From 04013513cc84c401c7de9023ff3eda7863fc4add Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlastimil Babka Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2020 19:13:30 -0800 Subject: mm, page_alloc: do not rely on the order of page_poison and init_on_alloc/free parameters Patch series "cleanup page poisoning", v3. I have identified a number of issues and opportunities for cleanup with CONFIG_PAGE_POISON and friends: - interaction with init_on_alloc and init_on_free parameters depends on the order of parameters (Patch 1) - the boot time enabling uses static key, but inefficienty (Patch 2) - sanity checking is incompatible with hibernation (Patch 3) - CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_NO_SANITY can be removed now that we have init_on_free (Patch 4) - CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_ZERO can be most likely removed now that we have init_on_free (Patch 5) This patch (of 5): Enabling page_poison=1 together with init_on_alloc=1 or init_on_free=1 produces a warning in dmesg that page_poison takes precedence. However, as these warnings are printed in early_param handlers for init_on_alloc/free, they are not printed if page_poison is enabled later on the command line (handlers are called in the order of their parameters), or when init_on_alloc/free is always enabled by the respective config option - before the page_poison early param handler is called, it is not considered to be enabled. This is inconsistent. We can remove the dependency on order by making the init_on_* parameters only set a boolean variable, and postponing the evaluation after all early params have been processed. Introduce a new init_mem_debugging_and_hardening() function for that, and move the related debug_pagealloc processing there as well. As a result init_mem_debugging_and_hardening() knows always accurately if init_on_* and/or page_poison options were enabled. Thus we can also optimize want_init_on_alloc() and want_init_on_free(). We don't need to check page_poisoning_enabled() there, we can instead not enable the init_on_* static keys at all, if page poisoning is enabled. This results in a simpler and more effective code.
