From d466f2fcb32cd97fd586bfa33f5dba3ac78aadb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2009 11:50:03 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] HWPOISON: Add page flag for poisoned pages Hardware poisoned pages need special handling in the VM and shouldn't be touched again. This requires a new page flag. Define it here. The page flags wars seem to be over, so it shouldn't be a problem to get a new one. v2: Add TestSetHWPoison (suggested by Johannes Weiner) Acked-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen --- include/linux/page-flags.h | 17 ++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/include/linux/page-flags.h b/include/linux/page-flags.h index 2b87acfc5f8..9bc5fd9fdbf 100644 --- a/include/linux/page-flags.h +++ b/include/linux/page-flags.h @@ -51,6 +51,9 @@ * PG_buddy is set to indicate that the page is free and in the buddy system * (see mm/page_alloc.c). * + * PG_hwpoison indicates that a page got corrupted in hardware and contains + * data with incorrect ECC bits that triggered a machine check.
