[PATCH] Hibernation: Fix mark_nosave_pages()

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

 



Hi Len,

The following patch fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9966 .

Although the problem has been there for quite some time (since before 2.6.22,
apparently), it would be good to have in 2.6.25, because it may fix booting
problems on the affected systems.

Please note that it doesn't modify the code behavior on the systems which are
not affected by bug #9966 .

Thanks,
Rafael

There is a problem in the hibernation code that triggers on some NUMA
systems on which pfn_valid() returns 'true' for some PFNs that don't
belong to any zone.  Namely, there is a BUG_ON() in
memory_bm_find_bit() that triggers for PFNs not belonging to any
zone and passing the pfn_valid() test.  On the affected systems it
triggers when we mark PFNs reported by the platform as not saveable,
because the PFNs in question belong to a region mapped directly using
iorepam() (i.e. the ACPI data area) and they pass the pfn_valid()
test.

Modify memory_bm_find_bit() so that it returns an error if given PFN
doesn't belong to any zone instead of crashing the kernel and ignore
the result returned by it in mark_nosave_pages(), while marking the
"nosave" memory regions.

This doesn't affect the hibernation functionality, as we won't touch
the PFNs in question anyway.
