Subject: [[PATCH]] mips: Fix switch to NO_BOOTMEM for SGI-IP27/loongons3 NUMA

Commit bcec54bf3118 ("mips: switch to NO_BOOTMEM") broke SGI-IP27
and NUMA enabled loongson3 by doing memblock_set_current_limit()
before max_low_pfn has been evaluated. Both platforms need to do the
memblock_set_current_limit() in platform specific code. For
consistency the call to memblock_set_current_limit() is moved
to the common bootmem_init(), where max_low_pfn is calculated
for non NUMA enabled platforms.

As far as I can tell loongsoon3 initially sets max_low_pfn in
node_mem_init(0) and then re-evaluates it in paging_init(). So it seems
that in this case the limit would be wrong for a system with more than one
node, but it would be set to some usable value.

As for SGI-IP27, the initialization of max_low_pfn as late as in
paging_init() seems to be broken because it's value is used in
arch_mem_init() and in finalize_initrd() anyway.

AFAIU, both platforms set max_low_pfn to last available pfn, so it seems we
can simply do

max_low_pfn = PFN_PHYS(memblock_end_of_DRAM())

in the prom_meminit() function for both platforms and drop the loop
evaluating max_low_pfn in paging_init().

well, the patch is tested on real hardware and the first caller of
a memblock_alloc* function is in a function called by free_area_init_nodes().

sounds like a better plan. I'll prepare a new patch.

Then, apparently, I've missed something else.
The Onyx2 I worked on is dead for a couple of years now ;-)

Should have been PHYS_PFN, sorry.

Hi,

It seems the patch below can solve many problems after switched to NO_BOOTMEM, because the memory allocation behavior is more similar as before.

Yes, this should work.
Still, simplifying the max_low_pfn evaluation has it's value regardless.
