Comparing prep_compound_page() and prep_compound_gigantic_page(), prep_compound_gigantic_page() doesn't initialize compound_mapcount, so simply doing like below should fix this (I briefly confirmed it.) diff --git a/mm/hugetlb.c b/mm/hugetlb.c index 8afd5fc09f70..9b931134e9df 100644 --- a/mm/hugetlb.c +++ b/mm/hugetlb.c @@ -1286,6 +1286,7 @@ static void prep_compound_gigantic_page(struct page *page, unsigned int order) set_page_count(p, 0); set_compound_head(p, page); } + atomic_set(compound_mapcount_ptr(page), -1); } /* BTW, BUG_ON() in free_huge_page() can be replaced with improved version of VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() to help our debugging. Could you work on it, too? Thanks, Naoya Horiguchi
