Subject: [PATCH V6 0/2] powerpc/dlpar: Correct display of hot-add/hot-remove CPUs and memory


On Power systems with shared configurations of CPUs and memory, there
are some issues with association of additional CPUs and memory to nodes
when hot-adding resources. These patches address some of those problems.

powerpc/hotplug: On systems like PowerPC which allow 'hot-add' of CPU
or memory resources, it may occur that the new resources are to be
inserted into nodes that were not used for these resources at bootup.
In the kernel, any node that is used must be defined and initialized
at boot. In order to meet both needs, this patch adds a new kernel
command line option (numnodes=<int>) for use by the PowerPC
architecture-specific code that defines the maximum number of nodes
that the kernel will ever need in its current hardware environment.
The boot code that initializes nodes for PowerPC will read this value
and use it to ensure that all of the desired nodes are setup in the
'node_possible_map', and elsewhere.

powerpc/numa: Correct the currently broken capability to set the
topology for shared CPUs in LPARs. At boot time for shared CPU
lpars, the topology for each shared CPU is set to node zero, however,
this is now updated correctly using the Virtual Processor Home Node
(VPHN) capabilities information provided by the pHyp. The VPHN handling
in Linux is disabled, if PRRN handling is present.

Sorry, that's a hack.

I thought you were going to use firmware properties to find the set of
possible nodes. Did that not work?

What changed between yesterday's V6 and this V6?

If you're going to resend, please bump the version number, we have tools
that parse the subject and version, and resending multiple times with
the same number breaks those.

It is an intermediate step pending the provision of the firmware properties
under discussion that were mentioned by Nathan Fontenot last week.

Inference based on the current set of firmware properties for associativity
is insufficient. That is partly the reason for the properties mentioned by
Nathan last week. The current firmware properties only cover what is known
at boot time. They do not cover expansions from DLPAR / hot-add operations
which can add up to everything else on the system.
