Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] kho: fix deferred init of kho scratch
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2026 17:52:02 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260220165203.3213375-2-mclapinski@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260220165203.3213375-1-mclapinski@google.com>
Currently, mm_core_init calls kho_memory_init, which calls
kho_release_scratch.
If DEFERRED is enabled, kho_release_scratch will first initialize the
struct pages of kho scratch. This is not needed. We can just let
page_alloc_init_late init it.
Next, kho_release_scratch will mark scratch as MIGRATE_CMA. If DEFERRED
is enabled, this will be overwritten later in deferred_free_pages.
To fix this, I removed the whole kho_release_scratch.
Marking the pageblocks as MIGRATE_CMA now happens in kho_init, which
runs after deferred_free_pages.
