Subject: xen/e820: if there is no dom0_mem=, don't tweak extra_pages.
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e3b73c4a25e9a5705b4ef28b91676caf01f9bc9f;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

xen/e820: if there is no dom0_mem=, don't tweak extra_pages.

The patch "xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM"
(d312ae878b6aed3912e1acaaf5d0b2a9d08a4f11) breaks machines that
do not use 'dom0_mem=' argument with:

reserve RAM buffer: 000000133f2e2000 - 000000133fffffff
(XEN) mm.c:4976:d0 Global bit is set to kernel page fffff8117e
(XEN) domain_crash_sync called from entry.S
(XEN) Domain 0 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#0:
...

The reason being that the last E820 entry is created using the
'extra_pages' (which is based on how many pages have been freed).
The mentioned git commit sets the initial value of 'extra_pages'
using a hypercall which returns the number of pages (if dom0_mem
has been used) or -1 otherwise. If the later we return with
MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES as basis for calculation:

    return min(max_pages, MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES);

and use it:

     extra_limit = xen_get_max_pages();
     if (extra_limit >= max_pfn)
             extra_pages = extra_limit - max_pfn;
     else
             extra_pages = 0;

which means we end up with extra_pages = 128GB in PFNs (33554432)
- 8GB in PFNs (2097152, on this specific box, can be larger or smaller),
and then we add that value to the E820 making it:

  Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved)
  Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000133f2e2000 (usable)

which is clearly wrong. It should look as so:

  Xen: 00000000ff000000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved)
  Xen: 0000000100000000 - 000000027fbda000 (usable)

Naturally this problem does not present itself if dom0_mem=max:X
is used.
