Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH pve-kernel] add patch: vhost: bump max_mem_regions to 509
Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2020 19:36:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201115183609.3022395-1-aderumier@odiso.com> (raw)

Currently, default value is 64, so qemu is limited to 64 hotplug dimm

original patch from 2015
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/kvm/patch/1438180163-275465-3-git-send-email-imammedo@redhat.com/

We have discusted about this in 2016 (At this time some optimisations patches were missing)
https://lists.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2016-December/024502.html

Also, this fix this bugzilla
https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1426

Wolfgang proposed to have explicit dimm module management, it could be great,
but for now this patch is fixed the current implemlentation.
