Linux kernel source tree

Currently there are known potential issues for balloon and hot-add on ARM64: * Unballoon requests from Hyper-V should only unballoon ranges that are guest page size aligned, otherwise guests cannot handle because it's impossible to partially free a page. This is a problem when guest page size > 4096 bytes. * Memory hot-add requests from Hyper-V should provide the NUMA node id of the added ranges or ARM64 should have a functional memory_add_physaddr_to_nid(), otherwise the node id is missing for add_memory(). These issues require discussions on design and implementation. In the meanwhile, post_status() is working and essential to guest monitoring. Therefore instead of disabling the entire hv_balloon driver, the ballooning (when page size > 4096 bytes) and hot-add are disabled accordingly for now. Once the issues are fixed, they can be re-enable in these cases.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
