[PATCH v1] mm/balloon_compaction: avoid duplicate page removal

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

 



Fixes: 418a3ab1e778 (mm/balloon_compaction: List interfaces)

A #GP is reported in the guest when requesting balloon inflation via
virtio-balloon. The reason is that the virtio-balloon driver has
removed the page from its internal page list (via balloon_page_pop),
but balloon_page_enqueue_one also calls "list_del"  to do the removal.
So remove the list_del in balloon_page_enqueue_one, and have the callers
do the page removal from their own page lists.
