[PATCH 1/2] mm, memory_hotplug: display allowed zones in the preferred ordering

From: Michal Hocko
Date: Thu Jun 29 2017 - 03:36:15 EST


From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>

Prior to "mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones
until online" we used to allow to change the valid zone types of a
memory block if it is adjacent to a different zone type. This fact was
reflected in memoryNN/valid_zones by the ordering of printed zones.
The first one was default (echo online > memoryNN/state) and the other
one could be onlined explicitly by online_{movable,kernel}. This
behavior was removed by the said patch and as such the ordering was
not all that important. In most cases a kernel zone would be default
anyway. The only exception is movable_node handled by "mm,
memory_hotplug: support movable_node for hotpluggable nodes".

Let's reintroduce this behavior again because later patch will remove
the zone overlap restriction and so user will be allowed to online
kernel resp. movable block regardless of its placement. Original
behavior will then become significant again because it would be
non-trivial for users to see what is the default zone to online into.

Implementation is really simple. Pull out zone selection out of
move_pfn_range into zone_for_pfn_range helper and use it in
show_valid_zones to display the zone for default onlining and then
both kernel and movable if they are allowed. Default online zone is not
duplicated.
