Subject: [PATCH 7.1 18/21] drivers/base/memory: set mem->altmap after successful device registration
Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2026 14:04:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260625125615.787752731@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260625125613.243729608@linuxfoundation.org>
7.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Georgi Djakov <georgi.djakov@oss.qualcomm.com>
commit a2b8d7827f48ee54a686cb80e4a1d0ff954ec42a upstream.
If __add_memory_block() fails at xa_store() (under memory pressure for
example), device_unregister() is called, which eventually triggers
memory_block_release() with mem->altmap still set, causing a
WARN_ON(mem->altmap). This was triggered by modifying virtio-mem driver.
Fix this by delaying the assignment of mem->altmap until after
__add_memory_block() has succeeded.
