Systems with hotplug may provide an advisement value on what the memblock size should be. Probe this value when the rest of the configuration values are considered. The new heuristic is as follows 1) set_memory_block_size_order value if already set (cmdline param) 2) minimum block size if memory is less than large block limit 3) if no hotplug advice: Max block size if system is bare-metal, otherwise use end of memory alignment. 4) if hotplug advice: lesser of advice and end of memory alignment. Convert to cpu_feature_enabled() while at it.[1] [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241031103401.GBZyNdGQ-ZyXKyzC_z@fat_crate.local/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250127153405.3379117-3-gourry@gourry.net Signed-off-by: Gregory Price <gourry@gourry.net> Suggested-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Suggested-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Acked-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Mike Rapoport (Microsoft) <rppt@kernel.org> Acked-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Tested-by: Fan Ni <fan.ni@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Ira Weiny <ira.weiny@intel.com> Acked-by: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@suse.de> Cc: Alison Schofield <alison.schofield@intel.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Bruno Faccini <bfaccini@nvidia.com> Cc: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@intel.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Haibo Xu <haibo1.xu@intel.com> Cc: "H.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
