Subject: [PATCH 3/7] vmw_balloon: fix inflation of 64-bit GFNs
Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2018 04:03:55 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180613110359.109033-4-namit@vmware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180613110359.109033-1-namit@vmware.com>

When balloon batching is not supported by the hypervisor, the guest
frame number (GFN) must fit in 32-bit. However, due to a bug, this check
was mistakenly ignored. In practice, when total RAM is greater than
16TB, the balloon does not work currently, making this bug unlikely to
happen.

Fixes: ef0f8f112984 ("VMware balloon: partially inline
vmballoon_reserve_page.")
