Linux 6.11 Kernel's RISC-V Version to Feature Memory Hot Plugging

TapTechNews July 3rd news, according to Phoronix, the RISC-V version of the Linux 6.11 kernel will introduce the function of handling memory hot plugging.

The memory hot plugging function of Linux allows to increase/decrease the physical memory size when the system is running. In addition to being applicable to the RISC-V server that needs to plug in and out memory during operation, a more common use is to increase/decrease the memory allocated to the virtual machine when the virtual machine is running.
