hugetlb: increase hugepage reservations when using node-specific "hugepages=" cmdline
Commit
3dfd02c90037 ("hugetlb: increase number of reserving hugepages via
cmdline") raised the number of hugepages that can be reserved through the
boot-time "hugepages=" parameter for the non-node-specific case, but left
the node-specific form of the same parameter unchanged.
This patch extends the same optimization to node-specific reservations.
When HugeTLB vmemmap optimization (HVO) is enabled and a node cannot
satisfy the requested hugepages, the code first releases ordinary
struct-page memory of hugepages obtained from the buddy allocator,
allowing their struct-page memory to be reclaimed and reused for
additional hugepage reservations on that node.
This is particularly beneficial for configurations that require identical,
large per-node hugepage reservations. On a four-node, 384 GB x86 VM, the
patch raises the attainable 2 MiB hugepage reservation from under 374 GB
to more than 379 GB.
