Subject: [PATCH] cma: don't quit at first error when activating reserved areas
Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2020 09:31:23 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200730163123.6451-1-mike.kravetz@oracle.com> (raw)

The routine cma_init_reserved_areas is designed to activate all
reserved cma areas.  It quits when it first encounters an error.
This can leave some areas in a state where they are reserved but
not activated.  There is no feedback to code which performed the
reservation.  Attempting to allocate memory from areas in such a
state will result in a BUG.

Modify cma_init_reserved_areas to always attempt to activate all
areas.  The called routine, cma_activate_area is responsible for
leaving the area in a valid state.  No one is making active use
of returned error codes, so change the routine to void.

How to reproduce:  This example uses kernelcore, hugetlb and cma
as an easy way to reproduce.  However, this is a more general cma
issue.

Two node x86 VM 16GB total, 8GB per node
Kernel command line parameters, kernelcore=4G hugetlb_cma=8G
