Subject: mm/hugetlb_cma: round up per_node before logging it
Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2026 23:33:53 +0900
When the user requests a total hugetlb CMA size without per-node
specification, hugetlb_cma_reserve() computes per_node from
hugetlb_cma_size and the number of nodes that have memory
per_node = DIV_ROUND_UP(hugetlb_cma_size,
nodes_weight(hugetlb_bootmem_nodes));
The reservation loop later computes
size = round_up(min(per_node, hugetlb_cma_size - reserved),
PAGE_SIZE << order);
So the actually reserved per_node size is multiple of (PAGE_SIZE <<
order), but the logged per_node is not rounded up, so it may be smaller
than the actual reserved size.
For example, as the existing comment describes, if a 3 GB area is
requested on a machine with 4 NUMA nodes that have memory, 1 GB is
allocated on the first three nodes, but the printed log is
hugetlb_cma: reserve 3072 MiB, up to 768 MiB per node
Round per_node up to (PAGE_SIZE << order) before logging so that the
printed log always matches the actual reserved size. No functional change
to the actual reservation size, as the following case analysis shows
1. remaining (hugetlb_cma_size - reserved) >= rounded per_node
- AS-IS: min() picks unrounded per_node;
round_up() returns rounded per_node
- TO-BE: min() picks rounded per_node;
round_up() returns rounded per_node (no-op)
2. remaining < unrounded per_node
- AS-IS: min() picks remaining;
round_up() returns round_up(remaining)
- TO-BE: min() picks remaining;
round_up() returns round_up(remaining)
3. unrounded per_node <= remaining < rounded per_node
- AS-IS: min() picks unrounded per_node;
round_up() returns rounded per_node
- TO-BE: min() picks remaining;
round_up() returns round_up(remaining) equals rounded per_node
