x86, numa: For each node, register the memory blocks actually used
Russ reported SGI UV is broken recently. He said: | The SRAT table shows that memory range is spread over two nodes. | | SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 100000000-800000000 | SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 800000000-1000000000 | SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 1000000000-1080000000 | |Previously, the kernel early_node_map[] would show three entries |with the proper node. | |[ 0.000000] 0: 0x00100000 -> 0x00800000 |[ 0.000000] 1: 0x00800000 -> 0x01000000 |[ 0.000000] 0: 0x01000000 -> 0x01080000 | |The problem is recent community kernel early_node_map[] shows |only two entries with the node 0 entry overlapping the node 1 |entry. | | 0: 0x00100000 -> 0x01080000 | 1: 0x00800000 -> 0x01000000 After looking at the changelog, Found out that it has been broken for a while by following commit |commit 8716273caef7f55f39fe4fc6c69c5f9f197f41f1 |Author: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> |Date: Fri Sep 25 15:20:04 2009 -0700 | | x86: Export srat physical topology Before that commit, register_active_regions() is called for every SRAT memory entry right away. Use nodememblk_range[] instead of nodes[] in order to make sure we capture the actual memory blocks registered with each node. nodes[] contains an extended range which spans all memory regions associated with a node, but that does not mean that all the memory in between are included.
