      xen/boot: Disable NUMA for PV guests. · 8d54db79
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 提交于
      The hypervisor is in charge of allocating the proper "NUMA" memory
      and dealing with the CPU scheduler to keep them bound to the proper
      NUMA node. The PV guests (and PVHVM) have no inkling of where they
      run and do not need to know that right now. In the future we will
      need to inject NUMA configuration data (if a guest spans two or more
      NUMA nodes) so that the kernel can make the right choices. But those
      patches are not yet present.
      
      In the meantime, disable the NUMA capability in the PV guest, which
      also fixes a bootup issue. Andre says:
      
      "we see Dom0 crashes due to the kernel detecting the NUMA topology not
      by ACPI, but directly from the northbridge (CONFIG_AMD_NUMA).
      
      This will detect the actual NUMA config of the physical machine, but
      will crash about the mismatch with Dom0's virtual memory. Variation of
      the theme: Dom0 sees what it's not supposed to see.
      
      This happens with the said config option enabled and on a machine where
      this scanning is still enabled (K8 and Fam10h, not Bulldozer class)
      
      We have this dump then:

      so we just disable NUMA scanning by setting numa_off=1.

      edac_mc: edac_mc_free() cannot assume mem_ctl_info is registered in sysfs. · faa2ad09
      Shaun Ruffell 提交于
      Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in edac_unregister_sysfs() on
      system boot introduced in 3.6-rc1.
      
      Since commit 7a623c03 ("edac: rewrite the sysfs code to use struct
      device") edac_mc_alloc() no longer initializes embedded kobjects in
      struct mem_ctl_info.  Therefore edac_mc_free() can no longer simply
      decrement a kobject reference count to free the allocated memory unless
      the memory controller driver module had also called edac_mc_add_mc().
      
      Now edac_mc_free() will check if the newly embedded struct device has
      been registered with sysfs before using either the standard device
      release functions or freeing the data structures itself with logic
      pulled out of the error path of edac_mc_alloc().
      
      The BUG this patch resolves for me:
