Subject: [PATCH] HWPOISON: Implement hwpoison-on-free for soft offlining
From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>
Hard offlining was always able to offline most kernel pages by setting the
HWPoison flag on it and waiting for the next free. This works on all
pages that get eventually freed.
This didn't work for soft offlining unfortunately, because it cannot
safely set the HWPoison flag on a still alive page. Handle this
by introducing a second page flag HWPoisonOnFree that is handled
by page free and enables HWPoison then. This does not add any
overhead to page free because it can be handled as a bad flag
which are already checked for.
Since page flags are scarce on 32bit architectures this is only done on
64bit .
