2026-08-24mm: debug_page_alloc: fix NULL buf in debug_guardpage_minorder_setupYe Liu
If the kernel command line includes "debug_guardpage_minorder" without an equals sign (i.e., no value is provided), the early parameter parser passes a NULL buf pointer to the setup function. kstrtouint() does not perform a NULL check on its input and calls directly into kstrtoull() which dereferences s[0] unconditionally, leading to a NULL pointer dereference and early boot crash. Additionally, the error path's pr_err("%s", buf) would also crash with a NULL format argument.

2026-08-24mm: debug_page_alloc: fix type mismatch for debug_guardpage_minorderYe Liu
The debug_guardpage_minorder local variable is declared as unsigned int, but debug_guardpage_minorder_setup() uses unsigned long and kstrtoul() to parse the value. Use kstrtouint() with unsigned int local variable to match the actual type of _debug_guardpage_minorder. Also fix the format specifier from %lu to %u accordingly.

2025-05-12mm/debug_page_alloc: improve error message for invalid guardpage minorderYe Liu
When an invalid debug_guardpage_minorder value is provided, include the user input in the error message. This helps users and developers diagnose configuration issues more easily. No functional change.

2024-04-25mm: page_alloc: consolidate free page accountingJohannes Weiner
Free page accounting currently happens a bit too high up the call stack, where it has to deal with guard pages, compaction capturing, block stealing and even page isolation. This is subtle and fragile, and makes it difficult to hack on the code. Now that type violations on the freelists have been fixed, push the accounting down to where pages enter and leave the freelist.

2024-01-08mm, treewide: rename MAX_ORDER to MAX_PAGE_ORDERKirill A. Shutemov
commit 23baf831a32c ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely") has changed the definition of MAX_ORDER to be inclusive. This has caused issues with code that was not yet upstream and depended on the previous definition. To draw attention to the altered meaning of the define, rename MAX_ORDER to MAX_PAGE_ORDER.
