Subject: [PATCH] ARM: Fix page counting in mem_init and show_mem
Date: Mon, 22 Oct 2012 21:34:51 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1350956091-5276-1-git-send-email-spang@chromium.org> (raw)
The code in mem_init & show_mem to count page usage has two issues:
1. It assumes the memory map for a bank is contiguous. The sparsemem
memory model partitions the memory map into sections, which may not
be contiguous. They are usually contiguous due only to allocation
order. Avoid this by using pfn_to_page for each page.
If the memory map is not contiguous the pointer math works out
badly and crashes the system.
2. A memory bank may have holes. Some regions may be removed using
memblock_remove, and will not have valid page stucts. The code
should not access the page structs for such pages. Avoid this by
skipping pages that fail pfn_valid().
If the memory map has holes, the free & total page counts are
wrong.
