Subject: [merged] cma-dont-quit-at-first-error-when-activating-reserved-areas.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2020 14:02:18 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200812210218.Bei0iztuR%akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)
The patch titled
Subject: cma: don't quit at first error when activating reserved areas
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
cma-dont-quit-at-first-error-when-activating-reserved-areas.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz@oracle.com>
Subject: cma: don't quit at first error when activating reserved areas
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.
