[PATCH 23/49] memblock: NUMA allocate can now use early_pfn_map

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Tue Jul 06 2010 - 18:43:54 EST


From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

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.
