Subject: [PATCH v2] mm/cma: move put_page_testzero() out of VM_WARN_ON in cma_release()
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 21:28:52 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260225022853.2347732-1-ziy@nvidia.com> (raw)
When CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is not set, VM_WARN_ON is a NOP. Putting any statement
with side effect inside it is incorrect. Collect all put_page_testzero()
results and check the sum using WARN instead after the loop.
Fixes: 9bda131c6093 ("mm: cma: add cma_alloc_frozen{_compound}()")
Reported-by: Ron Economos <re@w6rz.net>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1b17c38f-30d3-4bb4-a7e1-e74b19ada885@w6rz.net/
Suggested-by: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com>
Signed-off-by: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com>

From V1:
- Collect all put_page_testzero() results and do a single WARN after the
loop.
