Subject: [ 36/46] module: put modules in list much earlier.
Date: Thu, 24 Jan 2013 13:13:14 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130124211149.244643977@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130124211135.862755794@linuxfoundation.org>
3.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
commit 1fb9341ac34825aa40354e74d9a2c69df7d2c304 upstream.
Prarit's excellent bug report:
> In recent Fedora releases (F17 & F18) some users have reported seeing
> messages similar to
>
> [ 15.478160] kvm: Could not allocate 304 bytes percpu data
> [ 15.478174] PERCPU: allocation failed, size=304 align=32, alloc from
> reserved chunk failed
>
> during system boot. In some cases, users have also reported seeing this

> What is happening is systemd is loading an instance of the kvm module for

> currently allocates the modules percpu data area prior to checking to see

Now we have a new state MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, we can insert the
module into the list (and thus guarantee its uniqueness) before we
allocate the per-cpu region.
