[PATCH: 007/017](RFC) Memory hotplug for new nodes v.3. (refresh NODE_DATA() for ia64)

From: Yasunori Goto
Date: Wed Mar 08 2006 - 08:44:23 EST


This is to refresh node_data[] array for ia64.
As I mentioned previous patches,
ia64 has copies of information of pgdat address array on each node
as per node data.

At v2, this function used stop_machine_run() to update them.
(I wished that they were copied safety as much as possible.)
But, in this patch, this arrays are just copied simply, and
set node_online_map bit after completion of pgdat initialization.

So, kernel must touch NODE_DATA() macro after checking
node_online_map(). (Current code has already done it.)
This is more simple way for just hot-add.....

Note : It will be problem when hot-remove will occur,
because, even if online_map bit is upset, kernel may
touch NODE_DATA() due to race condition. :-(
