A bisect pointed to the breakage beginning with commit 9fee28baa601 ("powerpc:
implement the new page table range API").
Analysis of the oops pointed to a struct page with a corrupted
compound_head being loaded via page_folio() -> _compound_head() in
hash_page_do_lazy_icache().
The access by the mpic code is to an MMIO address, so the expectation
is that the struct page for that address would be initialised by
init_unavailable_range(), as pointed out by Aneesh.
Instrumentation showed that was not the case, which eventually lead to
the realisation that pfn_valid() was returning false for that address,
causing the struct page to not be initialised.
Because the system is using FLATMEM, the version of pfn_valid() in
memory_model.h is used:
static inline int pfn_valid(unsigned long pfn)
{
...
return pfn >= pfn_offset && (pfn - pfn_offset) < max_mapnr;
}
Which relies on max_mapnr being initialised. Early in boot max_mapnr is
zero meaning no PFNs are valid.
max_mapnr is initialised in mem_init() called via:
start_kernel()
mm_core_init() # init/main.c:928
mem_init()
But that is too late for the usage in init_unavailable_range() called via:
start_kernel()
setup_arch() # init/main.c:893
paging_init()
free_area_init()
init_unavailable_range()
Although max_mapnr is currently set in mem_init(), the value is actually
already available much earlier, as soon as mem_topology_setup() has
completed, which is also before paging_init() is called. So move the
initialisation there, which causes paging_init() to correctly initialise
the struct page and fixes the bug.
This bug seems to have been lurking for years, but went unnoticed
because the pre-folio code was inspecting the uninitialised page->flags
but not dereferencing it.
Thanks to Erhard and Aneesh for help debugging.
