Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/4] efi/libstub: Decouple memory bitmap from the unaccepted table
Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2025 11:57:50 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251125175753.1428857-2-prsampat@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251125175753.1428857-1-prsampat@amd.com>
Memory hotplug in secure environments requires the unaccepted memory
bitmap to grow as new memory is added. Currently, the bitmap is
implemented as a flexible array member at the end of struct
efi_unaccepted_memory, which is reserved by memblock at boot and cannot
be resized without reallocating the entire structure.
Replace the flexible array member with a pointer. This allows the bitmap
to be allocated and managed independently from the unaccepted memory
table, enabling dynamic growth to support memory hotplug.
