* lib/test_free_pages.c: pass a pointer to virt_to_page()Linus Walleij2022-07-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a recent change to the Arm architecture with the end goal of removing highmem we need to convert virt_to_phys() and virt_to_pfn() to static inline functions. This will make them strongly typed. However since virt_to_* is always implemented as macros they have become polymorphic and accept both (void *) and e.g. unsigned long as arguments. Other functions such as virt_to_page() simply wrap virt_to_pfn() and get affected indirectly. To be able to proceed, patch mm to use (void *) as argument to affected functions in all instances. This patch (of 5): A pointer into virtual memory is represented by a (void *) not an u32, so the compiler warns: lib/test_free_pages.c:20:50: warning: passing argument 1 of 'virt_to_pfn' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion] Fix this with an explicit cast.

* lib/test_free_pages.c: add basic progress indicatorsGeert Uytterhoeven2020-12-151-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The test module to check that free_pages() does not leak memory does not provide any feedback whatsoever its state or progress, but may take some time on slow machines. Add the printing of messages upon starting each phase of the test, and upon completion.

* mm/page_alloc.c: fix freeing non-compound pagesMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)2020-10-131-0/+42
Here is a very rare race which leaks memory: Page P0 is allocated to the page cache. Page P1 is free. Thread A Thread B Thread C find_get_entry(): xas_load() returns P0 Removes P0 from page cache P0 finds its buddy P1 alloc_pages(GFP_KERNEL, 1) returns P0 P0 has refcount 1 page_cache_get_speculative(P0) P0 has refcount 2 __free_pages(P0) P0 has refcount 1 put_page(P0) P1 is not freed Fix this by freeing all the pages in __free_pages() that won't be freed by the call to put_page(). It's usually not a good idea to split a page, but this is a very unlikely scenario.
