From: David Daney <david.daney@xxxxxxxxxx>
On arm64 NUMA kernels we can pass "numa=off" on the command line to
disable NUMA. A side effect of this is that kmalloc_node() calls to
non-zero nodes will crash the system with an OOPS:
[ 0.000000] [<fffffc00081bba84>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0xa4/0xe68
[ 0.000000] [<fffffc00082163a8>] new_slab+0xd0/0x57c
[ 0.000000] [<fffffc000821879c>] ___slab_alloc+0x2e4/0x514
[ 0.000000] [<fffffc000823882c>] __slab_alloc+0x48/0x58
[ 0.000000] [<fffffc00082195a0>] __kmalloc_node+0xd0/0x2e0
[ 0.000000] [<fffffc00081119b8>] __irq_domain_add+0x7c/0x164
[ 0.000000] [<fffffc0008b75d30>] its_probe+0x784/0x81c
[ 0.000000] [<fffffc0008b75e10>] its_init+0x48/0x1b0
.
.
.
This is caused by code like this in kernel/irq/irqdomain.c
domain = kzalloc_node(sizeof(*domain) + (sizeof(unsigned int) * size),
GFP_KERNEL, of_node_to_nid(of_node));
When NUMA is disabled, the concept of a node is really undefined, so
of_node_to_nid() should unconditionally return NUMA_NO_NODE.
Add __of_force_no_numa() to allow of_node_to_nid() to be forced to
return NUMA_NO_NODE.
The follow on patch will call this new function from the arm64 numa
code.
