Robert Shteynfeld has reported a boot # failure. The boot log was not captured but his memory layout is as # follows: # # Early memory node ranges # node 1: [mem 0x0000000000001000-0x0000000000090fff] # node 1: [mem 0x0000000000100000-0x00000000dbdf8fff] # node 1: [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x0000001423ffffff] # node 0: [mem 0x0000001424000000-0x0000002023ffffff] # # This means that node0 starts in the middle of a memory section which is # also in node1. memmap_init_zone tries to initialize padding of a # section even when it is outside of the given pfn range because there are # code paths (e.g. memory hotplug) which assume that the full worth of # memory section is always initialized. # # In this particular case, though, such a range is already intialized and # most likely already managed by the page allocator. Scribbling over # those pages corrupts the internal state and likely blows up when any of # those pages gets used. # # Reported-by: Robert Shteynfeld # Fixes: 2830bf6f05fb ("mm, memory_hotplug: initialize struct pages for the full memory section") # Cc: stable@kernel.org # Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko # Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds # < /opt/cross/kisskb/br-xtensa-full-2016.08-613-ge98b4dd/bin/xtensa-linux-gcc --version # < /opt/cross/kisskb/br-xtensa-full-2016.08-613-ge98b4dd/bin/xtensa-linux-ld --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 4aa9fc2a435abe95a1e8d7f8c7b3d6356514b37a # < make -s -j 48 ARCH=xtensa O=/kisskb/build/linus_xtensa-allnoconfig_xtensa CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/br-xtensa-full-2016.08-613-ge98b4dd/bin/xtensa-linux- allnoconfig drivers/staging/mt7621-dts/Kconfig:4:warning: 'BUILTIN_DTB' has wrong type.
