#1430382 — Crashes in -next due to 'mm, page_alloc: remove fair zone allocation policy'

Hi,

I see a lot of crashes with various architectures in next-20160623.
I bisected mips and sh; both bisect log point to the same patch.
Bisect log is attached. arm, ppc, and x86 images crash as well,
but I did not confirm if the same patch is the culprit there.

I tried to revert the patch, but that did not work due to subsequent patches
affecting the same code.

The series has been dropped. Due to conflicts with other patches, there
were a few bugs introduced, one which potentially corrupted memory. Just
to be sure though, what sort of workload crashed just in case I need to
adjust the test coverage?

This is just a basic qemu boot test. No workload at all.

For logs, please see the next column of the qemu test results at
http://kerneltests.org/builders. You might have to dive into individual builds
if you check after a more recent -next kernel has been made available and your
changes were dropped in that kernel. Test results are available for about
a month.

Build and test scripts are available at https://github.com/groeck/linux-build-test.

Hope this helps,

Ok, is there any chance you could test the mm-vmscan-node-lru-v8r12
branch from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux.git
please?

If not, I'll work on replicating it some time next week before the
series is reposted.

See the "testing" column at http://kerneltests.org/builders. "git describe"
is "v4.7-rc4-295-g572d768". Should be complete in a couple of hours.

That appears to be mostly passing unless I'm reading it wrong.  There are a
number of build failures but from patches pending in linux-next and mmotm
instead of from the patch series itself.

Thanks very much.

For the most part, yes. arm64 crashes, though, but I have no idea if
that is because of your series or because of some inherited problem.

Can you have a look ?
