mm: move memtest under mm

2015-04-14T23:49:06+00:00

Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected it reserves them via memblock API. Since memblock API is widely used by other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world. This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and enables memtest feature for arm/arm64. It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform. This patch (of 6): There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other platforms might benefit from this feature too.

x86/mm: memblock: switch to use NUMA_NO_NODE

2014-01-22T00:19:47+00:00

Update X86 code to use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of MAX_NUMNODES while calling memblock APIs, because memblock API will be changed to use NUMA_NO_NODE and will produce warning during boot otherwise.

x86/memtest: Shorten time for tests

2013-02-18T08:28:42+00:00

By just reversing the order memtest is using the test patterns, an additional round to zero the memory is not necessary. This might save up to a second or even more for setups which are doing tests on every boot.

memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free_range() with generic ones

2011-07-14T18:47:53+00:00

Other than sanity check and debug message, the x86 specific version of memblock reserve/free functions are simple wrappers around the generic versions - memblock_reserve/free(). This patch adds debug messages with caller identification to the generic versions and replaces x86 specific ones and kills them. arch/x86/include/asm/memblock.h and arch/x86/mm/memblock.c are empty after this change and removed.

x86: Replace memblock_x86_find_in_range_size() with for_each_free_mem_range()

2011-07-14T18:47:48+00:00

setup_bios_corruption_check() and memtest do_one_pass() open code memblock free area iteration using memblock_x86_find_in_range_size(). Convert them to use for_each_free_mem_range() instead. This leaves memblock_x86_find_in_range_size() and memblock_x86_check_reserved_size() unused. Kill them.

x86, memblock: Replace e820_/_early string with memblock_

2010-08-27T18:13:47+00:00

x86: memtest: remove 64-bit division

2009-06-08T17:18:25+00:00

Using gcc 3.3.5 a "make allmodconfig" + "CONFIG_KVM=n" triggers a build error: arch/x86/mm/built-in.o(.init.text+0x43f7): In function `__change_page_attr': arch/x86/mm/pageattr.c:114: undefined reference to `__udivdi3' make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1 The culprit turned out to be a division in arch/x86/mm/memtest.c For more info see this thread: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=124416232620683 The patch entirely removes the division that caused the build error.
