[PATCH v3 5/5] mm/page_alloc: Introduce memhotplug version of free_area_init_core

From: osalvador
Date: Wed Jul 25 2018 - 18:02:10 EST


From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@xxxxxxx>

Currently, we call free_area_init_node() from the memhotplug path.
In there, we set some pgdat's fields, and call calculate_node_totalpages().
calculate_node_totalpages() calculates the # of pages the node has.

Since the node is either new, or we are re-using it, the zones belonging to
this node should not have any pages, so there is no point to calculate this now.

Actually, we set the values to 0 later on with the calls to:

reset_node_managed_pages()
reset_node_present_pages()

The # of pages per zone and the # of pages per zone will be calculated later on
when onlining the pages:

online_pages()->move_pfn_range()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->resize_zone_range()
online_pages()->move_pfn_range()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->resize_pgdat_range()

This introduces the memhotplug version of free_area_init_core and makes
hotadd_new_pgdat use it.

This function will only be called from memhotplug path:

hotadd_new_pgdat()->free_area_init_core_hotplug().

free_area_init_core_hotplug() performs only a subset of the actions that
free_area_init_core_hotplug() does.
