And when VMEMMAP is disabled, we need 22 additional bits to identify the sparse memory sections in page->flags as well: > CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT=2 > # CONFIG_ARCH_USES_PG_UNCACHED is not set > CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE=y > CONFIG_IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING=y > > #define MAX_NR_ZONES 3 > #define ZONES_SHIFT 2 > #define MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS 52 > #define SECTION_SIZE_BITS 30 > #define SECTIONS_WIDTH 22 ^^^ Those we get back with VMEMMAP enabled. So for configs for which the check is intended, it passes. We just need to make it conditional to those. --- >From 1d24635a6c7cd395bad5c29a3b9e5d2e98d9ab84 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2018 10:18:23 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: fix vmemmap BUILD_BUG_ON() triggering on !vmemmap setups Arnd reports the following arm64 randconfig build error with the PSI patches that add another page flag: /git/arm-soc/arch/arm64/mm/init.c: In function 'mem_init': /git/arm-soc/include/linux/compiler.h:357:38: error: call to '__compiletime_assert_618' declared with attribute error: BUILD_BUG_ON failed: sizeof(struct page) > (1 << STRUCT_PAGE_MAX_SHIFT) The additional page flag causes other information stored in page->flags to get bumped into their own struct page member: #if SECTIONS_WIDTH+ZONES_WIDTH+NODES_SHIFT+LAST_CPUPID_SHIFT <= BITS_PER_LONG - NR_PAGEFLAGS #define LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH LAST_CPUPID_SHIFT #else #define LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH 0 #endif #if defined(CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING) && LAST_CPUPID_WIDTH == 0 #define LAST_CPUPID_NOT_IN_PAGE_FLAGS #endif which in turn causes the struct page size to exceed the size set in STRUCT_PAGE_MAX_SHIFT. This value is an an estimate used to size the VMEMMAP page array according to address space and struct page size. However, the check is performed - and triggers here - on a !VMEMMAP config, which consumes an additional 22 page bits for the sparse section id. When VMEMMAP is enabled, those bits are returned, cpupid doesn't need its own member, and the page passes the VMEMMAP check. Restrict that check to the situation it was meant to check: that we are sizing the VMEMMAP page array correctly.
