This enables module_alloc() to allocate huge page for 2MB+ requests.
To check the difference of this change, we need enable config
CONFIG_PTDUMP_DEBUGFS, and call module_alloc(2MB). Before the change,
/sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/kernel shows pte for this map. With the
change, /sys/kernel/debug/page_tables/ show pmd for thie map.

Testing Linus’ current master branch, Linux logs critical messages like below:
     BUG: Bad page state in process systemd-udevd  pfn:102e03
I bisected to your commit fac54e2bfb5 (x86/Kconfig: select
HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMALLOC with HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP).
Sorry, I forget to mention, that this is a 32-bit (i686) userspace,
but a 64-bit Linux kernel, so it might be the same issue as
mentioned in commit eed1fcee556f (x86: Disable
HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMALLOC on 32-bit x86), but didn’t fix the issue for
64-bit Linux kernel and 32-bit userspace.
I will look more into this tomorrow. To clarify, what is the 32-bit
user space that triggers this? Is it systemd-udevd? Is the systemd
also i686?

Yes, everything – also systemd – is i686. You can build a 32-bit VM image with grml-debootstrap [1]:

    sudo DEBOOTSTRAP=mmdebstrap ~/src/grml-debootstrap/grml-debootstrap --vm --vmfile --vmsize 3G --target /dev/shm/debian-32.img -r sid --arch i686 --filesystem ext4

Then run that with QEMU, but pass the 64-bit Linux kernel to QEMU directly with the switches `-kernel` and `-append`, or install the amd64 Linux kernel into the Debian VM image or the package created with `make bindeb-pkg` with `dpkg -i …`.

Thanks for these information!

I tried the following, but couldn't reproduce the issue.

sudo ./grml-debootstrap --vm --vmfile --vmsize 3G --target ../debian-32.img -r sid --arch i386 --filesystem ext4

Note: s/i686/i386/. Also I run this on Fedora, so I didn't specify DEBOOTSTRAP.

Then I run it with

qemu-system-x86_64 \
   -boot d ./debian-32.img -m 1024 -smp 4 \
   -kernel ./bzImage \
   -nographic -append 'root=/dev/sda1 ro console=ttyS0,115200'

The VM boots fine. The config being used is x86_64_defconfig +
CONFIG_DRM_FBDEV_EMULATION.

I wonder whether this is caused by different config or different image.
Could you please share your config?

Sorry, for leading you on the wrong path. I actually just wanted to help getting a 32-bit userspace set up quickly. I haven’t tried reproducing the issue in a VM, and used only the ASUS F2A85-M PRO.

Booting the system with `nomodeset`, I didn’t see the error. No idea if it’s related to framebuffer handling or specific to AMD graphics device.

PS: I couldn't figure out the root password of the image, --password
option of grml-debootstrap doesn't seem to work.

Hmm, I thought it’s asking you during install, but I haven’t done it in a while.


Kind regards,

Paul
