From 05cf96398e1b6502f9e191291b715c7463c9d5dd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jianguo Wu Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2012 14:08:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm/ia64: fix a memory block size bug I found following definition in include/linux/memory.h, in my IA64 platform, SECTION_SIZE_BITS is equal to 32, and MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be 0. #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1 << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) Because MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE is int type and length of 32bits, so MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE(1 << 32) will will equal to 0. Actually when SECTION_SIZE_BITS >= 31, MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE will be wrong. This will cause wrong system memory infomation in sysfs. I think it should be: #define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1UL << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) And "echo offline > memory0/state" will cause following call trace: kernel BUG at mm/memory_hotplug.c:885! sh[6455]: bugcheck! 0 [1] Pid: 6455, CPU 0, comm: sh psr : 0000101008526030 ifs : 8000000000000fa4 ip : [] Not tainted (3.6.0-rc1) ip is at offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 Call Trace: show_stack+0x80/0xa0 show_regs+0x640/0x920 die+0x190/0x2c0 die_if_kernel+0x50/0x80 ia64_bad_break+0x3d0/0x6e0 ia64_native_leave_kernel+0x0/0x270 offline_pages+0x210/0xee0 alloc_pages_current+0x180/0x2a0 Signed-off-by: Jianguo Wu Signed-off-by: Jiang Liu Cc: "Luck, Tony" Reviewed-by: Michal Hocko Cc: Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- include/linux/memory.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/include/linux/memory.h b/include/linux/memory.h index 1ac7f6e405f9..ff9a9f8e0ed9 100644 --- a/include/linux/memory.h +++ b/include/linux/memory.h @@ -19,7 +19,7 @@ #include #include -#define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1 << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) +#define MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE (1UL << SECTION_SIZE_BITS) struct memory_block { unsigned long start_section_nr; -- 2.30.2
