Now the size of CMA area for gigantic hugepages runtime allocation is balanced for all online nodes, but we also want to specify the size of CMA per-node, or only one node in some cases, which are similar with patch [1]. For example, on some multi-nodes systems, each node's memory can be different, allocating the same size of CMA for each node is not suitable for the low-memory nodes. Meanwhile some workloads like DPDK mentioned by Zhenguo in patch [1] only need hugepages in one node. On the other hand, we have some machines with multiple types of memory, like DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). On this system, we may want to specify all the hugepages only on DRAM node, or specify the proportion of DRAM node and PMEM node, to tuning the performance of the workloads. Thus this patch adds node format for 'hugetlb_cma' parameter to support specifying the size of CMA per-node. An example is as follows: hugetlb_cma=0:5G,2:5G which means allocating 5G size of CMA area on node 0 and node 2 respectively. And the users should use the node specific sysfs file to allocate the gigantic hugepages if specified the CMA size on that node.
