From c898faf91b3ec6b0f6efa35831b3984fa3331db0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Date: Tue, 5 May 2009 17:28:56 -0400 Subject: x86: 46 bit physical address support on 64 bits Extend the maximum addressable memory on x86-64 from 2^44 to 2^46 bytes. This requires some shuffling around of the vmalloc and virtual memmap memory areas, to keep them away from the direct mapping of up to 64TB of physical memory. This patch also introduces a guard hole between the vmalloc area and the virtual memory map space. There's really no good reason why we wouldn't have a guard hole there.

Historically, x86-64 had an architecture-specific method for memory hotplug whereby it scanned the SRAT for physical memory ranges that could be potentially used for memory hot-add later. By reserving those ranges without physical memory, the memmap would be allocated and left dormant until needed. This depended on the DISCONTIG memory model which has been removed so the code implementing HOTPLUG_RESERVE is now dead. This patch removes the dead code used by MEMORY_HOTPLUG_RESERVE.
