      x86: Do not free zero sized per cpu areas · eed63519
      Ian Campbell 提交于
      This avoids an infinite loop in free_early_partial().
      
      Add a warning to free_early_partial() to catch future problems.
      
      -v5: put back start > end back into WARN_ONCE()
      -v6: use one line for warning, suggested by Linus
      -v7: more tests
      -v8: remove the function name as suggested by Johannes
           WARN_ONCE() will print out that function name.

      x86: Make sure free_init_pages() frees pages on page boundary · c967da6a
      Yinghai Lu 提交于
      When CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM=y, it could use memory more effiently, or
      in a more compact fashion.
      
      Example:
      
       Allocated new RAMDISK: 00ec2000 - 0248ce57
       Move RAMDISK from 000000002ea04000 - 000000002ffcee56 to 00ec2000 - 0248ce56
      
      The new RAMDISK's end is not page aligned.
      Last page could be shared with other users.
      
      When free_init_pages are called for initrd or .init, the page
      could be freed and we could corrupt other data.
      
      code segment in free_init_pages():
      
       |        for (; addr < end; addr += PAGE_SIZE) {
       |                ClearPageReserved(virt_to_page(addr));
       |                init_page_count(virt_to_page(addr));
       |                memset((void *)(addr & ~(PAGE_SIZE-1)),
       |                        POISON_FREE_INITMEM, PAGE_SIZE);
       |                free_page(addr);
       |                totalram_pages++;
       |        }
      
      last half page could be used as one whole free page.
      
      So page align the boundaries.
      
      -v2: make the original initramdisk to be aligned, according to
           Johannes, otherwise we have the chance to lose one page.
           we still need to keep initrd_end not aligned, otherwise it could
           confuse decompressor.
      -v3: change to WARN_ON instead, suggested by Johannes.
      -v4: use PAGE_ALIGN, suggested by Johannes.
           We may fix that macro name later to PAGE_ALIGN_UP, and PAGE_ALIGN_DOWN
           Add comments about assuming ramdisk start is aligned
           in relocate_initrd(), change to re get ramdisk_image instead of save it
           to make diff smaller. Add warning for wrong range, suggested by Johannes.
      -v6: remove one WARN()
           We need to align beginning in free_init_pages()
           do not copy more than ramdisk_size, noticed by Johannes
