Temporarily disable hotplug memory support until issues (e.g. bug 1282833, bug 1273491, bug 1272742) are sorted out, then enable it:) +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1282833 +++
AFAICT only bug 1282833 is ppc64 specific, the other two appear to be x86 as well. Is that correct?
so now we have the initial state of hotplug RAM not being enabled on POWER (patch 49072 in the closest to-be-published release). From now on the bug tracks the required changes (or platform deliverables) to be able to enable it again and match x86 parity as soon as it is deemed stable
(In reply to David Gibson from comment #1) > AFAICT only bug 1282833 is ppc64 specific, the other two appear to be x86 as > well. Is that correct? right. however there are more situations, now QE run into bug 1285474, which I believe is the same thing about qemu memory hash tables being too large, just this time exposed on migration flow
we tested that on current 7.2, still problematic (see related bugs), so we are going to keep hotplug disabled for now until the root issue is resolved
moving to 4.0 as the bugs this one depends on are heavily in progress and won't be ready before RHEL 7.3
platform side is not ready yet, would need to push this out to 4.1
likely need to wait for 7.5
should work now with 7.5
