On ia64 my linux-next builds now report a bunch of messages like this:
put_kernel_page: page at 0xe000000005588000 not in reserved memory
put_kernel_page: page at 0xe000000005588000 not in reserved memory
put_kernel_page: page at 0xe000000005580000 not in reserved memory
put_kernel_page: page at 0xe000000005580000 not in reserved memory
put_kernel_page: page at 0xe000000005580000 not in reserved memory
put_kernel_page: page at 0xe000000005580000 not in reserved memory
the two different pages match up with two objects from the loaded kernel
that get mapped by arch/ia64/mm/init.c:setup_gate()
a000000101588000 D __start_gate_section
a000000101580000 D empty_zero_page
Should I look for a place to set the reserved bit on page structures for these
addresses? Or just remove the test and message in put_kernel_page()
[I added a debug "else" clause here - every caller passes in a page that is
not reserved]
if (!PageReserved(page))
printk(KERN_ERR "put_kernel_page: page at 0x%p not in
reserved memory\n",
page_address(page));
