On machines with much memory (> 2 TByte) and log_mtts_per_seg == 0, a max_order of 31 will be passed to mlx_buddy_init(), which results in s = BITS_TO_LONGS(1 << 31) becoming a negative value, leading to kvmalloc_array() failure when it is converted to size_t. mlx4_core 0000:b1:00.0: Failed to initialize memory region table, aborting mlx4_core: probe of 0000:b1:00.0 failed with error -12 Fix this issue by changing the left shifting operand from a signed literal to an unsigned one.

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.
