Subject: [PATCH 2/2] kho: fix restoring of contiguous ranges of order-0 pages
Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2025 13:09:17 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251125110917.843744-3-rppt@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251125110917.843744-1-rppt@kernel.org>
From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@kernel.org>
When contiguous ranges of order-0 pages are restored, kho_restore_page()
calls prep_compound_page() with the first page in the range and order as
parameters and then kho_restore_pages() calls split_page() to make sure all
pages in the range are order-0.
However, since split_page() is not intended to split compound pages and
with VM_DEBUG enabled it will trigger a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE().
Update kho_restore_page() so that it will use prep_compound_page() when it
restores a folio and make sure it properly sets page count for both large
folios and ranges of order-0 pages.
