If we take an unhandled fault in the kernel, we call show_pte() to dump the {PGDP,PGD,PUD,PMD,PTE} values for the corresponding page table walk, where the PGDP value is virt_to_phys(mm->pgd). The boot-time and runtime kernel page tables, init_pg_dir and swapper_pg_dir respectively, are kernel symbols. Thus, it is not valid to call virt_to_phys() on either of these, though we'll do so if we take a fault on a TTBR1 address. When CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL is not selected, virt_to_phys() will silently fix this up. However, when CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL is selected, this results in splats as below. Depending on when these occur, they can happen to suppress information needed to debug the original unhandled fault, such as the backtrace: | Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff7fffec73cf0f | Mem abort info: | ESR = 0x96000004 | EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits | SET = 0, FnV = 0 | EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 | Data abort info: | ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000004 | CM = 0, WnR = 0 | ------------[ cut here ]------------ | virt_to_phys used for non-linear address: 00000000102c9dbe (swapper_pg_dir+0x0/0x1000) | WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 7558 at arch/arm64/mm/physaddr.c:15 __virt_to_phys+0xe0/0x170 arch/arm64/mm/physaddr.c:12 | Kernel panic - not syncing: panic_on_warn set ... | SMP: stopping secondary CPUs | Dumping ftrace buffer: | (ftrace buffer empty) | Kernel Offset: disabled | CPU features: 0x0002,23000438 | Memory Limit: none | Rebooting in 1 seconds.. We can avoid this by ensuring that we call __pa_symbol() for init_mm.pgd, as this will always be a kernel symbol. As the dumped {PGD,PUD,PMD,PTE} values are the raw values from the relevant entries we don't need to handle these specially.
