Hi Scott,
I'm hitting this issue and Rick just pointed my at your patch. Any
chance we could get it upstream?
Thanks,
Anton
> On PowerPC, memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() uses a linear search to find
> an LMB matching the given address. This scales very poorly when there
> are many LMBs. The poor scaling cripples drmem_init() during boot:
> lmb_set_nid(), which calls memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(), is called for
> each LMB.
>
> If we index each LMB in an xarray by its base address we can achieve
> O(log n) search during memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(), which scales much
> better.
>
> For example, in the lab we have a 64TB P9 machine with 256MB LMBs.
> So, suring drmem_init() we instantiate 249854 LMBs. On a vanilla
> kernel it completes drmem_init() in ~35 seconds with a soft lockup
> trace. On the patched kernel it completes drmem_init() in ~0.5
> seconds.
