While testing is still underway, a couple of feature requests have come in, and they are noted here for future reference and consideration as to what should be implemented: (1) The ability to mark memory as available at runtime but undesirable for bootmem allocations, and allocation semantics that respect the requests. (rmk) (2) Implement page stealing, finalizing calls to reserve_bootmem_*, and the ability to give multiple memory blocks to the allocator with separate calls prior to finalization. (wli) (3) Implement queries for automatic determination of ->node_start_paddr and ->node_low_pfn. (4) free pages in batches using free_pages() with order > 0 inside free_all_bootmem_core() for less call traffic Other suggestions are more than welcome. -- wli Wed Mar 20 15:37:45 PST 2002
