[PATCH] mm/alloc: fallback to first node if the wanted node offline

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

 



During my test on some AMD machine, with kexec -l nr_cpus=x option, the
kernel failed to bootup, because some node's data struct can not be allocated,
e.g, on x86, initialized by init_cpu_to_node()->init_memory_less_node(). But
device->numa_node info is used as preferred_nid param for
__alloc_pages_nodemask(), which causes NULL reference
  ac->zonelist = node_zonelist(preferred_nid, gfp_mask);
This patch tries to fix the issue by falling back to the first online node,
when encountering such corner case.

Notes about the crashing info:
-1. kexec -l with nr_cpus=4
-2. system info
  NUMA node0 CPU(s):     0,8,16,24
  NUMA node1 CPU(s):     2,10,18,26
  NUMA node2 CPU(s):     4,12,20,28
  NUMA node3 CPU(s):     6,14,22,30
  NUMA node4 CPU(s):     1,9,17,25
  NUMA node5 CPU(s):     3,11,19,27
  NUMA node6 CPU(s):     5,13,21,29
  NUMA node7 CPU(s):     7,15,23,31
-3. panic stack

    Revert "ACPI/PCI: Pay attention to device-specific _PXM node values"

This bug is covered and not triggered on my test AMD machine.
But it should still exist since dev->numa_node info can be set by other
method on other archs when using nr_cpus param
