Do we need yet another check here? IOW, do we need to be this paranoid? > + if (magic == SECTION_INFO || magic == MIX_SECTION_INFO) > + put_page_bootmem(page); > + else > + WARN_ON(1); Lately, some people have been complaining about using WARN_ON as some systems come with panic_on_warn set. I would say that in this case it does not matter much as if the vmemmap pages are not either SECTION_INFO or MIX_SECTION_INFO it means that a larger corruption happened elsewhere. But I think I would align the checks here. It does not make sense to me to only scream under DEBUG_VM if page's refcount differs from 2, and have a WARN_ON if the page we are trying to free was not used for the memmap array. Both things imply a corruption, so I would set the checks under the same configurations. -- Oscar Salvador SUSE L3
