Actually, we should not be saving/restoring free pages during hibernation as there are several calls to mark_free_pages() that should exclude the free pages from the snapshot. I've tried to find why the fix that maps/unmaps a page to save it was required at the first place, but I could not find bug reports. The closest I've got is an email from Rafael that asked to update "hibernate: handle DEBUG_PAGEALLOC" patch: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pm/200802200133.44098.rjw@sisk.pl/ Could it be that safe_copy_page() tries to workaround a non-existent problem? -- Sincerely yours, Mike. _______________________________________________ linux-riscv mailing list linux-riscv@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-riscv
