[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.6 48/79] net/mlx5: Fix failing fw tracer allocation on s390

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

 



From: Niklas Schnelle <schnelle@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit a019b36123aec9700b21ae0724710f62928a8bc1 ]

On s390 FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER is 9 instead of 11, thus a larger kzalloc()
allocation as done for the firmware tracer will always fail.

Looking at mlx5_fw_tracer_save_trace(), it is actually the driver itself
that copies the debug data into the trace array and there is no need for
the allocation to be contiguous in physical memory. We can therefor use
kvzalloc() instead of kzalloc() and get rid of the large contiguous
allcoation.

Fixes: f53aaa31cce7 ("net/mlx5: FW tracer, implement tracer logic")
