[BUG Fix Patch 4/6] Bug fix: Do not free page split from hugepage one by one.

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

 



When we split a larger page into smaller ones, we should not free them
one by one because only the _count of the first page struct makes sense.
Otherwise, the kernel will panic.

So fulfill the unused small pages with 0xFD, and when the whole larger
page is fulfilled with 0xFD, free the whole larger page.

The call trace is like the following:
