[mm PATCH] memremap: Fix reference count for pgmap in devm_memremap_pages

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

 



In the earlier patch "mm: defer ZONE_DEVICE page initialization to the
point where we init pgmap" I had overlooked the reference count that was
being held per page on the pgmap. As a result on running the ndctl test
"create.sh" we would call into devm_memremap_pages_release and encounter
the following percpu reference count error and hang:
  WARNING: CPU: 30 PID: 0 at lib/percpu-refcount.c:155
  percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_rcu+0xf3/0x120

This patch addresses that by performing an update for all of the device
PFNs in a single call. In my testing this seems to resolve the issue while
still allowing us to retain the improvements seen in memory initialization.
