Subject: [PATCH 4.4 29/37] stm class: Use vmalloc for the master map
Date: Tue, 5 Jun 2018 19:01:34 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180605170110.588135089@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180605170108.884872354@linuxfoundation.org>
4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com>
commit b5e2ced9bf81393034072dd4d372f6b430bc1f0a upstream.
Fengguang is running into a warning from the buddy allocator:
> swapper/0: page allocation failure: order:9, mode:0x14040c0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null)
> CPU: 1 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.17.0-rc1 #262
> Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-1 04/01/2014
> Call Trace:
...
> __kmalloc+0x14b/0x180: ____cache_alloc at mm/slab.c:3127
> stm_register_device+0xf3/0x5c0: stm_register_device at drivers/hwtracing/stm/core.c:695
...
Which is basically a result of the stm class trying to allocate ~512kB
for the dummy_stm with its default parameters. There's no reason, however,
for it not to be vmalloc()ed instead, which is what this patch does.
