On KVM guest with 4GB RAM, and add the following to the kernel command-line: 'default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G hugepages=1' Then boot the guest and check number of 1GB pages reserved: grep HugePages_Total /proc/meminfo When booting with "nokaslr" HugePages_Total is always 1. When booting without "nokaslr" sometimes HugePages_Total is zero (that is, reserving the 1GB page fails). It may need to boot a few times to trigger the issue. After investigation, the root cause is that kernel may be put in the only good 1GB huge page [0x40000000, 0x7fffffff] randomly. Below is the dmesg output snippet of the KVM guest. We can see that only [0x40000000, 0x7fffffff] region is good 1GB huge page, [0x100000000, 0x13fffffff] will be touched by memblock top-down allocation. [ +0.000000] e820: BIOS-provided physical RAM map: [ +0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000000009fbff] usable [ +0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x000000000009fc00-0x000000000009ffff] reserved [ +0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000000f0000-0x00000000000fffff] reserved [ +0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000000100000-0x00000000bffdffff] usable [ +0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000bffe0000-0x00000000bfffffff] reserved [ +0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000feffc000-0x00000000feffffff] reserved [ +0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x00000000fffc0000-0x00000000ffffffff] reserved [ +0.000000] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x000000013fffffff] usable And also on those bare-metal machines with larger memory, one less 1GB huge page might be got with KASLR enabled than 'nokaslr' specified case. It's also because that kernel might be randomized into those good 1GB huge pages. To fix this, firstly parse kernel command-line to get how many 1GB huge pages are specified. Then try to skip the specified number of 1GB huge pages when decide which memory region kernel can be randomized into. And also change the name of handle_mem_memmap() as handle_mem_options() since it doesn't only handle 'mem=' and 'memmap=', but include 'hugepagesxxx' now.
