	check all


Andrew,

this is a FYI about ongoing work on 32-bit NUMA loose ends by Yinghai Lu 
(which has been sub-par for an eternity). The commits below are in 
tip/x86/mpparse and they touch mm/page_alloc.c's shrink_active_range() 
function.

This is an API that is only used by x86 - we could move it to arch/x86 
but i think it makes general sense so it's fine in mm/page_alloc.c. It 
should not impact any other MM work in a material way. Would be nice to 
carry these changes in x86/mpparse - they are still being tested.

Can you see any problem with these commits and the approach?

	Ingo

Subject: [PATCH] mm, x86: shrink_active_range() should check all

Now we are using register_e820_active_regions() instead of
add_active_range() directly. So end_pfn could be different between the
value in early_node_map to node_end_pfn.

So we need to make shrink_active_range() smarter.

shrink_active_range() is a generic MM function in mm/page_alloc.c but
it is only used on 32-bit x86. Should we move it back to some file in
arch/x86?

Subject: [PATCH] x86: replace shrink pages with remove_active_ranges

in case we have kva before ramdisk on node, we still need to use
those ranges.

This fixes 32-bit NUMA crashes with less than 960 MB of RAM.
