Actually I was hoping we could get this fixed before the broken code would be merged. Could you please make sure the bug fix gets included as soon as possible? Right now booting a kernel with any defconfig on s390 will crash because of this. I will also change the fake NUMA code on s390, since it doesn't make sense to have possible but not online nodes (in this case). > > commit 59b8d4f1f5d26e4ca92172ff6dcd1492cdb39613 > > Author: Theodore Ts'o > > Date: Wed Jul 27 23:30:25 2016 -0400 > > > > random: use for_each_online_node() to iterate over NUMA nodes > > > > This fixes a crash on s390 with fake NUMA enabled. > > > > Reported-by: Heiko Carstens > > Fixes: 1e7f583af67b ("random: make /dev/urandom scalable for silly userspace programs") > > Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o > > > > diff --git a/drivers/char/random.c b/drivers/char/random.c > > index 8d0af74..7f06224 100644 > > --- a/drivers/char/random.c > > +++ b/drivers/char/random.c > > @@ -1668,13 +1668,12 @@ static int rand_initialize(void) > > #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA > > pool = kmalloc(num_nodes * sizeof(void *), > > GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_NOFAIL|__GFP_ZERO); > > - for (i=0; i < num_nodes; i++) { > > + for_each_online_node(i) { > > crng = kmalloc_node(sizeof(struct crng_state), > > GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL, i); > > spin_lock_init(&crng->lock); > > crng_initialize(crng); > > pool[i] = crng; > > - > > } > > mb(); > > crng_node_pool = pool; > > >
