Subject: [PATCH v2] powerpc/mm: Fix growth direction for hugepages mmaps with slice
Date: Tue, 9 Jan 2018 11:18:10 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180109101810.2471D6C6CF@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
An application running with libhugetlbfs fails to allocate
additional pages to HEAP due to the hugemap being done
inconditionally as topdown mapping:
mmap(0x10080000, 1572864, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0) = 0x73e80000
[...]
mmap(0x74000000, 1048576, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0x180000) = 0x73d80000
munmap(0x73d80000, 1048576) = 0
[...]
mmap(0x74000000, 1572864, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0x180000) = 0x73d00000
munmap(0x73d00000, 1572864) = 0
[...]
mmap(0x74000000, 1572864, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0x180000) = 0x73d00000
munmap(0x73d00000, 1572864) = 0
[...]
As one can see from the above strace log, mmap() allocates further
pages below the initial one.
This patch fixes it by taking into account MAP_GROWSDOWN flag.
