Commit Message

Qian Cai Sept. 6, 2019, 11:17 p.m. UTC
The commit 108c14858b9e ("locking/lockdep: Add support for dynamic
keys") introduced a boot warning on powerpc below, because since the
commit 2d4f567103ff ("KVM: PPC: Introduce kvm_tmp framework") adds
kvm_tmp[] into the .bss section and then free the rest of unused spaces
back to the page allocator.

kernel_init
  kvm_guest_init
    kvm_free_tmp
      free_reserved_area
        free_unref_page
          free_unref_page_prepare

Later, alloc_workqueue() happens to allocate some pages from there and
trigger the warning at,

if (WARN_ON_ONCE(static_obj(key)))

Fix it by adding a generic helper arch_is_bss_hole() to skip those areas
in static_obj(). Since kvm_free_tmp() is only done early during the
boot, just go lockless to make the implementation simple for now.

arch_is_bss_hole() should use a 'bool' - but other than that, this 
looks good to me, if the PowerPC maintainers agree too.

I thought about making it a bool in the first place, but since all other similar helpers
(arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed(), arch_is_kernel_text(), arch_is_kernel_data() etc)
could be bool too but are not, I kept arch_is_bss_hole() just to be “int” for consistent.

Although then there is is_kernel_rodata() which is bool. I suppose I’ll change
arch_is_bss_hole() to bool, and then could have a follow-up patch to covert all similar
helpers to return boo instead.

Sounds good to me.
