[PATCH 6.1 6/6] lib/test_meminit: fix off-by-one error in test_pages()

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

 



6.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit efb78fa86e95 ("lib/test_meminit: allocate pages up to order
MAX_ORDER") works great in kernels 6.4 and newer thanks to commit
23baf831a32c ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely"), but for older
kernels, the loop is off by one, which causes crashes when the test
runs.

Fix this up by changing "<= MAX_ORDER" "< MAX_ORDER" to allow the test
to work properly for older kernel branches.
