Subject: [PATCH v11 1/4] mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: disable hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap when struct page crosses page boundaries
Date: Thu, 12 May 2022 12:11:39 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220512041142.39501-2-songmuchun@bytedance.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220512041142.39501-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com>

If the size of "struct page" is not the power of two but with the feature
of minimizing overhead of struct page associated with each HugeTLB is
enabled, then the vmemmap pages of HugeTLB will be corrupted after
remapping (panic is about to happen in theory).  But this only exists when
!CONFIG_MEMCG && !CONFIG_SLUB on x86_64.  However, it is not a conventional
configuration nowadays.  So it is not a real word issue, just the result
of a code review.

But we cannot prevent anyone from configuring that combined configure.
This hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap should be disable in this case to fix this
issue.
