From b38e5962f8ed0d2a2b28a887fc2221f7f41db119 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Naoya Horiguchi Date: Fri, 28 Jun 2019 12:06:53 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: soft-offline: return -EBUSY if set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page() fails The pass/fail of soft offline should be judged by checking whether the raw error page was finally contained or not (i.e. the result of set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page()), but current code do not work like that. It might lead us to misjudge the test result when set_hwpoison_free_buddy_page() fails. Without this fix, there are cases where madvise(MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE) may not offline the original page and will not return an error.
