The cause of the problem is as follows: 1. when cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory0/valid_zones, test_pages_in_a_zone() will be called. 2. test_pages_in_a_zone() finds the zone according to stat_pfn = 0. The smallest pfn of the numa node in the mips architecture is 128, and the page corresponding to the previous 0~127 pfn is not initialized (page->flags is 0xFFFFFFFF) 3. The nid and zonenum obtained using page_zone(pfn_to_page(0)) are out of bounds in the corresponding array, &NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->node_zones[page_zonenum(page)], access to the out-of-bounds zone member variables appear abnormal, resulting in Oops. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the page between 0 and the minimum pfn to prevent Oops from appearing.
