Subject: [PATCH v9 1/3] kho: fix deferred initialization of scratch areas
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2026 14:25:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260423122538.140993-2-mclapinski@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260423122538.140993-1-mclapinski@google.com>
Currently, if CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is enabled,
kho_release_scratch() will initialize the struct pages and set migratetype
of KHO scratch. Unless the whole scratch fits below first_deferred_pfn,
some of that will be overwritten either by deferred_init_pages() or
memmap_init_reserved_range().
To fix it, make memmap_init_range(), deferred_init_memmap_chunk() and
__init_page_from_nid() recognize KHO scratch regions and set
migratetype of pageblocks in those regions to MIGRATE_CMA.
