[PATCH 3/9] mm: drop page_initialized check from get_nid_for_pfn

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

 



From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@xxxxxxxx>

c04fc586c1a4 ("mm: show node to memory section relationship with
symlinks in sysfs") has added means to export memblock<->node
association into the sysfs. It has also introduced get_nid_for_pfn
which is a rather confusing counterpart of pfn_to_nid which checks also
whether the pfn page is already initialized (page_initialized).  This
is done by checking page::lru != NULL which doesn't make any sense at
all. Nothing in this path really relies on the lru list being used or
initialized. Just remove it because this will become a problem with
later patches.

Thanks to Reza Arbab for testing which revealed this to be a problem
