Message-ID: <20221003210932.99C8BC433D7@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/page_alloc: fix freeing static percpu memory
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-page_alloc-fix-freeing-static-percpu-memory.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm/page_alloc: fix freeing static percpu memory
Date: Fri, 16 Sep 2022 15:22:47 +0800

The size of struct per_cpu_zonestat can be 0 on !SMP && !NUMA.  In that
case, zone->per_cpu_zonestats will always equal to boot_zonestats.  But in
zone_pcp_reset(), zone->per_cpu_zonestats is freed via free_percpu()
directly without checking against boot_zonestats first.  boot_zonestats
will be released by free_percpu() unexpectedly.
