Ah, I need to clarify what I want to say.

With compaction, it's helpful, but you can't get contiguous memory larger
than MAX_ORDER, I think. To get memory larger than MAX_ORDER on demand,
memory hot-plug code has almost all necessary things.

you may able to add
# echo 0xa0000000-0xa80000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/cma

to get contiguous isolated memory.

BTW, just curious...the memory for cma need not to be saved at
hibernation ? Or drivers has to write its own hibernation ops by driver suspend
udev or some ?



Thanks,
