[PATCH 2/3] mm, memory_hotplug: drop CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE

From: Michal Hocko
Date: Mon May 29 2017 - 07:41:58 EST


From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>

20b2f52b73fe ("numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for movable-dedicated
node") has introduced CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE without a good explanation on
why it is actually useful. It makes a lot of sense to make movable node
semantic opt in but we already have that because the feature has to be
explicitly enabled on the kernel command line. A config option on top
only makes the configuration space larger without a good reason. It also
adds an additional ifdefery that pollutes the code. Just drop the config
option and make it de-facto always enabled. This shouldn't introduce any
change to the semantic.

- Allow a node to have only movable memory. Pages used by the kernel,
- such as direct mapping pages cannot be migrated. So the corresponding
- memory device cannot be hotplugged. This option allows the following
- two things:
- - When the system is booting, node full of hotpluggable memory can
- be arranged to have only movable memory so that the whole node can
- be hot-removed. (need movable_node boot option specified).
- - After the system is up, the option allows users to online all the
- memory of a node as movable memory so that the whole node can be
- hot-removed.
-
- Users who don't use the memory hotplug feature are fine with this
- option on since they don't specify movable_node boot option or they
- don't online memory as movable.
-
- Say Y here if you want to hotplug a whole node.
- Say N here if you want kernel to use memory on all nodes evenly.
-
