So it will find the lower bits of pmd set and the pmd_bad check throws error. Infact the current code will never take the free_hugepd_range call at all because it will clear the pmd if it find a hugepd pointer. Fix this by clearing bad pmd only if it is not a hugepd pointer. This is regression introduced by e2b3d202d1dba8f3546ed28224ce485bc50010be "powerpc: Switch 16GB and 16MB explicit hugepages to a different page table format" Reported-by: Scott Wood Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V --- arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c b/arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c index f2f01fd..5555778 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c @@ -536,8 +536,14 @@ static void hugetlb_free_pmd_range(struct mmu_gather *tlb, pud_t *pud, do { pmd = pmd_offset(pud, addr); next = pmd_addr_end(addr, end); - if (pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd)) + if (!is_hugepd(pmd)) { + /* + * if it is not hugepd pointer, we should already find + * it cleared. + */ + WARN_ON(!pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd)); continue; + } #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_FSL_BOOK3E /* * Increment next by the size of the huge mapping since -- 1.8.1.2
