Subject[PATCH v5 0/4] Address issues slowing persistent memory initialization
From
Date
This patch set is meant to be a v5 of my earlier submission with the same
title[1].

The main changes from the previous version are that I have added a new
patch to address an issue that had disabled deferred memory init on my
system due to recent config changes related to CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM. In
addition I dropped the original patches 4 and 5 from the previous set as
that is going to need to be a separate set of patches.

The main thing this patch set achieves is that it allows us to initialize
each node worth of persistent memory independently. As a result we reduce
page init time by about 2 minutes because instead of taking 30 to 40 seconds
per node and going through each node one at a time, we process all 4 nodes
in parallel in the case of a 12TB persistent memory setup spread evenly over
4 nodes.

Alexander Duyck (4):
mm: Remove now defunct NO_BOOTMEM from depends list for deferred init
mm: Provide kernel parameter to allow disabling page init poisoning
mm: Create non-atomic version of SetPageReserved for init use
mm: Defer ZONE_DEVICE page initialization to the point where we init pgmap
