mm: zone_end_pfn is too small
Booting with 32 TBytes memory hits BUG at mm/page_alloc.c:552! (output below).
The key hint is "page
4294967296 outside zone".
4294967296 = 0x100000000 (bit 32 is set).
The problem is in include/linux/mmzone.h:
530 static inline unsigned zone_end_pfn(const struct zone *zone)
531 {
532 return zone->zone_start_pfn + zone->spanned_pages;
533 }
zone_end_pfn is "unsigned" (32 bits). Changing it to
"unsigned long" (64 bits) fixes the problem.
zone_end_pfn() was added recently in commit
108bcc96ef70 ("mm: add & use
zone_end_pfn() and zone_spans_pfn()")
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/include/linux/mmzone.h?id=
108bcc96ef7047c02cad4d229f04da38186a3f3f
Output from the failure.
