为什么我的模块无法处理内核分页请求?

这是我使用dequeue_huge_page_vma()和alloc_buddy_huge_page()分配一个大页面的模块。为了使它们与vma无关,我从__get_vm_area_node()获得可用的vm区域,然后获取其虚拟地址。我想分配一个2MB的页面,但内核说:

[   84.944634] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc90013d02000

这是一个非常古老的问题,但是到底是什么......

由于多种原因,

__ get_vm_area_node()可以返回NULL,无条件地推断其返回值。这是不明智的。
