From 7258ae5c5a2ce2f5969e8b18b881be40ab55433d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Morse Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2017 14:02:29 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm/memory-failure.c: use compound_head() flags for huge pages memory_failure() chooses a recovery action function based on the page flags. For huge pages it uses the tail page flags which don't have anything interesting set, resulting in: > Memory failure: 0x9be3b4: Unknown page state > Memory failure: 0x9be3b4: recovery action for unknown page: Failed Instead, save a copy of the head page's flags if this is a huge page, this means if there are no relevant flags for this tail page, we use the head pages flags instead. This results in the me_huge_page() recovery action being called: > Memory failure: 0x9b7969: recovery action for huge page: Delayed For hugepages that have not yet been allocated, this allows the hugepage to be dequeued.
