More details\ncan be found from the WARN_ON() statement in xas_split_alloc(). In our\ntest whose code is attached below, we hit the WARN_ON() on ARM64 system\nwhere the base page size is 64KB and huge page size is 512MB. The issue\nwas reported long time ago and some discussions on it can be found here\n[1].\n\n[1] https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-xfs/msg75404.html\n\nIn order to fix the issue, we need to adjust MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER to one\nsupported by xarray and avoid PMD-sized page cache if needed. The code\nchanges are suggested by David Hildenbrand.\n\nPATCH[1] adjusts MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER to that supported by xarray\nPATCH[2-3] avoids PMD-sized page cache in the synchronous readahead path\nPATCH[4] avoids PMD-sized page cache for shmem files if needed\n\nTest program\n============\n# cat test.c\n#define _GNU_SOURCE\n#include \n#include \n#include \n#include \n#include \n#include \n#include \n#include \n\n#define TEST_XFS_FILENAME\t\"/tmp/data\"\n#define TEST_SHMEM_FILENAME\t\"/dev/shm/data\"\n#define TEST_MEM_SIZE\t\t0x20000000\n\nint main(int argc, char **argv)\n{\n\tconst char *filename;\n\tint fd = 0;\n\tvoid *buf = (void *)-1, *p;\n\tint pgsize = getpagesize();\n\tint ret;\n\n\tif (pgsize != 0x10000) {\n\t\tfprintf(stderr, \"64KB base page size is required\\n\");\n\t\treturn -EPERM;\n\t}\n\n\tsystem(\"echo force > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled\");\n\tsystem(\"rm -fr /tmp/data\");\n\tsystem(\"rm -fr /dev/shm/data\");\n\tsystem(\"echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches\");\n\n\t/* Open xfs or shmem file */\n\tfilename = TEST_XFS_FILENAME;\n\tif (argc > 1 && !strcmp(argv[1], \"shmem\"))\n\t\tfilename = TEST_SHMEM_FILENAME;\n\n\tfd = open(filename, O_CREAT | O_RDWR | O_TRUNC);\n\tif (fd < 0) {\n\t\tfprintf(stderr, \"Unable to open <%s>\\n\", filename);\n\t\treturn -EIO;\n\t}\n\n\t/* Extend file size */\n\tret = ftruncate(fd, TEST_MEM_SIZE);\n\tif (ret) {\n\t\tfprintf(stderr, \"Error %d to ftruncate()\\n\", ret);\n\t\tgoto cleanup;\n\t}\n\n\t/* Create VMA */\n\tbuf = mmap(NULL, TEST_MEM_SIZE,\n\t\t PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);\n\tif (buf == (void *)-1) {\n\t\tfprintf(stderr, \"Unable to mmap <%s>\\n\", filename);\n\t\tgoto cleanup;\n\t}\n\n\tfprintf(stdout, \"mapped buffer at 0x%p\\n\", buf);\n\tret = madvise(buf, TEST_MEM_SIZE, MADV_HUGEPAGE);\n if (ret) {\n\t\tfprintf(stderr, \"Unable to madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE)\\n\");\n\t\tgoto cleanup;\n\t}\n\n\t/* Populate VMA */\n\tret = madvise(buf, TEST_MEM_SIZE, MADV_POPULATE_WRITE);\n\tif (ret) {\n\t\tfprintf(stderr, \"Error %d to madvise(MADV_POPULATE_WRITE)\\n\", ret);\n\t\tgoto cleanup;\n\t}\n\n\t/* Punch the file to enforce xarray split */\n\tret = fallocate(fd, FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE | FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE,\n \t\tTEST_MEM_SIZE -
