The patch titled pci device ensure sysdata initialised v3 has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is pci-device-ensure-sysdata-initialised-v3.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: pci device ensure sysdata initialised v3 From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> We have been seeing panic's on NUMA systems in pci_call_probe() in 2.6.19-rc1-mm1 and later. This is related to the changes introduced in the commit below: [x86, PCI] Switch pci_bus::sysdata from NUMA node integer to a pointer 0a247a58fc3e2ecfc17654301033e8b8d08df2a2 In this change the sysdata has changed from directly representing a value (the node number in NUMA) to a pointer to a structure. However, it seems that we do not always initialise this sysdata before we probe the device. Prior to the changes above the node was defaulted to 'NULL' allocating the devices to node 0 unconditionally. This patch adds a default sysdata entry (pci_default_sysdata), this is then used where 'NULL' was used previously. pci_default_sysdata defaults the node to unknown (-1). This is a more accurate assignment, mirroring the value returned where no topology support is provided and no locality information is available. There are only two uses of this value in the affected architectures (x86, x86_64) and generic code: 1) in x86_64, dma_alloc_pages() looks up the node in order to allocate node local memory. Here if the node is invalid we will default to the first online node. Behaviour here should be unchanged. 2) in generic, pci_call_probe() looks up the node in order to restrict execution of the probe on the card local node, to favor node local allocation. Where this is unknown previously we would force execution (and thereby allocation) to node 0, this is arguably wrong and using -1 releases this restriction. In an ideal world we should be supplying a sysdata for the appropriate node where it is known. Where it is not known defaulting to -1 seems a better course, and would help us where node 0 is short of memory.
