[PATCH v2 1/4] mm,hwpoison,hugetlb,memory_hotplug: hotremove memory section with hwpoisoned hugepage

From: Naoya Horiguchi
Date: Mon Sep 05 2022 - 02:22:18 EST


From: Naoya Horiguchi <naoya.horiguchi@xxxxxxx>

HWPoisoned page is not supposed to be accessed once marked, but currently
such accesses can happen during memory hotremove because do_migrate_range()
can be called before dissolve_free_huge_pages() is called.

Move dissolve_free_huge_pages() before scan_movable_pages(). Recently
delayed dissolve has been implemented, so the dissolving can turn
a hwpoisoned hugepage into 4kB hwpoison page, which memory hotplug can
handle safely.
