[PATCH v2] arm64: mm: reserve hugetlb CMA after numa_init

From: Barry Song <hidden>
Date: 2020-06-16 22:21:11

hugetlb_cma_reserve() is called at the wrong place. numa_init has not been
done yet. so all reserved memory will be located at node0.

arm64_numa_init() calls numa_init() which initializes node_online_map
that gets used in hugetlb_cma_reserve() while allocating required CMA
size across online nodes.

Roman, would you like to answer this question? Have you found any problem if system

No, I was just following the code in arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c where all
related to PUD-sized pages is guarded by CONFIG_ARM64_4K_PAGES.
Actually I did all my testing on x86-64, I don't even have any arm hardware.

I'm totally fine with removing this #ifdef if it's not needed.

Thanks!

At this moment, I would suggest we should keep this "ifdef". Otherwise, hugetlb_cma_reserve() won't be really useful.

For example, while setting PAGE size to 64KB. I got this error in hugetlb_cma_reserve():
hugetlb_cma: cma area should be at least 4194304 MiB
This is absolutely unreasonable.

Supporting hugetlb_cma_reserve() for page sizes other than 4k is a different issue. 
It might be addressed in a separate patch later.
Thanks!

Maybe one for RaspberryPi 5, huh? ;)

But ok, I'll take your patch as-is and add a comment about NUMA.

No, I was just following the code in arch/arm64/mm/hugetlbpage.c where
all

related to PUD-sized pages is guarded by CONFIG_ARM64_4K_PAGES.
Actually I did all my testing on x86-64, I don't even have any arm
hardware.

I'm totally fine with removing this #ifdef if it's not needed.
At this moment, I would suggest we should keep this "ifdef". Otherwise,
hugetlb_cma_reserve() won't be really useful.

For example, while setting PAGE size to 64KB. I got this error in
hugetlb_cma_reserve():
quoted
hugetlb_cma: cma area should be at least 4194304 MiB
This is absolutely unreasonable.
Maybe one for RaspberryPi 5, huh? ;)

But ok, I'll take your patch as-is and add a comment about NUMA.
Have you seen the v3 with comment? I've already sent.
Thanks,

Will

Roman, would you like to answer this question? Have you found any
