But in pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), the local variable dyn_size could be zero caused by below code: if (ai->reserved_size) { schunk->free_size = ai->reserved_size; pcpu_reserved_chunk = schunk; pcpu_reserved_chunk_limit = ai->static_size + ai->reserved_size; } else { schunk->free_size = dyn_size; dyn_size = 0; /* dynamic area covered */ } So if no reserved_size dyn_size is assigned to zero, and is checked to see if dchunk need be created in below code: /* init dynamic chunk if necessary */ if (dyn_size) { ... } I think v1 patch is a little ugly, so made a v2 like this: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ >From 0f22f04878f0779e4d9e66ae24f9bfc5321782c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Baoquan He <bhe@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 12 Jul 2015 19:33:26 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] perpuc: check pcpu_first_chunk and pcpu_reserved_chunk to avoid handling them twice In pcpu_setup_first_chunk() pcpu_reserved_chunk is assigned to point to static chunk. While pcpu_first_chunk is got from below code: pcpu_first_chunk = dchunk ?: schunk; Then it could point to static chunk too if dynamic chunk doesn't exist. In this patch add a new helper function percpu_install_map() to replace the old map of chunk with newly allocated map. Then call percpu_install_map() separately in percpu_init_late() if pcpu_first_chunk and pcpu_reserved_chunk exist.
