Anton Blanchard a11940978b powerpc: Fix oops when echoing bad values to /sys/devices/system/memory/probe ... If we echo an address the hypervisor doesn't like to /sys/devices/system/memory/probe we oops the box: # echo 0x10000000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe kernel BUG at arch/powerpc/mm/hash_utils_64.c:541! The backtrace is: create_section_mapping arch_add_memory add_memory memory_probe_store sysdev_class_store sysfs_write_file vfs_write SyS_write In create_section_mapping we BUG if htab_bolt_mapping returned an error. A better approach is to return an error which will propagate back to userspace. Rerunning the test with this patch applied: # echo 0x10000000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>		2011-09-20 15:53:23 +10:00
