[RFC PATCH 1/1] mem-hotplug: Reset node managed pages when hot-adding a new pgdat.

[RFC PATCH 1/1] mem-hotplug: Reset node managed pages when hot-adding a new pgdat.

[Tang Chen]

In free_area_init_core(), zone->managed_pages is set to an approximate
value for lowmem, and will be adjusted when the bootmem allocator frees
pages into the buddy system. But free_area_init_core() is also called
by hotadd_new_pgdat() when hot-adding memory. As a result, zone->managed_pages
of the newly added node's pgdat is set to an approximate value in the
very beginning. Even if the memory on that node has node been onlined,
/sys/device/system/node/nodeXXX/meminfo has wrong value.

hot-add node2 (memory not onlined)
cat /sys/device/system/node/node2/meminfo
Node 2 MemTotal:       33554432 kB
Node 2 MemFree:               0 kB
Node 2 MemUsed:        33554432 kB
Node 2 Active:                0 kB

This patch fixes this problem by reset node managed pages to 0 after hot-adding
a new node.

1. Move reset_managed_pages_done from reset_node_managed_pages() to reset_all_zones_managed_pages()
2. Make reset_node_managed_pages() non-static
3. Call reset_node_managed_pages() in hotadd_new_pgdat() after pgdat is initialized

How about it?

	 * zone->managed_pages is set to an approximate value in
	 * free_area_init_core(), even though all memory of the pgdat
	 * is offline. So reset it to 0.

When you send updated patch, please remove RFC from the subject.
