for being registered as
active ranges.

For NUMA emulation, our SLIT should represent the true NUMA topology of the
system but our proximity domain to node ID mapping needs to reflect the
emulated state.
When NUMA emulation has successfully setup fake nodes on the system, a new
function, acpi_fake_nodes() is called. This function determines the proximity
domain (_PXM) for each true node found on the system. It then finds which
emulated nodes have been allocated on this true node as determined by its
starting address. The node ID to PXM mapping is changed so that each fake
node ID points to the PXM of the true node that it is located on.
If the machine failed to register a SLIT, then we assume there is no special
requirement for emulated node affinity so we use the default LOCAL_DISTANCE,
which is newly exported to this code, as our measurement if the emulated nodes
appear in the same PXM. Otherwise, we use REMOTE_DISTANCE.
PXM_INVAL and NID_INVAL are also exported to the ACPI header file so that we
can compare node_to_pxm() results in generic code (in this case, the SRAT
code).

Extends the numa=fake x86_64 command-line option to split the remaining system
memory into nodes of fixed size. Any leftover memory is allocated to a final
node unless the command-line ends with a comma.
For example:
numa=fake=2*512,*128 gives two 512M nodes and the remaining system
memory is split into nodes of 128M each.
This is beneficial for systems where the exact size of RAM is unknown or not
necessarily relevant, but the size of the remaining nodes to be allocated is
known based on their capacity for resource management.

Extends the numa=fake x86_64 command-line option to allow for configurable
node sizes. These nodes can be used in conjunction with cpusets for coarse
memory resource management.
The old command-line option is still supported:
numa=fake=32 gives 32 fake NUMA nodes, ignoring the NUMA setup of the
actual machine.
But now you may configure your system for the node sizes of your choice:
numa=fake=2*512,1024,2*256
gives two 512M nodes, one 1024M node, two 256M nodes, and
the rest of system memory to a sixth node.
The existing hash function is maintained to support the various node sizes
that are possible with this implementation.
Each node of the same size receives roughly the same amount of available
pages, regardless of any reserved memory with its address range. The total
available pages on the system is calculated and divided by the number of equal
nodes to allocate. These nodes are then dynamically allocated and their
borders extended until such time as their number of available pages reaches
the required size.
Configurable node sizes are recommended when used in conjunction with cpusets
for memory control because it eliminates the overhead associated with scanning
the zonelists of many smaller full nodes on page_alloc().

This patch resolves the issue of running with numa=fake=X on kernel command
line on x86_64 machines that have big IO hole. While calculating the size
of each node now we look at the total hole size in that range.
Previously there were nodes that only had IO holes in them causing kernel
boot problems. We now use the NODE_MIN_SIZE (64MB) as the minimum size of
memory that any node must have. We reduce the number of allocated nodes if
the number of nodes specified on kernel command line results in any node
getting memory smaller than NODE_MIN_SIZE.
This change allows the extra memory to be incremented in NODE_MIN_SIZE
granule and uniformly distribute among as many nodes (called big nodes) as
possible.

- Removed an extraneous debug message from allocate_cachealigned_map
- Changed extract_lsb_from_nodes to return 63 for the case where there was
only one memory node. The prevents the creation of the dynamic hashmap.
- Changed extract_lsb_from_nodes to use only the starting memory address of
a node. On an ES7000, our nodes overlap the starting and ending address,
meaning, that we see nodes like
00000 - 10000
10000 - 20000
But other systems have nodes whose start and end addresses do not overlap.
For example:
00000 - 0FFFF
10000 - 1FFFF
In this case, using the ending address will result in an LSB much lower
than what is possible. In this case an LSB of 1 when in reality it should
be 16.

Remove the statically allocated memory to NUMA node hash map in favor of a
dynamically allocated memory to node hash map (it is cache aligned).
This patch has the nice side effect in that it allows the hash map to grow
for systems with large amounts of memory (256GB - 1TB), but suffer from
having small PCI space tacked onto the boot node (which is somewhere
between 192MB to 512MB on the ES7000).

Arch-independent zone-sizing is using indices instead of symbolic names to
offset within an array related to zones (max_zone_pfns). The unintended
impact is that ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL is initialised on powerpc instead
of ZONE_DMA and ZONE_HIGHMEM when CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set. As a result, the
the machine fails to boot but will boot with CONFIG_HIGHMEM turned off.
The following patch properly initialises the max_zone_pfns[] array and uses
symbolic names instead of indices in each architecture using
arch-independent zone-sizing. Two users have successfully booted their
powerpcs with it (one an ibook G4). It has also been boot tested on x86,
x86_64, ppc64 and ia64. Please merge for 2.6.19-rc2.

Instead of hackish manual parsing
Requires earlier i386 patchkit, but also fixes i386 early_printk again.
I removed some obsolete really early parameters which didn't do anything useful.
Also made a few parameters that needed it early (mostly oops printing setup)
Also removed one panic check that wasn't visible without
early console anyways (the early console is now initialized after that
panic)
This cleans up a lot of code.

