Re: [Discontig-devel] Cleanup of NUMA support in ACPI

Hi Tak,

please find attached the attempt to fill in the /* FIXME */ comments.
This is the first patch needed for the splitted DISCONTIGMEM on IA64.

Phoney SRAT/SLIT are gone, but maybe we should add them again for
testing on non-NUMA machines.

ACPI-dependent NUMA initialization stuff and
others (like SGI or phoney_srat/slit).

SGI definitely uses SLIT/SRAT, too.

I added include/asm-ia64/mmzone.h and mmzone_dig_numa.h to this patch,
such that it now makes sense alone and can also be used for other NUMA
experiments, even without discontigmem.

Does it look reasonable to you? Is it something we might want to have
in base-line kernels (at least for IA64)?

Thanks,
best regards,
Erich
