powerpc/mm: fix a warning when a cache is common to PGD and hugepages
While implementing TLB miss HW assistance on the 8xx, the following warning was encountered: [ 423.732965] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 345 at mm/slub.c:2412 ___slab_alloc.constprop.30+0x26c/0x46c [ 423.733033] CPU: 0 PID: 345 Comm: mmap Not tainted 4.18.0-rc8-00664-g2dfff9121c55 #671 [ 423.733075] NIP: c0108f90 LR: c0109ad0 CTR: 00000004 [ 423.733121] REGS: c455bba0 TRAP: 0700 Not tainted (4.18.0-rc8-00664-g2dfff9121c55) [ 423.733147] MSR: 00021032 <ME,IR,DR,RI> CR: 24224848 XER: 20000000 [ 423.733319] [ 423.733319] GPR00: c0109ad0 c455bc50 c4521910 c60053c0 007080c0 c0011b34 c7fa41e0 c455be30 [ 423.733319] GPR08: 00000001 c00103a0 c7fa41e0 c49afcc4 24282842 10018840 c079b37c 00000040 [ 423.733319] GPR16: 73f00000 00210d00 00000000 00000001 c455a000 00000100 00000200 c455a000 [ 423.733319] GPR24: c60053c0 c0011b34 007080c0 c455a000 c455a000 c7fa41e0 00000000 00009032 [ 423.734190] NIP [c0108f90] ___slab_alloc.constprop.30+0x26c/0x46c [ 423.734257] LR [c0109ad0] kmem_cache_alloc+0x210/0x23c [ 423.734283] Call Trace: [ 423.734326] [c455bc50] [00000100] 0x100 (unreliable) [ 423.734430] [c455bcc0] [c0109ad0] kmem_cache_alloc+0x210/0x23c [ 423.734543] [c455bcf0] [c0011b34] huge_pte_alloc+0xc0/0x1dc [ 423.734633] [c455bd20] [c01044dc] hugetlb_fault+0x408/0x48c [ 423.734720] [c455bdb0] [c0104b20] follow_hugetlb_page+0x14c/0x44c [ 423.734826] [c455be10] [c00e8e54] __get_user_pages+0x1c4/0x3dc [ 423.734919] [c455be80] [c00e9924] __mm_populate+0xac/0x140 [ 423.735020] [c455bec0] [c00db14c] vm_mmap_pgoff+0xb4/0xb8 [ 423.735127] [c455bf00] [c00f27c0] ksys_mmap_pgoff+0xcc/0x1fc [ 423.735222] [c455bf40] [c000e0f8] ret_from_syscall+0x0/0x38 [ 423.735271] Instruction dump: [ 423.735321] 7cbf482e 38fd0008 7fa6eb78 7fc4f378 4bfff5dd 7fe3fb78 4bfffe24 81370010 [ 423.735536] 71280004 41a2ff88 4840c571 4bffff80 <0fe00000> 4bfffeb8 81340010 712a0004 [ 423.735757] ---[ end trace e9b222919a470790 ]--- This warning occurs when calling kmem_cache_zalloc() on a cache having a constructor. In this case it happens because PGD cache and 512k hugepte cache are the same size (4k). While a cache with constructor is created for the PGD, hugepages create cache without constructor and uses kmem_cache_zalloc(). As both expect a cache with the same size, the hugepages reuse the cache created for PGD, hence the conflict. In order to avoid this conflict, this patch: - modifies pgtable_cache_add() so that a zeroising constructor is added for any cache size. - replaces calls to kmem_cache_zalloc() by kmem_cache_alloc() Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
