This is a PowerPC platform with following NUMA topology:
available: 2 nodes (0-1)
node 0 cpus:
node 0 size: 0 MB
node 0 free: 0 MB
node 1 cpus: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
node 1 size: 35247 MB
node 1 free: 30907 MB
node distances:
node 0 1
0: 10 40
1: 40 10
possible numa nodes: 0-31
This only happens with a mmotm patch "mm/memcontrol.c: allocate shrinker_map on
appropriate NUMA node" [2] which effectively calls kmalloc_node for each
possible node. SLUB however only allocates kmem_cache_node on online
N_NORMAL_MEMORY nodes, and relies on node_to_mem_node to return such valid node
for other nodes since commit a561ce00b09e ("slub: fall back to
node_to_mem_node() node if allocating on memoryless node"). This is however not
true in this configuration where the _node_numa_mem_ array is not initialized
for nodes 0 and 2-31, thus it contains zeroes and get_partial() ends up
accessing non-allocated kmem_cache_node.
A related issue was reported by Bharata (originally by Ramachandran) [3] where
a similar PowerPC configuration, but with mainline kernel without patch [2]
ends up allocating large amounts of pages by kmalloc-1k kmalloc-512. This seems
to have the same underlying issue with node_to_mem_node() not behaving as
expected, and might probably also lead to an infinite loop with
CONFIG_SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL [4].
This patch should fix both issues by not relying on node_to_mem_node() anymore
and instead simply falling back to NUMA_NO_NODE, when kmalloc_node(node) is
attempted for a node that's not online, or has no usable memory. The "usable
memory" condition is also changed from node_present_pages() to N_NORMAL_MEMORY
node state, as that is exactly the condition that SLUB uses to allocate
kmem_cache_node structures. The check in get_partial() is removed completely,
as the checks in ___slab_alloc() are now sufficient to prevent get_partial()
being reached with an invalid node.

Hi, after the RFC got positive test results from reporters, I'm resending
as a proper patch.
Thanks,

This reverts commit ad2c8144418c6a81cefe65379fd47bbe8344cef2.
The function node_to_mem_node() was introduced by that commit for use in SLUB
on systems with memoryless nodes, but it turned out to be unreliable on some
architectures/configurations and a simpler solution exists than fixing it up.
Thus the previous commit "mm, slub: prevent kmalloc_node crashes and memory
leaks" removed the only user of node_to_mem_node() and we can revert the commit
that introduced it.

Since the bugfix was fast-tracked to Linus, we can now reference it properly and
replace the second paragraph with:
Thus commit 0715e6c516f1 ("mm, slub: prevent kmalloc_node crashes and memory
leaks") removed the only user of node_to_mem_node() and we can revert the commit
that introduced the function.

> This patch should fix both issues by not relying on node_to_mem_node() anymore
