My guess is that it might have something to do with the zero-based kernel
virtual address space on s390/s390x.
I also guess that the trail would have been:
cmd_kmem
dump_memory_nodes
dump_mem_sections
section_mem_map_addr
read_mem_section
where read_mem_section() can legitimately return if the addr
passed is not kernel virtual address of a mem_section structure:
char *
read_mem_section(ulong addr)
{
if (!IS_KVADDR(addr))
return 0;
readmem(addr, KVADDR, vt->mem_section, SIZE(mem_section),
"memory section", FAULT_ON_ERROR);
return vt->mem_section;
}
But the s390/s390x implementation of IS_KVADDR() accepts a kernel
virtual address of zero. It tries to read it and craps out.
Right. Looks like we should check for NULL pointer instead of using
IS_KVADDR(). Since the mem_sec array is static, it is initialized with
zeroes. When I change the check, everything works fine.
Great -- the patch looks fine. Queued for the next release.
Thanks Michael,
Dave
What about the following patch...
