[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH V2] xen/arm: Initialize acpi_disabled to true during declaration
On the device-tree-based Arm64 system, if Xen is built with
CONFIG_ACPI=y, CONFIG_STATIC_MEMORY=y, and the static memory range
is provided in the host device tree, the BUG is triggered in
common/page_alloc.c during Xen's early boot. The BUG occurs when
the first page from the static range is fed to the domain
sub-allocator and finally ends up in mark_page_free().
The pg->count_info & PGC_state is not in the state that
the code expects to see there.

[snip]
The problem is that the static range gets mistakenly unreserved
in populate_boot_allocator() and reaches init_boot_pages().
This happens since by the time the populate_boot_allocator()
is executed, the evaluated in fw_unreserved_regions()
an acpi_disabled variable is still false and as the result
the dt_unreserved_regions() which should simply skip that static range
does not get called. The acpi_disabled will be set to the actual value
(in our case it is true) later on in acpi_boot_table_init().
The important question is why acpi_disabled is false by the time
setup_mm() is executed. With CONFIG_ACPI=n it is a macro that is always
true, but with CONFIG_ACPI=y it is a boolean that is false from the very
beggining, even though the entire acpi_boot_table_init() (which is called
after setup_mm()) is written with the assumption that ACPI is off by default
at the start. So, initialize acpi_disabled to true during declaration
if CONFIG_ACPI=y to avoid an issue and match to acpi_boot_table_init().

V2:
- drop post-commit remark
- use the approach suggested by Michal
- update commit subject (WAS xen/device-tree: Switch back to
dt_unreserved_regions() in boot allocator)
