The "mem" boot option can result in many unexpected consequences. This patch attempts to prevent boot hangs which have been experienced on T4-4 and T5-8. Basically the boot loader allocates vmlinuz and initrd higher in available OBP physical memory. For example, on a 2Tb T5-8 it isn't possible to boot with mem=20G. The patch utilizes memblock to avoid reserved regions and trim memory which is only free. Other improvements are possible for a multi-node machine. This is a snippet of the boot log with mem=20G on T5-8 with the patch applied: MEMBLOCK configuration: <- before memory reduction memory size = 0x1ffad6ce000 reserved size = 0xa1adf44 memory.cnt = 0xb memory[0x0] [0x00000030400000-0x00003fdde47fff], 0x3fada48000 bytes memory[0x1] [0x00003fdde4e000-0x00003fdde4ffff], 0x2000 bytes memory[0x2] [0x00080000000000-0x00083fffffffff], 0x4000000000 bytes memory[0x3] [0x00100000000000-0x00103fffffffff], 0x4000000000 bytes memory[0x4] [0x00180000000000-0x00183fffffffff], 0x4000000000 bytes memory[0x5] [0x00200000000000-0x00203fffffffff], 0x4000000000 bytes memory[0x6] [0x00280000000000-0x00283fffffffff], 0x4000000000 bytes memory[0x7] [0x00300000000000-0x00303fffffffff], 0x4000000000 bytes memory[0x8] [0x00380000000000-0x00383fffc71fff], 0x3fffc72000 bytes memory[0x9] [0x00383fffc92000-0x00383fffca1fff], 0x10000 bytes memory[0xa] [0x00383fffcb4000-0x00383fffcb5fff], 0x2000 bytes reserved.cnt = 0x2 reserved[0x0] [0x00380000000000-0x0038000117e7f8], 0x117e7f9 bytes reserved[0x1] [0x00380004000000-0x0038000d02f74a], 0x902f74b bytes ...
