Subject: [PATCH v2 2/5] mm/memory_hotplug: add 'online_type' argument to add_memory_driver_managed
Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2026 18:50:18 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260114235022.3437787-3-gourry@gourry.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260114235022.3437787-1-gourry@gourry.net>
Enable external callers to select how to online the memory rather than
implicitly depending on the system defauilt.
Refactor: Extract __add_memory_resource to take an explicit online type,
and update add_memory_resource to pass the system default.
Export mhp_get_default_online_type() and update existing callers of
add_memory_driver_managed to use it explicitly to make it clear what the
behavior of the function is.
dax_kmem and virtio_mem drivers were updated.
