[PATCH] KVM: x86: Fix rmap allocation for very large memslots

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: "Maciej S. Szmigiero" <maciej.szmigiero@xxxxxxxxxx>

Commit 7661809d493b ("mm: don't allow oversized kvmalloc() calls") has
forbidden using kvmalloc() to make allocations larger than INT_MAX (2 GiB).

Unfortunately, adding a memslot exceeding 1 TiB in size will result in rmap
code trying to make an allocation exceeding this limit.
Besides failing this allocation, such operation will also trigger a
WARN_ON_ONCE() added by the aforementioned commit.

Since we probably still want to use kernel slab for small rmap allocations
let's only redirect such oversized allocations to vmalloc.

A possible alternative would be to add some kind of a __GFP_LARGE flag to
skip the INT_MAX check behind kvmalloc(), however this will impact the
common kernel memory allocation code, not just KVM.

Fixes: a7c3e901a4 ("mm: introduce kv[mz]alloc helpers")
