commit 460a79e18842caca6fa0c415de4a3ac1e671ac50 upstream. __setup() handlers should return 1 if the command line option is handled and 0 if not (or maybe never return 0; it just pollutes init's environment). The only reason that this particular __setup handler does not pollute init's environment is that the setup string contains a '.', as in "cgroup.memory". This causes init/main.c::unknown_boottoption() to consider it to be an "Unused module parameter" and ignore it. (This is for parsing of loadable module parameters any time after kernel init.) Otherwise the string "cgroup.memory=whatever" would be added to init's environment strings. Instead of relying on this '.' quirk, just return 1 to indicate that the boot option has been handled. Note that there is no warning message if someone enters: cgroup.memory=anything_invalid Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220222005811.10672-1-rdunlap@infradead.org Fixes: f7e1cb6ec51b0 ("mm: memcontrol: account socket memory in unified hierarchy memory controller") Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Reported-by: Igor Zhbanov <i.zhbanov@omprussia.ru> Link: lore.kernel.org/r/64644a2f-4a20-bab3-1e15-3b2cdd0defe3@omprussia.ru Reviewed-by: Michal Koutný <mkoutny@suse.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov.dev@gmail.com> Cc: Roman Gushchin <roman.gushchin@linux.dev> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