The node setup code would try to allocate the node metadata in the node
itself, but that fails if there is no memory in there.
This can happen with memory hotplug when the hotplug area defines an so
far empty node.
Now use bootmem to try to allocate the mem_map in other nodes.
And if it fails don't panic, but just ignore the node.
To make this work I added a new __alloc_bootmem_nopanic function that
does what its name implies.
TBD should try to use nearby nodes here. Currently we just use any.
It's hard to do it better because bootmem doesn't have proper fallback
lists yet.

From: Keith Mannthey, Andi Kleen
Implement memory hotadd without sparsemem. The memory in the SRAT
hotadd area is just preserved instead and can be activated later.
There are a few restrictions:
- Only one continuous hotadd area allowed per node
The main problem is dealing with the many buggy SRAT tables
that are out there. The strategy here is to reject anything
suspicious.
Originally from Keith Mannthey, with several hacks and changes by AK
and also contributions from Andrew Morton
[ TBD: Problems pointed out by KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com>:
1) Goto's rebuild_zonelist patch will not work if CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=n.
Rebuilding zonelist is necessary when the system has just memory <
4G at boot, and hot add memory > 4G. because x86_64 has DMA32,
ZONE_NORAML is not included into zonelist at boot time if system
doesn't have memory >4G at boot.
[AK: should just force the higher zones at boot time when SRAT tells us]
2) zone and node's spanned_pages and present_pages are not incremented.
They should be.
For example, our server (ia64/Fujitsu PrimeQuest) can equip memory
from 4G to 1T(maybe 2T in future), and SRAT will *always* say we have
possible 1T +memory. (Microsoft requires "write all possible memory
in SRAT") When we reserve memmap for possible 1T memory, Linux will
not work well in +minimum 4G configuraion ;)
[AK: needs limiting to 5-10% of max memory]

The early initialization of cpu_to_node code as it is now only updates the
cpu_to_node array, and does not update cpu_pda()->nodemember. This will
cause numa_node_id() to return 0 on systems where CPU 0 is not on Node 0.
This leads to a kernel panic in slab.c.

Patch enables early intialization of cpu_to_node.
apicid_to_node is built by reading the SRAT table, from acpi_numa_init with
ACPI_NUMA and k8_scan_nodes with K8_NUMA.
x86_cpu_to_apicid is built by parsing the ACPI MADT table, from acpi_boot_init.
We combine these two tables and setup cpu_to_node.
Early intialization helps the static per_cpu_areas in getting pages from
correct node.
Change since last release:
Do not initialize early init_cpu_to_node for faking node cases.
Patch tested on TYAN dual core 4P board with K8 only, ACPI_NUMA.
Tested on EM64T NUMA. Also tested with numa=off, numa=fake, and running

The current x86_64 NUMA memory code is inconsequent when it comes to node
memory ranges. The exact behaviour varies depending on which config option
that is used.
setup_node_bootmem() has start and end as arguments and these are used to
calculate the size of the node like this: (end - start). This is all fine
if end is pointing to the first non-available byte. The problem is that the
current x86_64 code sometimes treats it as the last present byte and sometimes
as the first non-available byte. The result is that some configurations might
lose a page at the end of the range.
This patch tries to fix CONFIG_ACPI_NUMA, CONFIG_K8_NUMA and CONFIG_NUMA_EMU
so they all treat the end variable as the first non-available byte. This is
the same way as the single node code.
The patch is boot tested on dual x86_64 hardware with the above configurations,
but maybe the removed code is needed as some workaround?

Compute the highest possible value for memnode_shift, in order to reduce

Node 0 MemBase 0000000000000000 Limit 00000001ffffffff
Node 1 MemBase 0000000200000000 Limit 00000003ffffffff
Using 23 for the hash shift. Max adder is 3ffffffff
After the patch :
Node 0 MemBase 0000000000000000 Limit 00000001ffffffff
Node 1 MemBase 0000000200000000 Limit 00000003ffffffff
Using 33 for the hash shift.
In this case, only 2 bytes of memnodemap[] are used, instead of 2048

