Ultimately it would be nice to avoid poisoning huge pages. Generally we know the location of the poison to a cache line granularity (but sometimes only to a 4K granularity) ... and it is rather inefficient to take an entire 2M page out of service. With 1G pages things would be even worse!! It also makes life harder for applications that would like to catch the SIGBUS and try to take their own recovery actions. Losing more data than they really need to will make it less likely that they can do something to work around the loss. Has anyone looked at how hard it might be to have the code in memory-failure.c break up a huge page and only poison the 4K that needs to be taken out of service? -Tony -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
