Description: Write an integer containing the size in bytes of the memory
you want removed from each NUMA node to this file - it must be
aligned to the memblock size. This amount of RAM will be removed
- from the kernel mappings and the following debugfs files will be
- created. This can only be successfully done once per boot. Once
- memory is successfully removed from each node, the following
- files are created.
+ from each NUMA node in the kernel mappings and the following
+ debugfs files will be created. Once memory is successfully
+ removed from each node, the following files are created. To
+ re-add memory to the kernel, echo 0 into this file (it will be
+ automatically onlined).
