please check [PATCH] x86: only clear node_states for 64bit Nathan reported that | commit 73d60b7f747176dbdff826c4127d22e1fd3f9f74 | Author: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@xxxxxxxxxx> | Date: Tue Jun 16 15:33:00 2009 -0700 | | page-allocator: clear N_HIGH_MEMORY map before we set it again | | SRAT tables may contains nodes of very small size. The arch code may | decide to not activate such a node. However, currently the early boot | code sets N_HIGH_MEMORY for such nodes. These nodes therefore seem to be | active although these nodes have no present pages. | | For 64bit N_HIGH_MEMORY == N_NORMAL_MEMORY, so that works for 64 bit too the cpuset.mems cgroup attribute on an i386 kvm guest try to fix it by only clear node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] for 64bit only. and need to do save/restore for that in find_zone_movable_pfn Reported-by: Nathan Lynch <ntl@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@xxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/x86/mm/init_64.c | 2 ++ mm/page_alloc.c | 13 +++++++------ 2 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) Index: linux-2.6/arch/x86/mm/init_64.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/arch/x86/mm/init_64.c +++ linux-2.6/arch/x86/mm/init_64.c @@ -598,6 +598,8 @@ void __init paging_init(void) sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions(MAX_NUMNODES); sparse_init(); + /* clear the default setting with node 0 */ + nodes_clear(node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY]); free_area_init_nodes(max_zone_pfns); } Index: linux-2.6/mm/page_alloc.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/mm/page_alloc.c +++ linux-2.6/mm/page_alloc.c @@ -4038,6 +4038,8 @@ static void __init find_zone_movable_pfn int i, nid; unsigned long usable_startpfn; unsigned long kernelcore_node, kernelcore_remaining; + /* save the state before borrow the nodemask */ + nodemask_t saved_node_state = node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY]; unsigned long totalpages = early_calculate_totalpages(); int usable_nodes = nodes_weight(node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY]); @@ -4065,7 +4067,7 @@ static void __init find_zone_movable_pfn /* If kernelcore was not specified, there is no ZONE_MOVABLE */ if (!required_kernelcore) - return; + goto out; /* usable_startpfn is the lowest possible pfn ZONE_MOVABLE can be at */ find_usable_zone_for_movable(); @@ -4164,6 +4166,10 @@ restart: for (nid = 0; nid < MAX_NUMNODES; nid++) zone_movable_pfn[nid] = roundup(zone_movable_pfn[nid], MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES); + +out: + /* restore the node_state */ + node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] = saved_node_state; } /* Any regular memory on that node ? */ @@ -4248,11 +4254,6 @@ void __init free_area_init_nodes(unsigne early_node_map[i].start_pfn, early_node_map[i].end_pfn); - /* - * find_zone_movable_pfns_for_nodes/early_calculate_totalpages init - * that node_mask, clear it at first - */ - nodes_clear(node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY]); /* Initialise every node */ mminit_verify_pageflags_layout(); setup_nr_node_ids(); _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
