Well I think that works for pfn_valid, but it is confusing the mem_cgroup code. I think because you end up with multiple memory regions after creating the holes. Earlier memory management code saw one memory region. And because this comes after paging_init(), all of the memory ends up in the kernel linear mapping which is something we were trying to avoid. > > > Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000008 > > pgd = fffffe03d5890000 > > [00000008] *pgd=00000043d5ae0003, *pud=00000043d5ae0003, *pmd=00000043d5ae0003, *pte=0000000000000000 > > Internal error: Oops: 96000007 [#1] SMP > > Modules linked in: > > CPU: 0 PID: 107 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 3.18.0-rc5+ #8 > > Hardware name: APM X-Gene Mustang board (DT) > > task: fffffe03d5770000 ti: fffffe03dd300000 task.ti: fffffe03dd300000 > > PC is at mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat+0x40/0x110 > > LR is at mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat+0x40/0x110 > > pc : [<fffffe00001ec34c>] lr : [<fffffe00001ec34c>] pstate: 60000145 > > sp : fffffe03dd303a80 > > x29: fffffe03dd303a80 x28: 000000000000ffe0 > > x27: fffffdfef0f56bc0 x26: 0000000000000000 > > x25: 000003ff89b80000 x24: 0000000000000000 > > x23: fffffe03dd303ae8 x22: fffffe03dd303ae7 > > x21: 0000000000000000 x20: fffffe03d58a0420 > > x19: fffffdfef0004500 x18: 0000000000000000 > > x17: 000003ff89ba40dc x16: 000003ff89bbff90 > > x15: 000003ff89ba3b44 x14: 31313030343d6e66 > > x13: 7020303035343030 x12: 0000000000000006 > > x11: 0000000000000000 x10: 0000000000000186 > > x9 : 0000000000000187 x8 : 3030306665666466 > > x7 : fffffe0001041c18 x6 : 00000000000000ff > > x5 : fffffe00004aaf20 x4 : fffffe00004b209c > > x3 : 0000000000000000 x2 : 0000000000000000 > > x1 : fffffe0000f6a5d0 x0 : 0000000000000000 > > > > Process modprobe (pid: 107, stack limit = 0xfffffe03dd300058) > > Stack: (0xfffffe03dd303a80 to 0xfffffe03dd304000) > > 3a80: dd303ac0 fffffe03 001c3e20 fffffe00 f0004500 fffffdfe d58a0420 fffffe03 > > 3aa0: f0004500 fffffdfe d58f4dc0 fffffe03 00000000 00000000 001b62d4 fffffe00 > > 3ac0: dd303af0 fffffe03 001b9984 fffffe00 01140f53 00200040 d58a0420 fffffe03 > > 3ae0: d5880000 fffffe03 d58a0420 fffffe03 dd303b40 fffffe03 001b9c4c fffffe00 > > 3b00: d58a0420 fffffe03 89b80000 000003ff f0f56bf0 fffffdfe 00000000 00000000 > > ... > > 3fa0: 89b907b7 000003ff 89bbf000 000003ff 89bc16e8 000003ff eb753490 000003ff > > 3fc0: 89b91f9c 000003ff eb753490 000003ff 89b91fac 000003ff 20000000 00000000 > > 3fe0: 00000000 00000000 ffffffff ffffffff aaaaaaaa aaaaaaaa aaaaaaaa aaaaaaaa > > Call trace: > > [<fffffe00001ec34c>] mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat+0x40/0x110 > > [<fffffe00001c3e1c>] page_add_file_rmap+0x24/0x80 > > [<fffffe00001b9980>] do_set_pte+0x108/0x19c > > [<fffffe00001b9c48>] do_read_fault.isra.93+0x234/0x28c > > [<fffffe00001ba57c>] handle_mm_fault+0x488/0xd64 > > [<fffffe00000a0ea0>] do_page_fault+0x224/0x358 > > [<fffffe0000090128>] do_mem_abort+0x4c/0xb0 > > Exception stack(0xfffffe03dd303e30 to 0xfffffe03dd303f50) > > 3e20: 00000000 00000000 89bbf000 000003ff > > 3e40: ffffffff ffffffff 89b91fac 000003ff 01043280 fffffe00 00000002 00000000 > > 3e60: dd303e70 fffffe03 008ce3a0 fffffe00 dd303e90 fffffe03 001c0400 fffffe00 > > 3e80: d5880000 fffffe03 000cbc60 fffffe00 eb753610 000003ff 00092fdc fffffe00 > > 3ea0: 00000000 00000000 89bbf000 000003ff ffffffff ffffffff 89ba4654 000003ff > > 3ec0: 80000000 00000000 d5521480 fffffe03 89bc16e8 000003ff 89bc1a40 000003ff > > 3ee0: 00000004 00000000 89b80000 000003ff fefefeff fefefefe 00000000 00000000 > > 3f00: 0000000f 00000000 89bc1028 000003ff 89ba7000 000003ff 0000079c 00000000 > > 3f20: 00400000 00000000 ffff0000 ffffffff 004038a0 00000000 00010000 00000000 > > 3f40: 89ba3c1c 000003ff 89ba3b44 000003ff > > Code: b9405835 35000275 aa1303e0 9400065c (f9400413) > > > > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
