From 0d805ee70a69eabd38160dc199e183ac2f13fe4b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zhenzhong Duan Date: Wed, 27 Sep 2017 02:41:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] xen/mmu: Call xen_cleanhighmap() with 4MB aligned for page tables mapping When bootup a PVM guest with large memory(Ex.240GB), XEN provided initial mapping overlaps with kernel module virtual space. When mapping in this space is cleared by xen_cleanhighmap(), in certain case there could be an 2MB mapping left. This is due to XEN initialize 4MB aligned mapping but xen_cleanhighmap() finish at 2MB boundary. When module loading is just on top of the 2MB space, got below warning: WARNING: at mm/vmalloc.c:106 vmap_pte_range+0x14e/0x190() Call Trace: [] warn_alloc_failed+0xf3/0x160 [] __vmalloc_area_node+0x182/0x1c0 [] ? module_alloc_update_bounds+0x1e/0x80 [] __vmalloc_node_range+0xa7/0x110 [] ? module_alloc_update_bounds+0x1e/0x80 [] module_alloc+0x64/0x70 [] ? module_alloc_update_bounds+0x1e/0x80 [] module_alloc_update_bounds+0x1e/0x80 [] move_module+0x27/0x150 [] layout_and_allocate+0x120/0x1b0 [] load_module+0x78/0x640 [] ? security_file_permission+0x8b/0x90 [] sys_init_module+0x62/0x1e0 [] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Then the mapping of 2MB is cleared, finally oops when the page in that space is accessed.

The unnecessory call of xen_cleanhighmap() in DEBUG mode is also removed. -v2: add comment about XEN alignment from Juergen.
