[PATCH 1/4] sparsemem base: teach discontig about sparse ranges

From: Dave Hansen
Date: Mon Mar 14 2005 - 16:18:58 EST



discontig.c has some assumptions that mem_map[]s inside of a node are
contiguous. Teach it to make sure that each region that it's brining
online is actually made up of valid ranges of ram.
