From a16cee10c7ab994546ed98d9abfd4de74050124a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wen Congyang Date: Mon, 8 Oct 2012 16:33:58 -0700 Subject: memory-hotplug: preparation to notify memory block's state at memory hot remove remove_memory() is called in two cases: 1. echo offline >/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXX/state 2. hot remove a memory device In the 1st case, the memory block's state is changed and the notification that memory block's state changed is sent to userland after calling remove_memory(). So user can notice memory block is changed. But in the 2nd case, the memory block's state is not changed and the notification is not also sent to userspcae even if calling remove_memory(). So user cannot notice memory block is changed. For adding the notification at memory hot remove, the patch just prepare as follows: 1st case uses offline_pages() for offlining memory. 2nd case uses remove_memory() for offlining memory and changing memory block's state and notifing the information. The patch does not implement notification to remove_memory().