Add a new 4GB GFP_DMA32 zone between the GFP_DMA and GFP_NORMAL zones.
As a bit of historical background: when the x86-64 port
was originally designed we had some discussion if we should
use a 16MB DMA zone like i386 or a 4GB DMA zone like IA64 or
both. Both was ruled out at this point because it was in early
2.4 when VM is still quite shakey and had bad troubles even
dealing with one DMA zone. We settled on the 16MB DMA zone mainly
because we worried about older soundcards and the floppy.
But this has always caused problems since then because
device drivers had trouble getting enough DMA able memory. These days
the VM works much better and the wide use of NUMA has proven
it can deal with many zones successfully.
So this patch adds both zones.
This helps drivers who need a lot of memory below 4GB because
their hardware is not accessing more (graphic drivers - proprietary
and free ones, video frame buffer drivers, sound drivers etc.).
Previously they could only use IOMMU+16MB GFP_DMA, which
was not enough memory.
Another common problem is that hardware who has full memory
addressing for >4GB misses it for some control structures in memory
(like transmit rings or other metadata). They tended to allocate memory
in the 16MB GFP_DMA or the IOMMU/swiotlb then using pci_alloc_consistent,
but that can tie up a lot of precious 16MB GFPDMA/IOMMU/swiotlb memory
(even on AMD systems the IOMMU tends to be quite small) especially if you have
many devices. With the new zone pci_alloc_consistent can just put
this stuff into memory below 4GB which works better.
One argument was still if the zone should be 4GB or 2GB. The main
motivation for 2GB would be an unnamed not so unpopular hardware
raid controller (mostly found in older machines from a particular four letter
company) who has a strange 2GB restriction in firmware. But
that one works ok with swiotlb/IOMMU anyways, so it doesn't really
need GFP_DMA32. I chose 4GB to be compatible with IA64 and because
it seems to be the most common restriction.
The new zone is so far added only for x86-64.
For other architectures who don't set up this
new zone nothing changes. Architectures can set a compatibility
define in Kconfig CONFIG_DMA_IS_DMA32 that will define GFP_DMA32
as GFP_DMA. Otherwise it's a nop because on 32bit architectures
it's normally not needed because GFP_NORMAL (=0) is DMA able
enough.
One problem is still that GFP_DMA means different things on different
architectures. e.g. some drivers used to have #ifdef ia64 use GFP_DMA
(trusting it to be 4GB) #elif __x86_64__ (use other hacks like
the swiotlb because 16MB is not enough) ... . This was quite
ugly and is now obsolete.
These should be now converted to use GFP_DMA32 unconditionally. I haven't done
this yet. Or best only use pci_alloc_consistent/dma_alloc_coherent
which will use GFP_DMA32 transparently.

The tests Alok carried out on Petr's box confirmed that cpu_to_node[BP] is
not setup early enough by numa_init_array due to the x86_64 changes in
2.6.14-rc*, and unfortunately set wrongly by the work around code in
numa_init_array(). cpu_to_node[0] gets set with 1 early and later gets set
properly to 0 during identify_cpu() when all cpus are brought up, but
confusing the numa slab in the process.
Here is a quick fix for this. The right fix obviously is to have
cpu_to_node[bsp] setup early for numa_init_array(). The following patch
will fix the problem now, and the code can stay on even when
cpu_to_node{BP] gets fixed early correctly.

Fix the BP node_to_cpumask. 2.6.14-rc* broke the boot cpu bit as the
cpu_to_node(0) is now not setup early enough for numa_init_array.
cpu_to_node[] is setup much later at srat_detect_node on acpi srat based
em64t machines. This seems like a problem on amd machines too, Tested on

parsing
In particular on systems where the local APIC space and node space
is very different from the Linux CPU number space.
Previously the older NUMA setup code directly parsing the K8
northbridge registers had some issues on 8 socket or dual core
systems. This patch fixes them.
This is mainly done by fixing some confusion between Linux
CPU numbers and local APIC ids. We now pass the local APIC IDs
to later code, which avoids mismatches.
Also add some heuristics to detect cases where the Hypertransport
nodeids and the local APIC IDs don't match, but are shifted
by a constant offset.
This is still all quite hackish, hopefully BIOS writers fill
in correct SRATs instead.

Do that later when the CPU boots. SRAT just stores the APIC<->Node
mapping node. This fixes problems on systems where the order
of SRAT entries does not match the MADT.

Some nodes can have large holes on x86-64.
This fixes problems with the VM allowing too many dirty pages because it
overestimates the number of available RAM in a node. In extreme cases you
can end up with all RAM filled with dirty pages which can lead to deadlocks
and other nasty behaviour.
This patch just tells the VM about the known holes from e820. Reserved
(like the kernel text or mem_map) is still not taken into account, but that
should be only a few percent error now.
Small detail is that the flat setup uses the NUMA free_area_init_node() now
too because it offers more flexibility.
(akpm: lotsa thanks to Martin for working this problem out)

This patch adds __cpuinit and __cpuinitdata sections that need to exist past
boot to support cpu hotplug.
Caveat: This is done *only* for EM64T CPU Hotplug support, on request from
Andi Kleen. Much of the generic hotplug code in kernel, and none of the other
archs that support CPU hotplug today, i386, ia64, ppc64, s390 and parisc dont
mark sections with __cpuinit, but only mark them as __devinit, and
__devinitdata.
If someone is motivated to change generic code, we need to make sure all
existing hotplug code does not break, on other arch's that dont use __cpuinit,
and __cpudevinit.

This patch adds in the necessary support for sparsemem such that x86-64
kernels may use sparsemem as an alternative to discontigmem for NUMA
kernels. Note that this does no preclude one from continuing to build NUMA
kernels using discontigmem, but merely allows the option to build NUMA
kernels with sparsemem.
Interestingly, the use of sparsemem in lieu of discontigmem in NUMA kernels
results in reduced text size for otherwise equivalent kernels as shown in
the example builds below:
text data bss dec hex filename
2371036 765884 1237108 4374028 42be0c vmlinux.discontig

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!
