Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] x86/amd_node: Avoid divide by zero on virtualized systems
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 17:48:02 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260825214805.39148-2-jason.andryuk@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260825214805.39148-1-jason.andryuk@amd.com>
On a virtualized system, the number of nodes does not have a
relationship to the number of roots. A Xen PVH dom0 can calculate
roots_per_node as 0, which crashes with a divide by zero in:
if (count++ % roots_per_node)
The issue is seen with Xen, but it could affect other systems.
Change roots_per_node == 0 to 1 to allow the system to boot. Print a
warning when this is performed for non-virtualized systems.
Fixes: 0a4b61d9c2e4 ("x86/amd_node: Fix AMD root device caching")

v3:
Add newline to warning.
R-b: Yazen
v2:
Print as a warning instead of error
Use "!" instead of "== 0".
X86_FEATURE_XENPV is only for PV, but this is observed with a PVH dom0.
