My guess would be that something went wrong in the linear map setup, but it won't hurt running with "memblock=debug" added to the kernel command line
to see if there is anything suspicious there.

Here is boot log on serial console with memblock=debug command line:

...

Do you need something more for debug?

Can you send me the 'vmlinux' used to generate the above Oops so that I can see exactly where we are in function mem_init().

And could you also try without CONFIG_HIGHMEM just in case.


I looked at the vmlinux you sent me, the problem is in the loop for highmem in mem_init(). It crashes in the call to free_highmem_page()

#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM
	{
		unsigned long pfn, highmem_mapnr;

		highmem_mapnr = lowmem_end_addr >> PAGE_SHIFT;
		for (pfn = highmem_mapnr; pfn < max_mapnr; ++pfn) {
			phys_addr_t paddr = (phys_addr_t)pfn << PAGE_SHIFT;
			struct page *page = pfn_to_page(pfn);
			if (!memblock_is_reserved(paddr))
				free_highmem_page(page);
		}
	}
#endif /* CONFIG_HIGHMEM */


As far as I can see in the memblock debug lines, the holes don't seem to be marked as reserved by memblock. So it is above valid ? Other architectures seem to do differently.

Can you try by replacing !memblock_is_reserved(paddr) by memblock_is_memory(paddr) ?

Thanks
Christophe
