We have this in move_freepages_block_isolate(): /* We're the starting block of a larger buddy */ if (PageBuddy(page) && buddy_order(page) > pageblock_order) { int mt = get_pfnblock_migratetype(page, pfn); int order = buddy_order(page); if (!is_migrate_isolate(mt)) __mod_zone_freepage_state(zone, -(1UL << order), mt); del_page_from_free_list(page, zone, order); And this config doesn't have hugetlb enabled, so: /* If huge pages are not used, group by MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES */ #define pageblock_order MAX_PAGE_ORDER If buddies were indeed >MAX_PAGE_ORDER, this would be an out-of-bounds access when delete updates the freelist count. Of course, buddies per definition cannot be larger than MAX_PAGE_ORDER. But the older gcc doesn't seem to realize this branch in this configuration is dead. Maybe we can help it out and make the impossible scenario a bit more explicit? Does this fixlet silence the warning? diff --git a/mm/page_alloc.c b/mm/page_alloc.c index efb2581ac142..4cdc356e73f6 100644 --- a/mm/page_alloc.c +++ b/mm/page_alloc.c @@ -1698,6 +1698,10 @@ bool move_freepages_block_isolate(struct zone *zone, struct page *page, NULL, NULL)) return false; + /* No splits needed if buddies can't span multiple blocks */ + if (pageblock_order == MAX_PAGE_ORDER) + goto move; + /* We're a tail block in a larger buddy */ pfn = find_large_buddy(start_pfn); if (pfn != start_pfn) { @@ -1725,7 +1729,7 @@ bool move_freepages_block_isolate(struct zone *zone, struct page *page, split_large_buddy(zone, page, pfn, order); return true; } - +move: mt = get_pfnblock_migratetype(page, start_pfn); nr_moved = move_freepages(zone, start_pfn, end_pfn, migratetype); if (!is_migrate_isolate(mt)) Zi Yan, does this look sane to you as well?
