I think this is happening because, now in mm_core_early_init(), the
order of initialization between hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() and
free_area_init() is reversed. Since free_area_init() -> sparse_init()
is responsible for setting SECTIONS and vmemmap area.
Then in alloc_bootmem() (from hugetlb_bootmem_alloc() path), it uses
virt_to_phys(m)...
/*
* For pre-HVO to work correctly, pages need to be on
* the list for the node they were actually allocated
* from. That node may be different in the case of
* fallback by memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw. So,
* extract the actual node first.
*/
if (m)
listnode =
early_pfn_to_nid(PHYS_PFN(virt_to_phys(m)));
... virt_to_phys on powerpc uses:
static inline unsigned long virt_to_phys(const volatile void * address)
{
WARN_ON(IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL) && !virt_addr_valid(address));
return __pa((unsigned long)address);
}
#define virt_addr_valid(vaddr) ({ \
unsigned long _addr = (unsigned long)vaddr; \
_addr >= PAGE_OFFSET && _addr < (unsigned long)high_memory && \
pfn_valid(virt_to_pfn((void *)_addr)); \
})
I think the above warning in dmesg gets printed from above WARN_ON, i.e.
because pfn_valid() is false, since we haven't done sparse_init() yet.
So, what I wanted to check was - do you think instead of virt_to_phys(), we
could directly use __pa() here() in mm/hugetlb.c, since these are
memblock alloc addresses? i.e.:
// alloc_bootmem():
- listnode = early_pfn_to_nid(PHYS_PFN(virt_to_phys(m)));
+ listnode = early_pfn_to_nid(PHYS_PFN(__pa(m)));
// __alloc_bootmem_huge_page():
- memblock_reserved_mark_noinit(virt_to_phys((void *)m + PAGE_SIZE),
+ memblock_reserved_mark_noinit(__pa((void *)m + PAGE_SIZE),
Thoughts?
