And ensure we don't hand out 0 as a valid allocation. We put the low limit at PAGE_SIZE arbitrarily. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This exposes memblock_debug and associated memblock_dbg() macro, along with memblock_can_resize so that x86 can use these when ported to use memblock Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

memblock_alloc_nid() used to fallback to allocating anywhere by using memblock_alloc() as a fallback. However, some of my previous patches limit memblock_alloc() to the region covered by MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE which is not quite what we want for memblock_alloc_try_nid(). So we fix it by explicitely using MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE. Not that so far only sparc uses memblock_alloc_nid() and it hasn't been updated to clamp the accessible zone yet. Thus the temporary "breakage" should have no effect. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The former is now strict, it will fail if it cannot honor the allocation within the node, while the later implements the previous semantic which falls back to allocating anywhere. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

We now provide a default (weak) implementation of memblock_nid_range() which uses the early_pfn_map[] if CONFIG_ARCH_POPULATES_NODE_MAP is set. Sparc still needs to use its own method due to the way the pages can be scattered between nodes. This implementation is inefficient due to our main algorithm and callback construct wanting to work on an ascending addresses bases while early_pfn_map[] would rather work with nid's (it's unsorted at that stage). But it should work and we can look into improving it subsequently, possibly using arch compile options to chose a different algorithm alltogether.

Some archs such as ARM want to avoid coalescing accross things such as the lowmem/highmem boundary or similar. This provides the option to control it via an arch callback for which a weak default is provided which always allows coalescing. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

When one of the array gets full, we resize it. After much thinking and a few iterations of that code, I went back to on-demand resizing using the (new) internal memblock_find_base() function, which is pretty much what Yinghai initially proposed, though there some differences in the details. To work this relies on the default alloc limit being set sensibly by the architecture. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Some shuffling is needed for doing array resize so we may as well put some sense into the ordering of the functions in the whole memblock.c file. No code change. Added some comments. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This will be used by the array resize code and might prove useful to some arch code as well at which point it can be made non-static. Also add comment as to why aligning size is important Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> --- v2. Fix loss of size alignment v3. Fix result code

This function will be used to locate a free area to put the new memblock arrays when attempting to resize them. memblock_alloc_region() is gone, the two callsites now call memblock_add_region().

Since we allocate one more than needed, why not do a bit of sanity checking here to ensure we don't walk past the end of the array ? Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This is in preparation for having resizable arrays. Note that we still allocate one more than needed, this is unchanged from the previous implementation. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

Right now, both the "memory" and "reserved" memblock_type structures have a "size" member. It represents the calculated memory size in the former case and is unused in the latter. This moves it out to the main memblock structure instead Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The RMA (RMO is a misnomer) is a concept specific to ppc64 (in fact server ppc64 though I hijack it on embedded ppc64 for similar purposes) and represents the area of memory that can be accessed in real mode (aka with MMU off), or on embedded, from the exception vectors (which is bolted in the TLB) which pretty much boils down to the same thing. We take that out of the generic MEMBLOCK data structure and move it into arch/powerpc where it belongs, renaming it to "RMA" while at it.

This introduce memblock.current_limit which is used to limit allocations from memblock_alloc() or memblock_alloc_base(..., MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE). The old MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE changes value from 0 to ~(u64)0 and can still be used with memblock_alloc_base() to allocate really anywhere. It is -no-longer- cropped to MEMBLOCK_REAL_LIMIT which disappears. Note to archs: I'm leaving the default limit to MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE. I strongly recommend that you ensure that you set an appropriate limit during boot in order to guarantee that an memblock_alloc() at any time results in something that is accessible with a simple __va(). The reason is that a subsequent patch will introduce the ability for the array to resize itself by reallocating itself. The MEMBLOCK core will honor the current limit when performing those allocations. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

The implementation is pretty much similar. There is a -small- added overhead by having another function call and the address shift. If that becomes a concern, I suppose we could actually have memblock itself expose a memblock_pfn_valid() which then ARM can use directly with an appropriate #define...

All callers expect a boolean result which is true if the region overlaps a reserved region. However, the implementation actually returns -1 if there is no overlap, and a region index (0 based) if there is. Make it behave as callers (and common sense) expect.
