The patch titled Subject: mm/ia64: fix a memory block size bug has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-ia64-fix-a-memory-block-size-bug.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Jianguo Wu <wujian...@huawei.com> Subject: mm/ia64: fix a memory block size bug I found following definition in include/linux/memory.h, in my IA64 platform, SECTION_SIZE_BITS is equal to 32, and MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be 0. #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1 << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) Because MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE is int type and length of 32bits, so MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE(1 << 32) will will equal to 0. Actually when SECTION_SIZE_BITS >= 31, MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be wrong. This will cause wrong system memory infomation in sysfs. I think it should be: #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1UL << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) And "echo offline > memory0/state" will cause following call trace: kernel BUG at mm/memory_hotplug.c:885! sh[6455]: bugcheck! 0 [1] Pid: 6455, CPU 0, comm: sh psr : 0000101008526030 ifs : 8000000000000fa4 ip : [<a0000001008c40f0>] Not tainted (3.6.0-rc1) ip is at offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 unat: 0000000000000000 pfs : 0000000000000fa4 rsc : 0000000000000003 rnat: a0000001008f2d50 bsps: 0000000000000000 pr : 65519a96659a9565 ldrs: 0000000000000000 ccv : 0000010b9263f310 fpsr: 0009804c0270033f csd : 0000000000000000 ssd : 0000000000000000 b0 : a0000001008c40f0 b6 : a000000100473980 b7 : a0000001000106d0 f6 : 000000000000000000000 f7 : 1003e0000000085c9354c f8 : 1003e0044b82fa09b5a53 f9 : 1003e000000d65cd62abf f10 : 1003efd02efdec682803d f11 : 1003e0000000000000042 r1 : a00000010152c2e0 r2 : 0000000000006ada r3 : 000000000000fffe r8 : 0000000000000026 r9 : a00000010121cc18 r10 : a0000001013309f0 r11 : 65519a96659a19e9 r12 : e00000070a91fdf0 r13 : e00000070a910000 r14 : 0000000000006ada r15 : 0000000000004000 r16 : 000000006ad8356c r17 : a0000001019a525e r18 : 0000000000007fff r19 : 0000000000000000 r20 : 0000000000006ad6 r21 : 0000000000006ad6 r22 : a00000010133bec8 r23 : 0000000000006ad4 r24 : 0000000000000002 r25 : 8200000000260038 r26 : 00000000000004f9 r27 : 00000000000004f8 r28 : 000000000001cf98 r29 : 0000000000000038 r30 : a0000001019a5ae0 r31 : 000000000001cf60 Call Trace: [<a0000001000163e0>] show_stack+0x80/0xa0 sp=e00000070a91f9b0 bsp=e00000070a9115e0 [<a000000100016a40>] show_regs+0x640/0x920 sp=e00000070a91fb80 bsp=e00000070a911588 [<a000000100040590>] die+0x190/0x2c0 sp=e00000070a91fb90 bsp=e00000070a911548 [<a000000100040710>] die_if_kernel+0x50/0x80 sp=e00000070a91fb90 bsp=e00000070a911518 [<a0000001008f8030>] ia64_bad_break+0x3d0/0x6e0 sp=e00000070a91fb90 bsp=e00000070a9114f0 [<a00000010000c0c0>] ia64_native_leave_kernel+0x0/0x270 sp=e00000070a91fc20 bsp=e00000070a9114f0 [<a0000001008c40f0>] offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 sp=e00000070a91fdf0 bsp=e00000070a9113c8 [<a00000010022d580>] alloc_pages_current+0x180/0x2a0 sp=e00000070a91fe20 bsp=e00000070a9113a Signed-off-by: Jianguo Wu <wujian...@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Jiang Liu <jiang....@huawei.com> Cc: "Luck, Tony" <tony.l...@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Michal Hocko <mho...@suse.cz> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <a...@linux-foundation.org> --- include/linux/memory.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff -puN include/linux/memory.h~mm-ia64-fix-a-memory-block-size-bug include/linux/memory.h --- a/include/linux/memory.h~mm-ia64-fix-a-memory-block-size-bug +++ a/include/linux/memory.h @@ -19,7 +19,7 @@ #include <linux/compiler.h> #include <linux/mutex.h> -#define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1 << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) +#define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1UL << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) struct memory_block { unsigned long start_section_nr; _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from wujian...@huawei.com are origin.patch linux-next.patch mm-fix-up-zone-present-pages.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
