Subject: [PATCH mm] mm: fix BUG with kvzalloc+GFP_ATOMIC
Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2022 12:38:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220923103858.26729-1-fw@strlen.de> (raw)

Martin Zaharinov reports BUG() in mm land for 5.19.10 kernel:
 kernel BUG at mm/vmalloc.c:2437!
 invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
 CPU: 28 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/28 Tainted: G        W  O      5.19.9 #1
 [..]
 RIP: 0010:__get_vm_area_node+0x120/0x130
  __vmalloc_node_range+0x96/0x1e0
  kvmalloc_node+0x92/0xb0
  bucket_table_alloc.isra.0+0x47/0x140
  rhashtable_try_insert+0x3a4/0x440
  rhashtable_insert_slow+0x1b/0x30
 [..]

bucket_table_alloc uses kvzallocGPF_ATOMIC).  If kmalloc fails, this now
falls through to vmalloc and hits code paths that assume GFP_KERNEL.

Revert the problematic change and stay with slab allocator.
