mm/vmalloc: do not adjust the search size for alignment overhead
We used to include an alignment overhead into a search length, in that case we guarantee that a found area will definitely fit after applying a specific alignment that user specifies. From the other hand we do not guarantee that an area has the lowest address if an alignment is >= PAGE_SIZE. It means that, when a user specifies a special alignment together with a range that corresponds to an exact requested size then an allocation will fail. This is what happens to KASAN, it wants the free block that exactly matches a specified range during onlining memory banks: [root@vm-0 fedora]# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory82/state [root@vm-0 fedora]# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory83/state [root@vm-0 fedora]# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory85/state [root@vm-0 fedora]# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory84/state vmap allocation for size 16777216 failed: use vmalloc=<size> to increase size bash: vmalloc: allocation failure: 16777216 bytes, mode:0x6000c0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0 CPU: 4 PID: 1644 Comm: bash Kdump: loaded Not tainted 4.18.0-339.el8.x86_64+debug #1 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.14.0-0-g155821a1990b-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x8e/0xd0 warn_alloc.cold.90+0x8a/0x1b2 ? zone_watermark_ok_safe+0x300/0x300 ? slab_free_freelist_hook+0x85/0x1a0 ? __get_vm_area_node+0x240/0x2c0 ? kfree+0xdd/0x570 ? kmem_cache_alloc_node_trace+0x157/0x230 ? notifier_call_chain+0x90/0x160 __vmalloc_node_range+0x465/0x840 ? mark_held_locks+0xb7/0x120 Fix it by making sure that find_vmap_lowest_match() returns lowest start address with any given alignment value, i.e. for alignments bigger then PAGE_SIZE the algorithm rolls back toward parent nodes checking right sub-trees if the most left free block did not fit due to alignment overhead.
