Subject: [PATCH] mm: avoid endless recursion in dump_page()
Date: Thu, 8 Sep 2016 11:21:37 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160908082137.131076-1-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com> (raw)
dump_page() uses page_mapcount() to get mapcount of the page.
page_mapcount() has VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageSlab(page)) as mapcount doesn't
make sense for slab pages and the field in struct page used for other
information.
It leads to recursion if dump_page() called for slub page and DEBUG_VM
is enabled:
dump_page() -> page_mapcount() -> VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() -> dump_page -> ...
Let's avoid calling page_mapcount() for slab pages in dump_page().
