[PATCH 3/5] Update device tree correctly for drconf memory add/remove

Nathan Fontenot nfont at austin.ibm.com
Sat Jun 21 07:32:55 EST 2008


Memory dlpar updates to correctly update the device tree when an lmb is
added/removed.  The main difference for memory under the
ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node is that dlpar adding or removing an
lmb only requires an update to the ibm,dynamic-memory property.  Previously,
entire nodes were added or removed when a lmb was dlpar added/removed.

The patch updates the /proc/ppc64/ofdt interface to recognize when the
ibm,dynamic-memory preoperty is updated and properly invokes the memory
hotplug notifier chain.

This also updates the pseries hotplug notifier to be able to gather information
for lmbs represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node and
have the lmbs added/removed.
